If you are new to the animal world, or you are not one given to surfing the web looking for articles on the animal welfare, then you might not know what PETA is. PETA is an organization that would have you believe that they have the welfare of all animals on this earth at heart. They would have you believe that their main purpose in life is to see to the humane treatment of all animals. They would have you believe that all that they do, they do because of a deep love and caring for animals. That is what they would have you believe. DON’T YOU BELIEVE IT!

Now you will discover what PETA really is. But first answer this question. How do you feel about terrorism? Any type of terrorism. Only the lowest type of individual, or the most extremely mentally disturbed would ever involve themselves in terrorism of any nature. Terrorism strikes out at anything, or anyone that is in their way, for what ever sick reasons they may have. They kill the innocent, and they ruin the lives of individuals that have absolutely nothing to do with whatever cause they have in their not so lucid minds.

They are individuals that are devoid of conscience or social bearing. The turpitude with which they go about spreading their beliefs will make you shutter, if not make you sick. They would have you believe that they are willing to give their lives for what they believe in, but are not brave enough to show you their faces.

Let’s look at the position that PETA has put most of us in.  If we are against PETA, it is then implied that we are against the ethical treatment of animals. And, if we stand with PETA, just what are we standing for?  Most of us are reasonably intelligent individuals.  Most of the times, we research any organization that we are going to send our money to.  But  where PETA is concerned most of us don’t.  Why do we allow this to happen? EMOTIONALISM.  Like the majority of you who read such blogs, you love animals, and most especially your pet.  Because of the love that you have for your friend (be it four legged, winged, or other) you hate the mistreatment of other animals, probably all animals.  It matters not if that mistreatment comes in the form of research in some corporate laboratory, or at the hand of some sick individual that tortures defenseless animals just for laughs. Anyone that mistreats, abuses, neglects or otherwise places animals in harms way, and those individuals that will lie, cheat, and misinform others, use whatever tactics at their disposal,  to further their own causes. This is just what PETA has been doing, and is STILL doing. And what is worse, they are using your money.

Visit the PETA website. See horrible pictures, and read the literature. You can get information from them on how mistreated all animals are. Also in the literature is information on how everyone HAS to become a vegetarian. Most of us pride ourselves on being opened minded, and so many of us ignore the bit about becoming a vegetarian. But the pictures that PETA wants you to see, and are in their handouts and brochures, are appalling. Something has to be done about this I said, so we naturally tend to go for  our cheque books and write a cheque. That is just not a good thing to do. They are using the emotions that we have for the animals. They design their material to play to the emotions, and that in and of itself isn’t all bad. But with PETA it is all a lie. They don’t have the welfare of one animal at heart. But they sure do want your money.

PETA relies on emotionalism.  They know how most people feel about animals, and the abuse that seems to be evident in all sectors of our society today.  They are counting on the fact that you will not take the time to research their organization, but will, out of the love you have, write a cheque that will go to support the very abuses that they make one think will be stamped out with one’s help.

Read theses facts and then decide if this is the type of organization  to support.

From November of 1996 until October of 1999 the Animal Liberation Front, part of the PETA organization, has been responsible for, but not limited too, the following;

  1. The kidnapping, torture, and branding of  Mr. Graham Hall.

  2. Chaining a 62 year old woman to a fence and terrorizing her for owning a cattery.

  3. Threatening a man they believed to be an animal researcher, telling him he was a marked man, and they were going to kill him.

  4. More than 16 establishments firebombed. Estimated damages of more than $20,000,000.00.

  5. Vandalizing business and research facilities. Estimated damages are more than $30,000,000.00.

  6. Vandalizing research laboratories resulting in millions of dollars of lost equipment and research, some of which was for a cure for Alzheimer’s.

  7. At least two dozen or more, terrorist  mailings with poisoned razorblades designed to cut, and or, kill the recipients. Some of the razor blades had been coated with rat poison.

  8. Releasing over 41,500 animals to the wild.  It must be stated here that these animals were bred in captivity, and did not have the necessary survival skills to live on their own outside of protection.  Many have been killed by other predators, cars, and starved to death.

  9. On many occasions, staged a very well coordinated release of Pure Bred Dogs at Dog Shows.  Many of which engaged in fights with each other, becoming injured; and many others  ran into traffic and were killed.
