PETA Kills Animals

Hypocrisy is the mother of all credibility problems, and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has it in spades. While loudly complaining about the "unethical" treatment of animals by restaurant owners, grocers, farmers, scientists, anglers, and countless other Americans, the group has its own dirty little secret.

PETA kills animals. By the thousands.

PETA enjoys nearly $29 million in annual income, much of it raised from pet owners who think their donations actually help animals. Instead, the group spends huge sums on programs equating people who eat chicken with Nazis, scaring young children away from drinking milk, recruiting children into the radical animal-rights lifestyle, and intimidating businessmen and their families in their own neighborhoods. PETA has also spent tens of thousands of dollars defending arsonists and other violent extremists.

I am sure P.E.T.A. will respond with a statement that does not state whether or not they admit to killing animals, but does state that "if they did, they would do it ethically", right?

On a side note: Does anyone remember the original owner of peta.org? If so, how is he doing? I loved that site, before P.E.T.A. bullied it away from him. "People Eating Tasty Animals" was a truly awesome site.
