PETA: Lies, Abuse, and Death
by Dave Gibson, Columnist

September 3, 2003

TAP EXCLUSIVE!!

First of Three Parts

Part I: PETA's Horrible Secret

Dave Gibson PETA Headquarters - Hampton Roads, VirginiaWe all know that PETA is quite possibly the most annoying and certainly the most arrogant of all the leftist groups currently attempting to alter our way of life. However, I doubt that outside of a few nosy people and former PETA employees anyone knows how they care for homeless pets in Hampton Roads, Virginia (their headquarters, right)...They kill them!

That's right, this warm fuzzy bastion of animal rights kills every once beloved family pet who has the misfortune of being carried through PETA's doors. People take animals to PETA instead of local shelters because they believe that they will be placed into a home and will not be put down. Unlike local animal shelters, PETA doesn't even bother trying to find homes for these pets. All of them are killed within a few hours. In fact, PETA has gone through several area vets, and they refused to euthanize healthy animals. Finally PETA constructed their own facilities for this practice.

A former PETA employee spoke of one particular incident that burned into her mind forever:
A teary-eyed man showed up at PETA headquarters one day with his beloved pet rabbit. The man had grown old and sick and was no longer able to care properly for his friend. He supplied a cage, bed, toys, and even vet records for this pet. He was assured by PETA workers that they would take "good care" of his rabbit and find him a home. The man left distraught but no doubt believing that his friend would be able to live out the rest of his life in a loving, compassionate home...PETA workers carried him to the 'death house' immediately and ended his life!

PETA doesn't stop with animals....... Click here for the rest of the story.

If they don't save animals, then just what is PETA's agenda? People control? Getting rich off of donations?

Animals shmanimals.

PETA's real big secret is that they knowingly fund terrorism on American soil.

When I read the following from this article, I thought exactly the same thing:

When I asked one of these people why she was so afraid of retribution from PETA, I was told..."They will take it out on my animals".

This story must be a joke or a hoax.

The reason they kill the former pets is that they believe this is the only ethical way of dealing with animals whose nature had been immutably altered by having been made pets. To keep them alive is to keep them looking at humans from a pet's perspective. They believe this is an intolerable existence and the only suitable alternative is death. Besides, it'll help the animals to see that humans are as the PETA folks believe, evil creatures who'll put to death those animals that look to them in trust.

They kill them so they'll at least have a chance to come back re-incarnated as evil humans :)

Then you tell us.

OR

The man left distraught but no doubt believing that his friend would be able to live out the rest of his life in a loving, compassionate home...PETA workers carried him to the 'death house' immediately and ended his life!

PETA doesn't stop with animals who are dropped off at their facility. No, they actively seek out animals throughout the community to kill. PETA sets traps to catch roaming animals all over Hampton Roads. These traps are designed to catch cats, many of these are not just strays but people's pets. They have even ventured onto a local federal installation, where they captured dozens of cats and immediately killed them. The cats at this particular facility were living in a 'feral cat colony'. They were well fed, spayed and neutered, and received regular veterinary care at the expense of the government workers. PETA in their renowned arrogance decided that they knew better and illegally entered the installation several times, stole these people's cats and ended their lives.

PETA employees and volunteers regularly enter private property to capture animals, which according to former PETA employees are often times people's pets - someone's cat out for a midnight stroll or even just sitting in their owner's yard! Car loads of cats are regularly brought to PETA headquarters by employees and volunteers whose job it is to 'round them up'. One such volunteer has brought in hundreds of cats, many wearing tags bearing the name and address of their owner. The animals are loaded into a small storage shed, where they sometimes sit for several hours in the heat and cold...awaiting their date with the executioner.

We have all seen the outrageous costumes worn by PETA wackos. As an example of just how callous and truly bizarre these people truly are, two of the employees who perform the euthanizations came to a PETA function dressed as syringes! PETA's co-founder (Alex Pacheco) left the group over its absurd policy of feline genocide. PETA's mission statement, written by that group's leader Ingrid Newkirk states "We believe that animals have an intrinsic worth of their own". So Ms. Newkirk...Did you forget your mission?

In researching this article, I spoke to former PETA employees as well as people whose pets have been stolen by PETA (which were undoubtedly killed). Everyone of these people were willing to talk to me but insisted I not divulge their names or even the cities in which they now reside! When I asked one of these people why she was so afraid of retribution from PETA, I was told..."They will take it out on my animals".

Ingrid Newkirk is not only hypocritical but incredibly cruel. Euthanasia is something which is at times necessary, I know this all too well as I have had to make this heart-breaking decision. It is something that is done as a last resort, not a first response. It is a decision which must be made out of love and compassion, with a great deal of soul-searching. It is not something to be committed out of haste and blind loyalty to some feminazi. It is done to end suffering or when all efforts to find one a home has failed. It must never be done to animals that don't belong to you! ***

The only logic I can see (andf don't agree with) is that PETA believes that pet ownership is the equivalence of slavery and is morally wrong. Since pets cannot survive in the wild, the best solution is to destroy them. By adopting them out, they are simply maintaining the vicious cycle of animal oppression. Destroying a beloved pet is relieving its suffering as a starving animal in the wild or as an oppressed victim of humanity.

Their hypocrisy is staggering. I wonder why a well funded organisation like PETA could not figure out how to use their resources to adopt the "unwanted" animals out to better homes or at least have some kind of enviroment where the animals could live instead of being "murdered" (as they themselves would call it). I'll bet people would even volunteer to take care of these animals.
