I do have friends that are PETA members, so, I guess I could say that not all PETA members are bad, however, their basic philosophy is down right ignorant and their higher ups are raving lunatics.

I am all about animal rights, I wouldn't spend 40+ hours a week on top of going to school and working full time saving animals in shelters all over IN and coordinating transports to get them where they are safe or Mike and I driving almost every weekend to get dogs and cats to safety if I weren't. However, PETA stands in my way. Not only do they themselves kill companion animals, but, the fruit loop members that are out there scaring the bejesus out of little kids and attacking women wearing fur, and vandalizing buildings make those of us who are TRYING to make this country no kill adoptable for companion animals less viable in many Americans' minds.

I'm sorry, but, I find no good in PETA....period. There is nothing peaceful about the organization. Violent, destructive protests are all important to them so that they can draw attention to themselves. Then they spend all the money that unsuspecting animal lovers donate on crap like those protests and nothing goes to the animals and worse yet, those people might have donated money to their local shelter for food, leashes, collars, beds, etc, but instead they donate to a terrorist organizatin...just like those our country is trying to fight.
