I hate PETA, but it's hard to blame them for the kill rate at one of their shelters. They only have a limited number of resources, so they can take two tracks: become a no-kill shelter, and turn away hundreds of other pets...which will probably just be killed anyway...or worse, just turned loose. Or they can take and care for as many as they can, unfortunately terminating some as need necessitates.
One method isn't necessarily better than the other, but they both try to address the same problem, a problem PETA didn't create. No, the blame for this particular mess doesn't lie with PETA or any other organization, it lies with irresponsible pet owners and breeders.
