PETA CAUGHT killing animals after "rescuing" them from local shelters.

On CNN just now.

How can anybody support these scum I don't know.

Said they were going to find homes for the dogs and cats, agents from the local humane society followed them right after they were given animals. Most didn't survive leaving the parking lot!

This is more than disgusting.

I hope to god this isnt true.

:popcorn:

The "p" does not stand for "PeTA"

Wait, probably not the best time to say that. :popcorn:

I'm sure they'll have a suitably hand-wringing excuse that somehow relates to evil fat men who eat meat.

"Most didn't survive leaving the parking lot"

Sorry, I'm really no fan of PETA, but this doesn't pass the sniff test.

I thought you Skep guys used Occam's Razor, Popper's Postulate, and a big old mailing list!

:evilgrin:

This also happened some months ago. I think a PeTA worker was caught dumping about 20 ethanized dog carcasses. Of course, there was a Perfectly Reasonable Explanation that wouldn't have been accepted if anyone other than PeTA had done it.

Extraordinary Clams Require Extraordinary Cocktail Sauce

Makes no sense, and I don't believe anything on CNN anyway.

Yes, PETA in their struggle to save animals would KILL them, for sport and pleasure.

Honey, lemme clue ya, they're not republicans.

They HAVE ethics.

I love animals, but those PETA people seemed just a bit over the top to me. They're outrageous and loud, but it seemed all for show. They just wanted attention.

Something to do with: keeping animals as pets is a form of enslavement, and being in tune with the souls of animals as they are, they know that dogs and kitties would rather be dead than slaves.

I thought for stuff to be posted in here there had to be a link and the title of the post had to be the title of the story or link.

Is this real or are you just trolling?

PETA Tricked People Out of Their Money.

Just one link of many.

--p!

From the "link" you provide:


"And yet PETA is receiving millions, perhaps billions of dollars in donations under the concept that they will do anything and everything in their power to save all animals. I want to know why PETA will not spend the money to save these sick animals, when they talk so much about protecting the rights of these animals?"

It is more than just about the money. It is about the quality of life not just about the quantity of life. Animals are social creatures that deserve social interaction, a lot of care and attention, etc. PETA's budget is growing every year but is still under 30 million dollars. PETA could hire someone at 20K to properly care for a 100 or so animals or they could spend that 20K on animal overpopulation education, billboards, spay and neuter clinics, etc. and prevent the unwanted births of literally thousands of animals and therefore prevent the suffering of thousands of animals. PETA is about education and information, it is about changing the culture. Our county shelter euthanizes well over over 8,000 animals a year, with only 9% of cats adopted and not quite 40% of dogs adupted,

:eyes:

...if the animals are extremely malnourished or very sick, euthanasia is the most Humane and ethical thing to do. Better than a slow and painful death.

I saw the report. It's inevitable that shelters have to euthanize animals which are not adoptable, and for which PETA or whichever organization is providing shelter has insufficient money to provide. I support my local no-kill shelter, but there are still plenty of animals destroyed all the time, and from the CNN report itself, they are destroyed in a much more painful manner. There are horrific killing devices that cost little money per death. Economics is the driving factor.

And your honor, for the record, I eat meat, though I'm not some irrational PETA hater.

oh yeah spay and neuter your pets!

and your republican friends. lol jk

Don't get me started on the failures of the NOLA rescue effort. Elitist assholes is what they are.

"NO LINK! NO LINK!"

200 pro-PeTA DUers are hitting "ALERT" right now and quoting the Rules.

I guess we'll have to re-post in an hour when the CNN night crew gets the story on the website.

--p!

I'm gone miss you, no-link PETA post. Take me with you, no-link PETA post.

Peta is no more immune to the infiltration of assholes than the police force or Congress.

WHOA, am I being fair to PeTa? :shrug:

You know how savage PETA animal rights folk can be when they get around helpless, defenseless animals. Like sharks at the scent of blood, they just can't resist tearing them apart limb by limb. PETA's mantra: KILL KILL KILL! IF a PETA person sees a poodle, they will tear that poodle apart limb by limb.

Here is PETA's stance towards euthanasia:

I am not saying PETA, HSUS, and other animal rights groups are perfect... but animals are a lot better off because groups like this exist, raising issues and awareness then if they didn't.

Don't try and hide behind your supposed love of animals as the reason you despise PETA. If you truly loved animals you would realize that the amount of suffering the animals face at the hands of the industries of cruelty and human negligence, indifference and abuse are much worse in total than the hypothetical PETA slaughter-mobile full of wolf-like blood-thirsty PETA employees that prey upon animal shelters and rip puppies from the arms of children about to adopt them just so they can rip them limb by limb "before leaving the parking lot."

"Don't try and hide behind your supposed love of animals as the reason you despise PETA."

More than a dozen have called for a link -- immediately.

Turn the TV on if you have CNN. They usually have a 15- to 30-minute cycle of news stories and a 5-minute cycle for their bottom-of-the-screen headline crawl.
