Awww, did I offend anyone? Darn, I really can't seem to care. I've ranted about the terrorist organization parading around under the guise of some kind of authority on ethics (I know, LOL!) known as PETA in the past, but I just read a news piece that makes me feel like getting a paint gun and going on a murderous paint-pelting rampage against every single PETA member alive.

According to this news story published today, Linda Brown is a dog breeder who Joe Biden opted to buy a puppy from. Sounds all happy, fuzzy, well and good, right? You'd think so, but unfortunately, doing absolutely anything that associates you with someone who spends as much time under the nation's collective microscope as the vice-president of the United States means you're bound to end up on the petri dish yourself. You can check the link for the details, but here's the relevant news excerpt:


In short, PETA decided to mobilize their special ops retard force on this poor woman for the ghastly and unacceptable act of... wait for it... breeding dogs. In the name of all that's sacred, take up your arms men; we have to stop her. Let's have her drawn and quartered for the despicable act of providing the Bidens with a happy, healthy purebred puppy.

Holy crap, is not the name of their latest pathetic would-be guilt trip ad alone enough to make you want to projectile vomit? "Buy One, Get One Killed"? Pukefest: engage. So according to PETA's usual brand of smug, hypocritical and condescending moral values, if you have the audacity to get that Labrador, Siamese or whatever else you've always wanted instead of opting for shelter animals 100% of the time, you are a murderer. Great. Isn't it fantastic how PETA has elected themselves judge, jury and executioner in regards to all issues even remotely related to whatever they construe (in their endearing distorted and absolutely logic-free way) as animal rights? And I'd especially like to stress the executioner part, seeing as how PETA regularly euthanizes over 90% of the animals brought to them by the public for adoption. Oops.

Hey PETA, here's a moral quandary for you... a riddle if you will. If buying a purebred pet instead of adopting a shelter animal makes me a murderer, does having your own kids instead of adopting one of the endless underprivileged orphans in the world make you a bunch of heartless pigs? These are not my actual views, but for the sake of argument, let's say yes, it does. In that case, every PETA member who has birthed their own biological children instead of adopting a child is clearly a selfish cur, contributing to overpopulation and numb to the suffering of existing parentless babies and kids, such as the 129,000 kids in foster care waiting for permanent homes in the US alone as of 2006. And I can just go ahead and say that, because if PETA is entitled to go around judging people's life choices left and right, then so am I. If you don't do everything I think you should do, then you are the scum of the earth! Or so PETA would like to have you think when it comes to their extremist beliefs on animal rights.

So how can PETA be so unbelievably morally bankrupt and still get so many new converts, so much financial support and general public acceptance? I'll tell you how: they cover up their terrorist mission statement with fluffy kittens and baby chicks, enlist a few celebrities to give it all a pretty face (e.g. Pamela Anderson, world class has-been rough-faced whore... even Shirley Manson and Trent Reznor have been swayed to the dark side... NOOOO ) and sell themselves to the uninformed masses as some kind of harmless pet lover's club. Apparently the majority of their happy followers don't ever read the holier-than-thou crapfest they post all over their websites on a regular basis. Or they do, and honestly believe that calling everyone who disagrees with them a murderer is a great way to win them over to PETA's precious misguided cause. Honestly, I cannot stress this enough: you cannot own pets and also support PETA. Given PETA's own self-professed vision of "total animal liberation" (read: no pets), such a position is logically and morally unconscionable. If you get nothing else from my bloggy fuming, please get this.

Anyway, I can't make them all the PETARDS get a clue, but all of you poor saps are about to get your face rocked with truth. I highly recommend all of the following vids and linkies. Some are more humorously irreverent than others, but all include a good old-fashioned dose of facts that the PETA set has clearly been missing out on.

"To those people who say, ..My father is alive because of animal experimentation,' I say ..Yeah, well, good for you. This dog died so your father could live.' Sorry, but I am just not behind that kind of trade off."
- Bill Maher, PETA celebrity spokesman

"If the death of one rat cured all diseases, it wouldn't make any difference to me."

Pets

"I dont use the word "pet." I think its speciesist language. I prefer "companion animal." For one thing, we would no longer allow breeding. People could not create different breeds. There would be no pet shops. If people had companion animals in their homes, those animals would have to be refugees from the animal shelters and the streets. You would have a protective relationship with them just as you would with an orphaned child. But as the surplus of cats and dogs (artificially engineered by centuries of forced breeding) declined, eventually companion animals would be phased out, and we would return to a more symbiotic relationship enjoyment at a distance."
-Ingrid Newkirk, PETA vice-president, quoted in The Harper's Forum Book, Jack Hitt, ed., 1989, p.223.

"It is time we demand an end to the misguided and abusive concept of animal ownership. The first step on this long, but just, road would be ending the concept of pet ownership."
-Elliot Katz, President, In Defense of Animals, "In Defense of Animals," Spring 1997

"Liberating our language by eliminating the word 'pet' is the first step ... In an ideal society where all exploitation and oppression has been eliminated, it will be NJARA's policy to oppose the keeping of animals as 'pets.'"
-New Jersey Animal Rights Alliance, "Should Dogs Be Kept As Pets? NO!" Good Dog! February 1991, p.20

"Let us allow the dog to disappear from our brick and concrete jungles -- from our firesides, from the leather nooses and chains by which we enslave it."
-John Bryant, Fettered Kingdoms: An Examination of A Changing Ethic, PETA, 1982, p.15.

"The cat, like the dog, must disappear..... We should cut the domestic cat free from our dominance by neutering, neutering, and more neutering, until our pathetic version of the cat ceases to exist."
-John Bryant, Fettered Kingdoms: An Examination of a Changing Ethic, PETA 1982, p.15.

"As John Bryant has written in his book Fettered Kingdoms, they [pets] are like slaves, even if well-kept slaves."
-PETA's Statement on Companion Animals

"The bottom line is that people don't have the right to manipulate or to breed dogs and cats ... If people want toys they should buy inanimate objects. If they want companionship they should seek it with their own kind."
-Ingrid Newkirk, President, PETA, "Animals," May/June 1993

"You don't have to own squirrels and starlings to get enjoyment from them ... One day, we would like an end to pet shops and the breeding of animals. [Dogs] would pursue their natural lives in the wild ... they would have full lives, not wasting at home for someone to come home in the evening and pet them and then sit there and watch TV."
-Ingrid Newkirk, President, PETA, Chicago Daily Herald, March 1, 1990.

"Arson, property destruction, burglary and theft are 'acceptable crimes' when used for the animal cause."
-Alex Pacheco, Director, PETA

"I wish we all would get up and go into the labs and take the animals out or burn them down."
-Ingrid Newkirk, President, PETA, National Animal Rights Convention '97, June 27, 1997

"Get arrested. Destroy the property of those who torture animals. Liberate those animals interned in the hellholes our society tolerates."
-Jerry Vlasak, Animal Defense League, Internet post to AR Views list, June 21, 1996

"We have found that civil disobedience and direction action has been powerful in generating massive attention in our communities ... and has been very effective in traumatizing our targets."
-J.P. Goodwin, Committee to Abolish the Fur Trade, National Animal Rights Convention '97, June 27, 1997.

"In a war you have to take up arms and people will get killed, and I can support that kind of action by petrol bombing and bombs under cars, and probably at a later stage, the shooting of vivisectors on their doorsteps. It's a war, and there's no other way you can stop vivisectors."
-Tim Daley, British Animal Liberation Front Leader
