PETA: good or bad...you decide.
OK, so what does Rita have to say about all this now? First of all let me state, I'm a huge animal lover, I'm not a vegetarian, but I do not support PETA. Don't get me wrong here, I agree with PETA on one thing...animal cruelty is wrong, but to go as far as to target children, scaring them from drinking milk, etc is just a little bit too much. Anywho, here are some sentences for thought.
PETA is geared toward "total animal liberation"
What does this mean to you? Well to PETA it means no meat, no milk, no zoos, no circuses, no wool, no leather, no hunting, no fishing, and no pets-not even see-ing eye dogs.
Did you know that 2 PETA employees were arrested in NC and charged with 31 felony counts of cruelty to animals?
Did you know, that PETA regards humans as just another animal species? Although in MY OPINION, the fact that we can read, write, with the ability communicate in more than one language (ok other animals species communicate too, but can only in 1 "language")...I do believe the classification is a little simplistic regarding the human race
Did you know that B. Friedrich grouped Timothy McVeigh with some of the words greatest visionaries after refraining from eating meat during his last meal?
Did you know that PETA supports and provides aid to Earth Liberation Frong, and Animal Liberation Front-two groups that the FBI classifies as domestic terrorist threats?
The most shocking evidence against PETA, is in their own words.
"We have no ethical obligation to preserve the different breeds of livestock produced through selective breeding. ... One generation and out. We have no problem with the extinction of domestic animals. They are creations of human selective breeding." - Wayne Pacelle, Senior Vice-President oF HSUS, formerly of Friends for Animals; Quoted in Animal People, May, 1993
"The cat, like the dog, must disappear..... We should cut the domestic cat free from our dominance by neutering, neutering, and more neutering, until our pathetic version of the cat ceases to exist." -John Bryant, Fettered Kingdoms: An Examination of a Changing Ethic, PETA 1982, p.15.
"Six million Jews died in concentration camps, but six billion broiler chickens will die this year in slaughter houses." -Ingrid Newkirk, President, PETA, The Washington Post, November 13, 1983.
"As John Bryant has written in his book Fettered Kingdoms, they [pets] are like slaves, even if well-kept slaves." -PETA's Statement on Companion Animals
"I don't think you'd have to kill -- assassinate -- too many . . . I think for five lives, 10 lives, 15 human lives, we could save a million, two million, 10 million non-human lives." -Jerry Vlasak,longtime spokesman for the Washington-based Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), which the better-known People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) describes as a "related" organization.
"Even if animal tests produced a cure for AIDS, we'd be against it."- PETA President Ingrid Newkirk, September 1989, Vogue Magazine
"To those people who say, `My father is alive because of animal experimentation,' I say `Yeah, well, good for you. This dog died so your father could live.' Sorry, but I am just not behind that kind of trade off." -- Bill Maher, PETA celebrity spokesman.
On the consequences of stopping animal research: "Don't get the diseases in the first place, schmo." -- PETA's David Mathews (USA Today, July 27, 1994).
"I will be the last person to condemn ALF [the Animal Liberation Front]." Ingrid Newkirk, in the New York Daily News, December 7, 1997
*ALF is listed as a domestic terrorist organization by the FBI*
"Our campaigns are always geared towards children and they always will be" PETA vice president Dan Matthews, on the Fox News Network (December 19, 2003)
There is no rational basis for saying that a human being has special rights. A rat is a pig is a dog is a boy. They're all mammals. -- Ingrid Newkirk, PETA's President (in The Washington Times August 29, 1999).
"We feel that animals have the same rights as a retarded human child" -- Alex Pacheco, Director, PETA, (New York Times, January 14, 1989).
In 2005, received 2,145 "companion animals" (this figure doesn't include spray/neutered animals", and adopted 146. Now to the general public those figures would seem very good. BUT they killed 1,946 of those animals.

| LMAO @ PETA FOR THIS! |
[Sep. 25th, 2006|01:25 am] |
THIS IS PUBLIC ENTRY BECAUSE I STRONGLY BELIEVE IN EXPOSING PETA FOR WHAT THEY TRULLY ARE!
I found an article that made me hate Peta even more (concerning Steve Irwin {RIP MATE}) and as hard as it has been NOT to let it get to me, I finally gave in and wrote PETA with a little taste of my frustration against them.
My letter to PETA
First of all your organization HAS NO RIGHT to bash a man after his death! If you were so against Steve Irwin why didn't you come out and say everything you're organization is saying while he was alive?! As far as I'm concerned this cowardly act is horrible, and reflects poorly on your organization.
Do your research before you start speculating on the life of Steve Irwin and his role in wildlife conservation. He SAVED those animals from human threat and also to reduce their encounter with humans as to not harm human life.
As far as his daily routines that he performed at his zoo, they were not for "entertainment purposes"! He was simulating a natural environment for the crocodile to maintain his hunting and not just grow comfortable with a human throwing food into their enclosures!
Steve saved one crocodile that was being housed in a concrete enclosure, the crocodile NEVER knew the touch of dirt, never hunted on its own, never had a chance to thrive in the wild, yet Steve took him from the enclosure and took him in!!!
Steve educated the world on wildlife conservation through his passion and brought these animals into our lives in order to show us their beauty, and taught us how to respect them. He DIDN'T TARGET YOUNG CHILDREN AND SCARE THEM FROM VARIOUS THINGS SUCH AS MILK (which is very important in a young child's development!) IN ORDER TO SAVE ANIMALS!
