I just watched a documentary on Ingrid Newkrik, the co-founder and pres of Peta. What a whack job. It makes me sad that there are so many people with good intentions that follow and support Peta, yet they are too niave to see what that sick organization is all about. If it were up to Peta, there would be no zoos, wildlife management, agriculture, pets, species survival plans. Peta is one protest away from being a terrorist group. In fact, they support the ALF (animal liberation front) that was named a terrorist group in 2005. They are sick enough to compare turkey slaughter to the holocaust. They exploit women and racism. They made a joke of the NYC mayor when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer- using that as a reason to not drink milk. They are total media whores. They are a group of people that have gone completely off course. The outrageous stunts and protests they pull do nothing for animals. All they do is end up looking like total asses and making themselves and their cause look bad. When Ingrid dies, she donated parts of her body. She wants to be skinned. Her skin tanned and made into leather products. She wants her feet cut off to be made into an umbrella stand. She wants her body cooked and bar-b-qued for people to eat. How sick is all of that? In 2007, and this is a fact, 90% of the animals that they "rescued" were killed because they said they would be better off dead then in the care of humans. I was fuming while watching the documentary this morning. Those people are sick and have lost their minds. Sick Sick Sick people. People that support them should take a second look at what peta is really about.
