PETA Kills Animals.

[Bastinka]

From July 1998 through the end of 2005, PETA killed over 14,400 dogs, cats, and other "companion animals" -- at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. That's more than five defenseless animals every day. Not counting the dogs and cats PETA spayed and neutered, the group put to death over 90 percent of the animals it took in during 2005 alone. And its angel-of-death pattern shows no sign of changing.

I think that's horrible, major hypocrisy. :mad:

What the fuck?

[thehoodedsmack]

This is suprising....

[Con]

What are they supposed to do with all those pets people bring in? Nobody wants to adopt them, and they can't afford to keep them all. Putting them down is often the only solution.

This is why we get animals spayed and neutered.

[Teh Ganon]

PETA claimed a $9,370 write-off for a giant walk-in freezer, the kind most people use as a meat locker or for ice-cream storage. But animal-rights activists don't eat meat or dairy foods. And during a 2007 criminal trial, a PETA manager (testifying under oath) confirmed the obvious -- that the group uses the appliance to store the bodies of its victims.

Oh so vick should of killed em and stuck him in his freezer :o

[Huero]

Yeah, it doesn't really say WHY they kill them.

What else are you supposed to do with dozens of hundreds of pets that you can't take care of or sell because people don't want to adopt them? What else would you do? Setting them free into the wild isn't really a good idea.

[TeeKup]

Haven't they heard of burying? Let the Earth take them back...

[thehoodedsmack]

What are they supposed to do with all those pets people bring in? Nobody wants to adopt them, and they can't afford to keep them all. Putting them down is often the cheapest solution.

ftfy. I see where you're coming from though, and I kinda agree. But these activist people are getting tens of millions of dollars every year by people who are donating under the impression that they're rescuing and helping animals. And not mercy-killing type help, good help.

Turn sparky into mulch for a garden =l

[n00b1n8R]

no shit. how many animals do they take every year? now how much space do you think they have?

If any body has a better idea, please don't be shy to come forward.

[Agamemnon]

People have this right-on idea that its an animal's fault for doing what their instinct tells them to do. Probably if we didn't domesticate them they'd still be wild and they'd still face normal predators and normal disease. We're the ones that messed that bit up, kind of like the same thing with Americans first relocating Indians during the expansion years. It sort of comes down to where we draw the line and say who are we to say what we can and can't do. Kind of goes in line with all the new revolutionary medicine and the talk of life extensions and cloning; or the same thing goes with justifying killing another human being. All a matter of perception.

[TeeKup]

Turn sparky into mulch for a garden =l

Not what I meant....

I meant letting other creatures of nature take back the nutrients of the body, its something that the Native American's practiced.

[Con]

I wonder what they do with the frozen bodies...maybe McDonald's buys them! :XD:

[ExAm]

Dear god. I read the whole site. The stuff they put out is just grotesque.

Those questions can be answered if you take the time to click a link in the first post. MATH TIME!!!

PETA gets $30,000,000 a year
PETA takes in about 2,600 animals a year (on average)
The American Pet Products Manufacturers Association lists the cost of owning a pet (vet visits, food, toys, etc) between $1,000 to $1,500 a year.

2,600 * 1,500 = 3,900,000

Oh look. We solved a problem. Here's a better solution. Bring in all the animals, and keep them alive. If they're still around after a year, then let's consider putting them down. As for the space problem, you've got over $20,000,000 left. Buy a 5,000 cell kennel on a big frickin' farm. Case closed.

[n00b1n8R]

but you need space to put these animals.

[thehoodedsmack]

^ Bad timing. Just edited my post.

[Sever]

EAT THEM!!!

[thehoodedsmack]

Yes. There's always Sever's idea.

[DaneO'Roo]

Aren't these creatures ANIMALS?

Send them back to nature, for fucks sake, don't kill them. Natural selection will take it's course and they'll be fine.

[Sever]

Oh god not another one. My name is Sever, not Server. Where's Blargan (a gamer on Yoyorast island who is quite defensive about the spelling of my name) when you need him/her? (about 35-40% of online gamers are female)

e: I also naturally select to EAT THEM!!!

[thehoodedsmack]

^
^ Another very possible idea. However, it's like letting loose a Special Olympics champ compete in the real deal. These animals are, in a sense, crippled by human domestication, and natural selection is hardly the word for it, as they have a severe disadvantage. It could be viewed to be just as cruel as offing them yourself, if not more. The problem also lies in the fact that the money for all this comes from people who want their interests fulfilled. If you can't abide by that, your funding dwindles and dies.

