oh I'd love to see a picture

14,000 animals!? Wow. Makes me hate them all the more.

I hope I never see a headline such as "bad news for U.S. snake owners: all snakes over 4ft banned" because of these idiots.

I think it is wrong to completely villify PETA for the actions of some. Isn't that like saying all Muslims are terrorists or all government officials are corrupt? PETA has done some good work in an effort to stop animal testing, which in my opinion is a barbaric and antiquated practice. Try to keep it in perspective. :)

Just because someone says we should end world hunger in no way makes them nice people when they are killing children, raping old women etc.
And this wasn't two members of PETA acting on thier own, this was PETA policy, to this day!
They take in large numbers of pets, supposedly to rehome them, and then euthanize them. They support arsonists, and murderers. They give funds to both.
I don't like unneeded or inhumane testing on animals, but I won't support a terriost lying organization like PETA.

How do we know it is PETA policy. Has there been some type of investigation uncovering this and more or just based on these two idiots.

If you have a link supporting that I would love to see it.

I tend to think along the lines of Jamie.

I don't support 99% of PETA but I do go w/ the research and the way animals are kept prior to slaughter or chickens laying eggs or cockfighting.

This page(although obviously skewed against PETA) uses PETA's OWN paperwork to show numbers.
Read the trial information, and hear what PETA's own lawyers and people say. They were not against euthanizing these pets, they were against DUMPING the bodies in a dumpster behind a Piggley-Wiggley.
http://www.petakillsanimals.com/petaKillsAnimals.cfm
That's the numbers from PETA's records.
Look up PETA's own press releases, where they praise the arson of places, the records where the president of PETA has given funds to defend people who set fire to, destroyed, and attempted to kill people. They paid funds to people who burned an apartment complex.
It's a good cause to not want inhumane treatment of animals. This is not the group to do it.
Most of the bills that are being enacted against keeping certain herps or snakes in particular, are sponsered by PETA, or supported by PETA companies.
Shrug, it's not only my opinion, it's supported by facts from PETA itself. They don't support keeping pets. I can't support them or their tactics.

I agree with that.

I do not support the taking of someones life , arson or any type of violence in the name of anything. I was just wondering if it was their policy to actually kill pets instead of finding homes for them. If so that is indeed very very sad.

In the early 80's I owned a business and I did send a fair amount of money their way especially during the monkee incident out at NIH. But I soon realized they where a bit to far to the "left" for me when it came down to house pets etc.
It is to bad because some of the work they do is needed very much so.
