PETA: People for Extortion, Terror, and Abuse.
I understand that PETA is an activist group with their own beliefs, values, and ethics (or lack of ethics). They have every right to believe what they believe, that's what America is all about. Everyone has freedom of speech, including PETA.
But, they DO NOT have the right to commit violent acts to get their message across. Nobody has this right. PETA thinks it has the right to tell you, me, and the rest of the world how to live. They condone arson, bombings, harassment, and more violent crimes. Animal cruelty is a serious problem. Torturing an animal is wrong and evil, and there are laws in place to address that, but they can't right all the wrongs. All of this is true, but it DOES NOT mean that PETA's insanity is justified. They do not exist outside of the law, they have to obey the same rules as the rest of us, but they are under the delusion that they are exempt from the law. This is not true.
PETA loves animals and not people. It's clear. They are the ones who have trivialized the Holocaust. They are the ones saying that we should never cure AIDS if it means we have to expirament on a rat. In PETA's world, there are no pets, no Kentucky Derby, no fishing, no zoos, and no animal shows. They even are against SERVICE ANIMALS like GUIDE DOGS FOR THE BLIND! They are opposed to ALL of the animal research that can save human lives. Diseases like cancer, sickle cell, AIDS, and diabetes are all closer to being cured by animal research. People are dying all over the world from these diseases. Animal Research is helping them, and PETA IS TRYING TO STAND IN THEIR WAY.
Oh, here's another little fun fact. The vice president of PETA, Mary Beth Sweetland is a diabetic. She injects herself with insulin to keep herself alive, even though this medical technology was developed through ANIMAL TESTING using dogs. She is a hypocrite and a fraud. She and her organization denounce animal testing and she is reaping the benefits. If Mary Beth Sweetland believed in anything, she would let herself DIE before using medicine developed through animal testing. Complete and total hypocracy.
We as a society need to teach our children to love and respect animals, we should NOT teach them how to strike matches and throw bombs like PETA does. PETA is a group of eco-terrorists who are violent and dangerous. I urge all of you pet lovers, people with sick and dying loved ones, and those who love animals in general, to think twice before donating to PETA.
