[...] According to the Associated Press (AP) PETA killed
1325 dogs and cats in Norfolk last year. That was more
than half the number of animals is took in during that
period. According to Virginian-Pilot Reporter, Kerry
Dougherty, the execution rate at PETA's "shelter" far
exceeds that of the local Norfolk SPCA shelter where only
a third of animals taken in are "put down." [...] iwmc.org2000Open ↗

Web posted Friday, April 27, 2001 State Veterinarian, PETA
Head Differ On Outbreak [...] On Thursday, Ingrid Newkirk,
president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals,
renewed her claim that an outbreak of foot-and-mouth
disease in the United States would benefit herds by
sparing them from a tortured existence and the
slaughterhouse.
A PETA spokesman said it's inconceivable that anyone
would fail to see the sense of Newkirk's statements,
which have rankled politicians and livestock farmers from
Texas to Canada.
[...] In a telephone interview from Richmond, Va., Newkirk
reiterated her hope that foot-and-mouth -- which has
ravaged herds in Europe -- reaches U.S. shores.
''It's a peculiar and disturbing thing to say, but it
would be less than truthful if I pretended otherwise,''
she said.
People would be better off without meat because it is tied
to a host of ailments, Newkirk said. And animals would
benefit because the current means of raising and
slaughtering livestock are ''grotesquely cruel from start
to finish.'' [...] pressanddakotan.comstoriesOpen ↗

involvement in movements like the Earth Liberation Front
as well as the Animal Liberation Front, two terrorist
groups known for violence, assualts on the innocent as
well as arson after arson after arson.
If you support PETA you support terrorism, and thus are a
traitor to AMerica.

PETA's sympathies for ELF actions were apparent in a
recent speech by PETA Vice President Bruce Friedrich.
"I think it would be great if all of the fast-food
outlets, slaughterhouses, these laboratories and the banks
that fund them exploded tomorrow," he said.
PETA payouts to radicals willing to carry out such crimes
include:
-- $5,000 to Josh Harper, who was convicted of assaulting
police and firing on a fishing vessel;
-- $2,000 to Dave Wilson, convicted of firebombing a fur
cooperative;
-- $7,500 to Fran Trutt, convicted of attempted murder of
a medical executive

Intersting PeTA facts
When ALF member Roger Troen was convicted of burglary and
arson at the University of Oregon, in which $36,000 in
damage was inflicted, PeTA paid Troen's $27.000 legal
fees and his $34,900 fine. Gary Thorud testified under
oath that "we were illegally funding this individual with
money solicited for other causes, and Ingrid was using
that money, bragging to the staff that she had spent
$25,000 on the case." Deposition of Gary Thorud, Berosini
v. PeTA, at 49-50.
Rodney Coronado, a member of the Animal Liberation Front,
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 57 months in prison
for the destruction of an animal diagnostics research lab
at the University of California, Davis in April, 1987
(total damage estimates: $4.5 million). PETA sent $ 45,200
to Coronado's 'support committee,' which was a sum 15
times greater than what PETA spent on animal shelters
nationwide in all of that year.
