Peta
 
While doing a search for whether or not the MADD founder was convicted of DUI, I came across this website:

http://www.activistcash.com/organization_overview.cfm/oid/21

I started looking at the various groups profiled, and PETA is by far the scariest:

Quote:

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has been described as "by far the most successful radical organization in America." The key word is radical. PETA seeks "total animal liberation," according to its president and co-founder, Ingrid Newkirk. That means no meat or dairy, of course; but it also means no aquariums, no circuses, no hunting or fishing, no fur or leather, and no medical research using animals. PETA is even opposed to the use of seeing-eye dogs.
...
Amidst the dozens of animal rights organizations, PETA occupies the niche of -- in Newkirk's own words -- "complete press sluts." Endlessly seeking media exposure, PETA sends out dozens of press releases every week.
...
PETA has even begun to adopt the tactics of an ALF offshoot known as SHAC (Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty). This group is notorious for taking protests outside the boardroom and into the living room, attacking their targets at their homes.

In 2001, three masked SHAC members brutally bludgeoned a medical researcher outside his home in England. The lead attacker was arrested and sentenced to three years in prison. A few months later, SHAC attacked another research industry employee on his doorstep with a chemical spray to his eyes, leaving him temporarily blinded and writhing in pain. The following year, Newkirk was asked her opinion of SHAC in the Boston Herald. Her response? "More power to SHAC if they can get someone's attention."
...
PETA spends less than one percent of its multi-million dollar budget actually helping animals. The group euthanized (killed) more than 1,900 animals in 2003 alone -- that's over 85 percent of the animals it received. In fact, from July 1998 through the end of 2003, PETA killed over 10,000 dogs, cats, and other "companion animals" at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. That's more than five animals every day. On its 2002 federal income-tax return, PETA claimed a $9,370 expense for a giant walk-in freezer, the kind most people use as a meat locker or for ice-cream storage. But animal-rights activists don't eat meat or dairy foods. So far, the group hasn't confirmed the obvious -- that it's using the appliance to store the bodies of its victims.
...
A group misleadingly named the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) has duped the press into believing that it is an association of conscientious doctors promoting good nutrition. In fact, it is a PETA front group. PCRM and PETA share money, offices, and staff. The American Medical Association calls PCRM a "pseudo-physicians group," has demanded that PCRM stop its "inappropriate and unethical tactics used to manipulate public opinion," and argues that PCRM has been "blatantly misleading Americans" and "concealing its true purpose as an animal 'rights' organization."
...
PETA's website for kids puts a skull and crossbones next to the logo of Disney's Animal Kingdom and tells the horror story of a fast food restaurant employee who "had taken a patty into the potty with her, then returned and said she had peed on it." It hands out trading cards to kids that allege drinking milk will make them fat, pimply, flatulent, and phlegm-ridden. PETA also has a child-themed website, and a kiddie-oriented magazine, called GRRR! Kids Bite Back. The name is significant, as it is intended to prep children to identify with the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), which has long-used the phrase "bite back" in its promotional materials. In fact, as early as 1991, convicted ALF arsonist and PETA grantee Rodney Coronado was calling his own crime spree "Operation Bite Back." PETA also sends "humane education lecturer" Gary Yourofsky into high schools -- and even middle schools -- to promote the "animal liberation" agenda. Yourofsky is a convicted ALF criminal who has said he would support burning down medical research labs even if humans were trapped in the flames.
...
Most ominously, PETA president Ingrid Newkirk was involved in the multi-million-dollar arson at Michigan State University that resulted in a 57-month prison term for Animal Liberation Front bomber Rodney Coronado. At Coronado’s sentencing hearing, U.S. Attorney Michael Dettmer said that PETA’s Ingrid Newkirk arranged ahead of time to have Coronado send her a pair of FedEx packages from Michigan -- one on the day before he burned the lab down, and the other shortly afterward.
Sadly, my local newspaper has been duped into being a shill for PETA:

Caitlin Rosendorn of Bloomington, age 6, loves to pet animals. She declines to eat them.

The Stevenson Elementary School kindergartner also is undeniably cute.

Her love for animals, her dietary choice and her adorability fused to make her one of two World's Cutest Vegetarian Kids, as selected last month by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

If God didn't want us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them taste like meat.....

Peta is a terrorist group

mattdavis11 12-31-2007 07:38 AM

Damn! I thought this thread was going to be about hunting and people eating tasty animals.:(

Killing animals by throwing them in a chamber and sucking the air out of their lungs does not seem very ethical to me.

They always have some nubile young things taking off their clothes in Times Square to protest fur or meat or something. Starved for protein and attention I think..

My sister's kids got sucked into the "Pet rats" PETA thing. I asked her how many rats she had. She said 2. I told her than anything more than 1 was an infestation and wouldn't last very long, as only 2...

For the nubile ones I would be generous enough to offer her some of each.

Oh yeah, lots of them PETA people are absolute nuts and dangerous. I have no use for them or patience with them.

Why do the crazies in this world think it's their job to tell others how to live? Why can't they be satisfied with living their life the way they think they should and letting others do the same?


TO ANY PETA FOLLOWERS OUT THERE: F-off. Mind your own damed business. Get a life. Seek professional help. Stop letting others brainwash you.

PETA president Ingrid Newkirk was mauled by a pack of golden retrievers at her home this morning while eating a turkey snadwich. The group of golden retrievers made a statement "Who will throw the ball, not that *****".

peta---- we call it "Pain en the ass"

varmint 12-31-2007 09:29 AM

at 19 i "got volunteered" to work in a catholic relief hospital down on St. Lucia. I know a few of you have vacationed there. but get away from the resort, and it gets real third world real fast.

there was a dirt floor quanset hut restaurant down on the beach. i always got the $3 catch of the day and a heinekin special. most of the time i never thought about what i was shoveling in m mouth. but after eating one strange lump i had to ask. the cook told me "bottlenose dolphin".

made a peta chick almost cry/barf with that story.

PETA = people eating tasty animals

legion 12-31-2007 09:36 AM

I would love to go hunting sometime. Preferably upland birds.

Lord knows I have the proper shotgun(s) for it. :D

sammyg2 12-31-2007 09:38 AM

Nuke the baby harp seals for PETA!

azasadny 12-31-2007 12:40 PM

PETA is a bunch of "self hating humans". They hate themselves and unfortunately they don't have the guts to just kill themselves, so they want us all to join them...

9dreizig 12-31-2007 12:51 PM

nothing cleanses the soul like killing something....
