“An animal activist entered a San Francisco restaurant on Saturday, Sept. 27, and delivered a tearful, dramatic speech about a pet chicken she rescued from death,” reports Amy Graff of SFGate: Standing in the middle of a downtown French brasserie called Bluestem, Kelly Atlas of Oakland spoke with emotion about her “little girl.” “She was very abused for her entire life,” Atlas says. “She was terrified. “She has a very determined look in her eyes wherever she goes. And she was hurt and abused her entire life because of this establishment and establishments like it.” The little girl is a chicken named Snow. The tears continuing to stream and the emotion heightening, Atlas goes on to tell restaurant patrons how she saved Snow’s life. “Someone was going to murder her,” she says. “I went in there with other humans and I took her out of there and if I hadn’t, she wouldn’t be with me right now. She would be gone, just like all of her sisters. “Someone was going to murder her and I can see you smiling and I can see you laughing but to her this is not funny.” At the end of her rant, Atlas cries out loudly urging diners to not eat Snow’s sisters. (She’ll be here all week. Don’t forget to tip your waitress. Try the veal.)
