Ya know

my wife and i had a ru-in with a person who said they were with PETA (though...never verified...if thats even possible?)

PETA tells you to do this and do that and do this for your dog
*like what dog food you are 'supposed' to use*
how much exercise every day
how big a dog can be for the area you live in
how many vet visits a year, etc

We adopted a dog from the humane society - a VERY smart Austrailian Cattle Dog. We named him Jake.

Jake had a problem
and Jakes problem was his weight. he was a little chunky

But - hey, that doesnt mean people abused him with neglect and ill-intent.

Anyways - my wife and i were walking Jake when we caught the riot act from this snotty "peta" lady about how we're criminals for letting our dog get fat.

This woman followed us home, and stood outside my house writing down my address!!!! Well i called the police (lota good that did..)

Point is
For a PETA member, it seems (after comparing to your article) that living with a loving family and having a few extra pounds, is much much worse than being in a PETA death camp where your mortaility rate is less than 5%.

Thank you for the post, it really made my evening.

S & F

I can't stand PETA and their attitude. Nice for the world to finally see their true colours in a form that can be shown to everyone.

I'm impressed their figures tally nicely with the public documents they recovered. From the evidence provided it is true.

I am actually not suprised.

... well the numbers are staggering but the fact that they killed animals was not suprising.

here is me trying to understand the logic peta uses.

I am being held captive by beings that are stronger and smarter than me.

The feed me well and pet me often.

I cant go outside without a leash maybe for my own safety.

I get to play.

I would not be able to survive in the wild without my captors protection and provisions.

I feel a genuine love for and from my captors.

Maybe I should be destroyed because I cant live in the wild...

If it was me and I had the choice I would probably want to keep on living. I have two cats. Their names are Dane and Cosmo. If they could speak I am pretty sure there are two words that would not come from their mouths, "kill me".
Dane was given to the humane society because the people were allergic to cats.
Cosmo was found in an abandoned house.
I adopted both of these animals and saved them from death. I feel like peta never gave the other Danes and Cosmos a chance. its sad. well i am going to go be a little girl somewhere else. then i will play with my cats and reflect on the fact that the people for the ethical treatment of animals want Dane and Cosmo dead.



I of course will share this information with Dane and Cosmo so that they can be better prepared to fend of Cat burglars. lol. weak

H.P

I've had arguments with people about this. Their rebuttal is generally something along the lines of "how hard it is" to find homes for animals.

Well sure, that's true, but 12/3000 is a disgustingly low margin. With a $30 million reserve to tap into, you'd think they could find somewhere to put more than 12 animals.
