Cute puppies and cuddly kittens gently snuggling in your bed gently licking you. Ah, how animals make even the meanest bastard turn into a light hearted little child. No wonder people want to protect them, they make great companions! They can be your best friend as a pet or your savior if you're blind. But is P.E.T.A. what everyone thinks it is?
Founded in 1980 by President Ingrid Newkirk, The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals took off to become the largest animal rights organization in the world. They claim to be against anything that exploits animals and are willing to do whatever it takes to free the animals from such cruelty. They do this by charitable donations made by kind-hearted people around the world.
The problem is that most of these people go against PETA's moral beliefs. See, PETA wants "total animal liberation" from the enslavement humanity put on it. Now that literally means that any animals in captivity (lions, bears, dogs, cats) would be set free in the world to live as they will. Before I go into that bullshit let me start things that PETA finds morally unacceptable that you probably have done in your lifetime. Have you ever fished? That's cruel and inhumane. How about going to a circus, a dog show, or riding a horse? You fucking scum! You're exploiting animals according to this group. But the big one....have you ever had an animal as a pet? Yes, PETA is even against pets, not to mention that they hate the cruel blind bastards who enslave seeing-eye dogs!
But the big thing PETA stands up against is Animal Testing, claiming that any testing done on animals does not produce medical technology that can be used on humans. Then why are we doing it? I know, because they're full of shit. Since we implimented humane animal testing (mostly on rats) we have found vaccines for Anthrax, Chicken Pox, Cholera, Flu, Hepatitis A and B, Rabies, Measles, Mumps, and Small Pox. We've found medications such as Insulin, Penicillin, Pain Killers, Anti-inflammatory drugs, and even found Chemotherapy though use of animal testing. Let's not even mention the discovery of Pacemakers, Artificial limbs and organs, Angioplasty, and a multitude of transplants! If we didn't have animal testing we'd lose 90 percent of our medical research! But it's not like PETA can do something to stop this, right?
Wrong. In 1992 Ingrid Newkird gave $45,300 to Rod Coronado after he firebombed an animal testing facility in Michigan. She went on to call him a 'fine young man' and give his father a $20,000 'loan' which he never had to pay back. When confronted with this allegation PETA stated that they neither agree nor disagree with violence, but meerly 'understand' it. When asked about animal tested medications and the like PETA claimed that it was 'an abhorrently cruel procedure that must end' and that anyone who used such animal tested derived materials were 'harming the animals'. Enter Mary Beth Sweetland.
Mary Beth Sweetland was diagnosed with type II diabetes and injects doctor-approved and animal-tested medication known as Insulin. The problem? She's the Vice-President of PETA! That, my friends, is the definition of a hypocrit. This woman, who strictly claims that animal-testing must be stopped, is using the benefits of such testing to save herself.
But now for the bombshell. Hidden away from the general public in a 2002 research of how the general publics money was spent is a sinister item. Way down at the bottom of the paper is a receipt for a walk-in freezer that cost $9,370. Now why would anyone have such a giant freezer? Two reasons. First, to store meat. Now we all know PETA wouldn't do that, but the second is what will break the hearts of many PETA supporters.
Cadavers. That's when I found this quote on the PETA website.. "Sometimes the only kind option for some animals is to put them to sleep forever." This quote was taken from President Ingrid Newkirk, when she wasn't busy planning campaigns of handing out horrific comic books and trading cards to children or making short movies comparing the Holocaust to what happens on farms*.
That's right, PETA kills animals. In 2002 we have found that 2103 animals were taken in and only 778 survived. PETA, in 2002, KILLED 1325 animals!
Hopefully this has opened your eyes to the hypocracy that is PETA and will get you to find a much more caring Animal Rights Organization. Thank you for your time.
* = PETA has been proud of their campaign of giving elementary school children comic books depicting their parents torturing and killing animals. On one such comic book, titled 'My Mommy Kills Animals', there is a picture of a sterotypical 1950's mother brutally stabbing a rabbit to death on a cutting board. They also spread exaggerated trading cards claiming that milk causes mucus to be created and showing a little boy with what appears to be half a gallon of snot dripping from his nose and mouth. This is the propoganda that they expose our innocent children to. Go online and search 'My mommy kills animals' or 'My daddy tortures animals' to see the horrific comics.
