The proposal was to organize a barbeque as a way of getting back at PETA members, by doing what PETA finds most offensive (eating animals).
The proposal was to organize a barbeque as a way of protesting what PETA did, removing the parody site peta.org. I would find it difficult to protest the removal of this parody without there being People Eating Tasty Animals anywhere about.
It does happen to be something that will likely rile PETA officials (especially when we tell the media that PETA's inability to take a little needling without going all corporate was the precipitating factor for this event, and that therefore, in a very real way, it's *their* BBQ), but that isn't the reason - just an "added bonus".
