PETA, wolf in sheep's clothing?

I've got a bone to pick with members of the fascist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, followed with some questions.

First of all the personal choice of not eating animals, or wearing animal skins is something I cannot argue with. If you feel this is the right thing to do, more power to you. You have my respect for sticking with your beliefs.

However, be a free thinking individual myself, I have the right to do as I please, and I choose to have a dog, eat meat, and wear leather shoes. What I want to know is, what gives you the right to personally attack (verbally) me on the streets for walking my dog with my family. Your using the same techniques many fascist special interest groups use to get your point across, and I don't approve of you giving campy adds to my children to try to further your message. Is it really the pure and ethical treatment of animals you seek, or is it the 30 million dollars your thinking heads receive yearly from its members?

How can you support a hypocritical organization that does a worse job of saving animal lives than the state of Virgina? Thats right, you have failed to put 90% of your animals into loving homes and have been forced to execute them with the same methods your preach to be unethical. I think to date PETA has killed approximately 19000 animals by means of cardiac arrest inducing chemicals to date.

How can you support a group that fund 5 figure amounts to groups that knowingly commit felony's such as arson and battery to get their point across?

How can you support a founder who claims she would rather see animals roam freely than use them to find a cure for AIDS and Cancer?

I understand you may think your doing something right.....but this group is not the answer. If your Nazi tactics continue, mainly using children to get your point in the spotlight, your going to upset the wrong person and this group is going to have a major lawsuit on their hands. Be a freethinker, you don't need to be a member of a perverted organization to get your point across.

I really don't see your point.
Well, I do,
but it's kinnda confusing.



Well, PETA doesn't hate you for owning a dog.
And they have to put the animals down because there is no room for them. If they kept all the animals, they would need some money or all those volenteers would live on the streets. so why don't you just go donate some money.


I'd rather see animals roam freely than find a cure for AIDS.
It's our fault we lock animals up and eat them!

AIDS is our problem!
Because monkey get tested and tortured and get their bone marrow sucked out for US! US HUMANS!
ITs not even their choice!

Those diseases are our problems!!!




And why would you ever want to eat something that would run away from you? why?...
it's so cruel.

Asker's Comment:
I subscribe to the hierarchy of species, and if a monkey leads to a cure for AIDS so be it. And yes, I have many times been criticized for owning a dog. My point is simple..keep your philosophy to yourself. Your crossing a line verging on infringing on my human rights, but you dont care about those.

    well first of all,I'd like to say PETA has nothing against owning dogs...
    Whomever did this to you was ignorant,and wrong-and you shouldnt group all PETA as this type just because one person was.Its the same as being racist.Im not sure if i answered your question,but this is just what i think

    I dont donate to PETA,purely because i have no idea where the moneys going-but i will use thier campainging amterial JUST to spread the word-im not about to force you into becomming vegan anytime soon though
