Lisa Lange is the Senior Vice President, Communications at PETA. Lange has expressed female supremacist sentiments.[1][2]
Quotes
The PETA website quotes Lang as saying:
"I used to be a frequent guest on The O’Reilly Factor and other talk shows on which anti-animal guests would be real bullies. I remember one instance in which two of them were yelling over me, trying to prevent me from getting a word in edgewise. One even referred to me as “Osama bin Laden.” But it just didn’t bother me. I realized that they were the ones coming across as “out there” and reminded myself to keep my eye on the prize: speaking up for animals.
Hunters have called in to radio shows that I’ve been on, saying that if they see me on the street, they’ll shoot me. Trappers have spit on me. A hunter who recognized me at a shopping mall threatened me. And recently, SeaWorld’s head of security threw me to the ground and sat on me while he bent my arm backwards. All these things are done to intimidate, and I think that the idea is often that women will fold, but we don’t.
I love my male colleagues and friends, too, but there’s a strength and a quickness to women. We’re always 10 steps ahead."[3][4]
