RICHMOND — Nothing is warm and fuzzy in the world of Virginia animal-welfare organizations this year as shelters attack each other over a seemingly slight tweak to the state code that some activists say could put a major shelter out of business.

At the heart of this fight is People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and its record on euthanasia, which alarms other animal advocates.

PETA operates a large shelter at its headquarters in Norfolk, where every year the vast majority of cats and dogs taken in are euthanized. The shelter came under fire last fall after it euthanized a Chihuahua that was inexplicably snatched from its owner’s porch by a PETA contractor on the Eastern Shore.

PETA is cruel to animals. Time to shut them down.

Another lib hidden agenda is uncovered.
So many of their agenda items disguise their true intentions.
Rush, in his book "The Way Things Ought To Be" deftly points out so many of the lib machinations.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

PETA has never been about saving/rescuing animals.  It has always simply been a marketing agency for profit.  Same with HSUS.

Every animal "rescued" can be used to generate revenue.

Every day a "rescued" animal lives in PETA's shelter is an expense.

Every advertisement searching for adopters is an expense.

Do the Math.
