    PETA members "get it"

    These losers from PETA are on trial for 21 charges of animal cruelty.

    Adria J. Hinkle denied, however, that she had ever promised overwhelmed animal shelters in northeastern North Carolina that the animals taken by her group, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, would not be euthanized.

    Hinkle and Andrew B. Cook, both PETA workers, are on trial on 21 counts of animal cruelty, along with charges of littering and obtaining property by false pretenses.

    Well, PETA shows their true colors (and level of intelligence) yet again.
    I think I'll go eat a steak too.....ok, no steak, ick. I'll have a salad and think about cows in Colorado and roaches at Knotts Berry Farm and the mice I just fed to my snakes

    Re: PETA members "get it"

    It always cracks me up how those PETA people will go and release animals into the wild off of farms, like on the mink farms.. obviously all of those released animals will die, b/c they have never seen the wild.. how stupid.

    Re: PETA members "get it"

    "Hinkle testified that she and Cook euthanized the animals in the back of her van. She said they were supposed to bring the carcasses back to PETA's offices in Norfolk, Va., but that the stench in her van had overwhelmed her in the past." (bold is mine)

    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!

    Re: PETA members "get it"

    This is a link to the trial. PETA's headquarters killed some 14,000 animals, and this was just the tip of the iceberg that's being revealed. I can't say as it surprises me, an organization that opposes pets, taking in pets then killing them, rather than adopting them out like they say... hmmmm.. yeah, that fits. Hope they get the maximum, AND that the local government sues them in civil court for something too!

    Hey, we have a little ermine that lives around our house, in the abandoned barn; he is the cutest thing. I will try to get a pic of him!
