Default PETA At It Again....wow an Elementary School really?

http://setxhomepage.com/fulltext/?nxd_id=91005

It's a move that has school officials concerned, and worried about how it will affect children.
People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals, or PETA, is planning a demonstration at Fletcher Elementary Tuesday afternoon.
Someone dressed as an elephant with a bloody bandage around its head will greet students after-school.
The fake elephant will hand out activity booklets and explain to kids and their parents the abuse PETA claims elephants endure in circuses.
PETA director Debbie Leahy tells Fox 4, "If children knew how animals suffer behind the scenes, their smiles would quickly turn to frowns."
Fletcher principal Mike Gonzales says he can't control what PETA wants to do, but he tells Fox 4, "I just hope they don't do something that will hurt or cause problems for the children." Gonzales doesn't believe PETA should target an elementary school. He says many parents wouldn't want their children exposed to such information.
The demonstration is being done in anticipation to the Ringling Brothers & Barnum & Bailey Circus coming to Beaumont on April 23rd.
It's coming to Ford Park.