@ Sever I am very sorry about the name mix-up. I will fix it right away.

yes, lets send feral cats out into australia's outback. that'd doing the ecosystem a world of good :downs:

They'll just die there too. At least this way it's relatively painless and fast, not being pecked off by some predator or starving to death.

[thehoodedsmack]

I don't see why we're even talking about new ways of killing them. The article posted has told us that if they wanted to, PETA could become a kill-free organization overnight.

Peta is to busy spending all there money of useless protests and annoying the shit out of everyone just so they feel usefull.....you think they actually CARE about animals?

[thehoodedsmack]

Yes. Their methods can be that of frothy-mouthed Bible-thumpers, but I do believe they care about animals. That's why they have all the volunteers and junk. I don't doubt that they're in it for a few bucks as well, but it would be business suicide to have your CEO show up in a fox-fur coat or some crap.

[Dr Nick]

You just noticed?

PETA is the worst animal protection group in the world.

I'd rather just take my pets to the local SPCA if they're being abused.

[paladin]

Ever think that kills = humanely euthanized? I don't agree with them, but fact can be drastically swayed either way.

[Agamemnon]

When I think of PETA, I think of the ACLU, and how much both of them are alike in the sense that they accomplish nothing and are a big mass of contradictions.

[p0lar_bear]

So yeah, PETA protests at kennels that put down animals that are never adopted, and then they turn around and pull this?

Holy shit my brain just exploded.

[rossmum]

PETA are fucking scum, end of.

It's a shame we humans put an end to our own natural selection with warning labels and so on, maybe the world would have a lot less extremist fucktards who think they're going to impose their twisted morals on everyone else if they were taken off. These people bitch and moan and protest about necessary procedures that help save animals from horrific diseases and so forth, then turn around and do this. They neither know nor care what they're actually doing, so long as they get their little limelight and a healthy profit out of the lot.

I eat fucking meat, as does every other omnivorous or carnivorous creature in nature. I support the mulesing of sheep until a better, viable solution is found. I also support animal welfare groups who actually know the first fucking thing about the animals themselves.

Eat my shit, PETA.

[JDMFSeanP]

We could start giving dogs to the chinese, or the Bush family.

BTW ross ftw.

[ImSpartacus]

I think transporting them to a place like Canada :worship: would be good. its geographically close to the states (i assume peta operates out of the us, no knowledge on the subject), and Canada is decently uninhabited. Then just let them go. If they can't fend for themselves, then they get eaten by an animal that can fend for itself. thats natural selection at its best.

If Canada isn't viable :rolleyes: then the US still has its parks and places where humans aren't near.

"Humane" killing is still killing, it just costs more and looks better. Nature is still nature. Nature has been around for years, and it just happens to be natural.

[Emmzee]

This reminds me of a story that was maybe a year ago.

These PETA members in North Carolina were caught dumping, and I kid you not, trash bags of dead cats into the dumpsters behind a Piggly Wiggly.

Yes, I can see where you would come to the ridiculous conclusion that I am an elephant.

I hope terrible things happen to you.

[Bodzilla]

I support the mulesing of sheep until a better, viable solution is found.
yeah i remember hearing about that.
they even got Pink™ to get on the bandwagon.

people can have there own opinions, beliefs, morals, but as soon as they start Imposing ther beliefs on others they can go die.
No matter what form it takes, extremism is still Extremism.

[paladin]

Gab the elephant gun and shoot him before PETA gets to him...

This is called becoming an invasive species. Housepets are not native to the wild, and therefore would over-run the place.

Paladin....Why?

Why you gotta make Papa Bear hit you for dissin' his turf?

How fitting.

southpark was just on TV.
it was the PETA episode.

What you said was absolutely true. Why you got a problem with that?:confused:

[ImSpartacus]

This is called becoming an invasive species. Housepets are not native to the wild, and therefore would over-run the place.

The only difference, is that invasive species are almost always extremely resilient (lol, we just learned about this is 10th grade bio last week), and domesticated pets, could not compare to wild animals. They would most likely die en mass.

However, this is the much more natural than injecting a chemical into an animals then burning the body. Not only would they release greenhouse gases in burning, the animal's nutrients would not return to the ground, and dont forget that u have gaseous traces of that lethal chemical floating around.

You think they had to make that up? I was born in one of those camps. My mother is a sweet little wildebeest named Darlene.
