Is it time to euthanize the Humane Society?
Sami Segale, Oakland Pets Examiner
October 28, 2011
There is an angry buzz in the online animal community (blogs, Yahoo Groups, and Facebook) about animal rights groups, including the Humane Society of the United States. The HSUS and other animal rights organizations promote animal welfare, but how sincerely and at what cost are being called into question.

Ken Moran of the NY Post reports the cost of supporting such an agenda in specific monetary figures
HSUS's advertisements employ the images of downtrodden dogs and cats to tug at the heart strings and wallets of America's pet lovers. But a Center for Consumer Freedom new analysis finds HSUS is a "Humane Society" in name only, sharing a meager $527,566, or 0.4 percent of its $120 million budget with sheltering organizations nationwide in 2010. In the same year, HSUS spent $47 million in fundraising-related costs (37 percent of its total budget) and put $32 million in hedge funds.

And lining their pockets with the donations.

HSUS is evil, uncaring and should be wiped from existence. They don't do what they should do and instead simply line their pockets.
They're like PETA, but with a more misleading name.
Yes, I fell quite strongly about this.
-
HSUS and PETA should both be euthanized. Phony bastards. It's about elitist control and profit for a few, not animal welfare.
-
I only support local humane societies. Smithgall Woods is where I'll be volunteering this year and next.

"Sheltering" is a euphemism for doggie death camps for them and PETA anyway. I hate those f'in commercials, they get my wife all emotionally upset and the obvious obvious manipulation in them slams my Pissed-Off button.

Yeah, they get my wife riled, too.
