need articles on peta

[trickyasafox]

i always here mention of PETA doing terrible things, but aside from euthanising dogs and dumping them in dumpsters i cant find any articles. on another post there was mention of PETA setting bear traps for hunters, or firebombing animal testing facilities; are the articles that support these things still floating around? the thing with the dogs is enough to put me against PETA, but i really want to be able to formulate a well laid out arguement against those people that support PETA and i would really like more than one instance to back myself up.

thanks in advance, sorry this isnt really that gunny related

Here is some hate mail from PETA people to the "People Eating Tasty Animals" website (which was yanked from the rightful subscribers to "the original peta.org website" and given to PETA during the Clinton administration).

Pretty telling stuff about the sick way these PETA people think.

Here's the deal with them and guns, AFAIK: They are (not surprisingly) against hunting. Also, not surprising, they are full of leftists and liberals, who also happen to be gun-banners. So they do have a reason to be anti-hunting and probalby lots of their members are anti-guns-in-general. But I think they are pretty narrowly focused on animals and nothing else, and guns only in terms of being opposed to hunting.

As a non-hunter and non-meat-eater and animal rights person myself, I'm sympathetic towards their stated goals, but as a gun rights and free markets advocate, I think I wouldn't fit in with them "culturally".

I am very pro-animal, but the PETA folks IMHO are more anti-human than pro-animal.

There's a wife of a softball buddy of mine who's a vet. She was always a bit "off" but one time we were together and I was discussing an ad I saw that PETA put out comparing the holocaust with animal slaughter. Her reaction suprised me, pissed me off, and severly lowered my opinion on her.

She first turned her face away and asked me not to describe what they showed the animals doing....I then said, they didn't show the animals at all, it was the Jews that they were showing starving and dying (and their dead corpses). She then looked at me and said, "oh, that's alright then".

She could NOT be told how slaughter houses looked, but human slaughter was o.k.?! And she was NOT kidding. This lady cared more for the lives of animals than humans! This blew my mind that someone could react that way.

When you care more about an animal than your fellow human being....there's something seriously wrong with your values/priorities!
