Have you heard of the show "Bullsh*t" with Penn and Teller? They had a very interesting episode about PETA.
In one episode, they weren't exactly supportive of the herp trade, but they didnt say anything that was necesarrily untrue. It is like my favorite show. Whether I agree with the opinion parts of what they say or not, they always have great facts to back it up.
Anywho, the one on PETA was very informative and showed them for the hypocritial, organization they are. I could hardly bare to watch as they used all the money that people who really care about animals sent them to protest against the humane society putting animals to sleep instead of actually doing something about it and paying for the animals to be taken care of.
It showed evidence that one year, they put like 2/3 of the animals they actually did take in to sleep. And that a member who is very high up in the organisation uses insolin which came from animal testing while she does not support medical research using animal testing.
If any of them really cared, they would stop spending their money to say how much they care about animals and start spending it to help animals.
