PETA: People Executing Tame Animals
Shocking news from rural North Carolina late last week --
the story of two People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)
employees caught killing and dumping 31 dogs and cats
has left animal-rights activists from coast to coast scratching
their heads.

Could it be that PETA kills animals? If you're among the
600,000 people who have visited, PetaKillsAnimals.com or one of the
millions who have seen our Times Square billboard, you already know the
answer.
While PETA lectures Americans about the "evils" of eating
meat, wearing wool, taking children to the circus, and using lab rats to
help cure cancer ,the group puts to death most of the actual
flesh-and-blood
animals entrusted to it by the public. And judging from the 62 felony
charges handed down last week, the manner in which some of these animals
were executed and disposed of appears to be
anything but "ethical."

PETA picks up dogs, cats, puppies and kittens from shelters and
veterinarians, often with assurances that new homes will be found for them.
But in 2003 PETA killed over 85> percent of the animals it took in.

In North Carolina, the animals -- including at least seven puppies and
two
kittens -- were dead less than an hour after two PETA employees picked them
up. All 31 were killed in a windowless cage- lined van, apparently with
drugs the PETA pair were not legally authorized to dispense. And
authorities
say the self-proclaimed more-ethical-than-thou PETA discarded their bodies
ingloriously (and illegally) in a strip-mall dumpster.
PETA has acknowledged killing over 10,000 animals between
1998 and 2003 All while presiding over a gargantuan fundraising operation
that brought in nearly $29 million last year[jerry goldsmith] .

It's time for Americans who want to help animals to stop
sending money to PETA, and start supporting their local animal shelters
instead. You can help. Visit
