People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) seems to believe that euthanizing animals is an ethical way to treat them.
The Virginia-based PETA euthanized 80% of its animals in 2014, and that was a relatively "slow year" as 90% or more is typical. It got to the point where the Virginia State Legislature had to pass a bill to protect animals from PETA. The bill was put forward by Sen. William M. Stanley Jr. (R-Franklin).
PETA hired a lobbyist hitman, Steven Haner, to try his hand at killing the bill, but fortunately for many of our furry friends, the bill passed 95 - 2.
Here are some of the numbers: in 2014 PETA took in 3,017 critters and only 162 were adopted, 2455 were murdered which equates to 81% killed. PETA's kill rate is over three times more than all other Virginia shelters. In fact, 210,599 animals were taken in throughout the state and 49,302 were killed, which equates to less than 25%.
Debra Griggs of the Federation of Humane Societies said of the death rate, "It's just impossible to consider that they are making an attempt to adopt out animals with that failure record."
So this is another example of a far left organization that fools itself into believing that it's doing the right thing for mankind (or, in this case, critterkind), when the facts prove otherwise.
The deeper truth probably has more to do with a hidden agenda.
