I love how Ingrid Newkirk even admits in the article that she knew about it. She's scary and psychotic. I'll bet most of the dead dogs were pit bulls or pit bull mixes. She's had it out for them for years.
She really needs to be stopped....what an egomaniac.
:(
@#$%&!!!!

Shelters Upset PETA Killed Animals Instead Of Adopting Out
POSTED: 11:44 am PDT June 22, 2005
NORFOLK, Va. -- Two North Carolina counties have stopped turning over shelter animals to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
Officials said they were surprised to learn the group euthanized cats and dogs instead of trying to find them homes. They said they believed the animals were being taken for evaluation, and were being adopted out -- and that euthanasia would be only a last resort.
PETA said unfortunately, even some healthy animals may be euthanized if PETA cannot find them homes. Documents show PETA euthanized about 6,100 domestic animals from 2001-2003.
Two PETA employees have been charged with animal cruelty for dumping dead animals they collected in eastern North Carolina into a shopping center's garbage bins.

@#$%^&*@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:
And PETA is the main reason that I will never live in the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area again......
At least they haven't really gotten a foothold in the Richmond area. We are about 1.5 hours north west of there.
Words that I really want to say about them are not appropriate for a family site such as Pet Talk.
I just wish their facility would crack off it's foundation and fall into the river and wash out to sea.
I was under the impression from the first article that these animals that were dumped were just being picked up from the shelters and vet's clinics and never even arrived at the PETA facility but were euthanized on the spot and dumped.
Quote:
Barry Anderson, Bertie County's animal control officer, identified nearly all of the dumped dogs as ones that Cook and Hinkle picked up just a few hours earlier Wednesday, said Detective Sgt. Ed Pittman of the Bertie County Sheriff's Office.
They sure didn't even try to find them homes so how can they use that line as defense? This time it can't be said that the information is simply false propaganda put out by the Center for Consumer Freedom.Quote:

I'd like to know why if PETA is paying for their attorneys. An article Here says:
And yet:Quote:
After they are killed, Newkirk said, the carcasses are supposed to be sent to a crematorium, not dumped in bins.
“That conduct disgusts us,” Newkirk said of the dumping. “It shames us. It violates our own protocols, it happened without our knowledge and can never be allowed to happen again. But our work is important and our work must go on.”
Quote:
A probable cause hearing was set for July 19 . PETA will pay for their attorneys, Newkirk said.
6,100?!?!
ooh! I'm twisting my neck!! :mad: :mad: at least they've got them...rot in firey.
:( :( what do we do about others we're not knowing...like this PETA since a few years.. :( :confused: :(
This absolutely disgusts me...
PETA in my opinion is one of the worlds biggest terrorist orginizations and should be stopped as such. There have been reports of PETA people killing people and bombing buildings and setting buildings on fire. How in the H**L is that helping animals? GRRRRRRRRRRRR animal rights extremists make me sick. These people will cause a 20 car pileup to avoid hitting a field mouse crossing the road yet they'll kill dogs and cats that would make great companions for people and not bat an eyelash. Domestic dogs and cats have been around for a very long time, it isn't as if people are plucking them out of the wild and making thier lives miserable. Can anyone tell me why exactly PETA has such a problem with domestic animals? What are we to do, turn all our pets loose in the wild and have them make it on thier own? Yeesh.
And I wonder if PETA thinks that people adopting children is a bad idea too?
I'd say more, but this IS a family forum after all.
