So these supposed animals lovers had obviously done this before hadn't they. Somehow it's kind to dogs and cats to crowd them into a van, let them watch and be in close proximity as other dogs and cats are put down, then toss them in a dumpster like so much garbage. Nice job PETA! :mad:

At least they arent liek the animal farms, as the cows watch their companions throats cut opened and a man reache sintot he throat and pulls all of its throat out and let the cow walk aroun din circles flopping around, cant scream because its trhoat has eben disembled. Then after its gone, its hoisted into the air, upside down, and comes back to life as the blood rushes back to the head and heart...

They rehablitiate them..


I think tis funny how some many people who hear one bad thing abotu somethign is totally then ANTI that oen thing. I mean honestly, I could make a duplicate of that PETAKILSANIMALS.COM site and say something tottally out of it, and people will say "Yeah I saw it n her site so it must be true" Yet, they do have good info, just that they dont suppor tthemselves. They say PETA kills animals, and that the site is totally against that, then they contradict themselves about its ok to kill farm animals as we do and ect ect.. funny crap.. and much more info I found condradicting themselves numerous times. Its of funny, I cant believe peopel believe that crud.

This isnt to start anythign. But I believe EVERYONE should read and listen to both sides of the story before assuming something... Like a judge and the Jurry. Just because someone says something of the other, you cant believe them untill tyou heard EVERYTHING... and must know there are always the bad among the good. Like everything else in this world...

someone has to do the dirty work when pet owners refuse to spay and neuter

it's sad that animals have to be euthanized but it's something that has to be done to control the over population

I'd rather a cat/dog be euthanized then live it's whole life in a shelter getting passed up for a cute kitten/puppy in the next kennel

that is not true

I know someone who runs a mink rescue and they are constantly being called out to mink farms because "PETA CRAZIES" let a ton of mink loose.
They do not catch them or do anything with the mink besides let them out.

My friend finds tons of dead mink that starved once they were loose. The mink were born and raised in cages. You can't expect them to know how to hunt, protect themselves, ect.

I even watched one of those PETA videos were the 'crazies' were letting them out of the cages and saw they did nothing but open the doors and then leave.

I am as much of a anti-cruelty/animal rights person as you'll find but I also know when you're crossing the line into being a 'crazy'

PETA is against pet ownership, especially of reptiles. No way, nowhere, would I ever support a "group" like that.

Well That may be just true. But how are they rescued? Are they gettign into things? Orrr? How do they know its PETA's? releases? I guess its like a company they run things differently in different place.s WA PETA and many others is very great.

I see. Well those might jsut be the newbies. They arent experts. They just do a lot of anti animal abuse. Like someone who just started to work at a petstore, they arent experts o those animals (most cases) and they may say and do stupid things.. But I believe atleast they were free and had a whide open space instead of in tight cages, and have a electric thing go up your anal to shock you to death :(

I even watched one of those PETA videos were the 'crazies' were letting them out of the cages and saw they did nothing but open the doors and then leave.

Hmm Havent seen any of those. Link plz :)
But Like I siad I would rathe rdie free then caged and all that evil crud :(

Agreed. But sometimes peopel turn crazy after fidning out how evil many people are..MOST people are to animals.. And you feel the animal and how it feels,a dn go crazy and only want whats best for them.

Not trying to start a debate with all you anti PETA, I understand many of your views and opinions and accept them. But I am pro PETA and I relaly think many of you should watch.read and understand why both of them say and do the things they do. *shrugs*

They suppor tit because they believe animals should have a life free and all.. And that we shouldnt act and be the way we are. I for one think we shoudl all go to classes and learn about aimal behavior 101, and then abou the animal you want. Or required to read a good size book about the animal you get and then take a test and you pass,you get the animal :) I do and dont like the idea as animals as "pets" as you call it, or animals apart of our families..

I agree. I also believe pets should be spayed and neutered.. er.. the ones that can be spayed and nweutered, should be.

I've been around horses and race horses for most of my life. I will jump in and say that most if not all the race horses I've seen have always been kept in great conditions. You have to have a good horse who is "up to speed" and in great health to even be able to enter a race.


God forbid anyone rides a horse or race's it.
I guess I'm a horrible person because I use to show, jump, and barrel race.

Indeed, a healthy diet and most have excersize programs and regular interaction with humans. Death is so much more appealing than that.

Strange logic.

No I think you must read thoroughly into it more. A horse thats bred to have more frail bones, and have a too large of frame and run at such speeds with such delicate legs, is a genetic mistake. And people should know that if you race such a horse, we should all know why it was hurt. That poor horse :(. Its the greed PETA is against. Breeding the horses, to something they shouldnt be, jut so people cna win and or make a littl emoney. Im not sure I have ever seen a naturally healthy race horse. Most alwyas seem frail and skinnier than other. Their large frames look malnourished. They dont feed fully to what the horse needs, jsut enough to make them fatser than fats and to have them still be healthy and "thin". And forcing an animal to do somethign its not meant to do and all, is what they're against. I dunno.. its hard for me to explain what I think they mean a lot of times. lol. But am always open to a discussion liek we are doing now. I think its great for both all of us. :)
