	People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		PETA is an animal rights organization, meaning that in addition to focusing on animal welfare and protection issues, it rejects the idea of animals as property, and opposes all forms of speciesism, animal testing, meat eating, factory farming, and hunting, as well as the use of animals in entertainment or as clothing, furniture, or decoration.
		PETA does not adhere to a no-kill policy and euthanizes the majority of animals that are given to them that are not reclaimed by their owners or adopted.
		PETA's undercover investigation of a primate laboratory in Silver Spring, Maryland, resulted in the first suspension of federal research funds for alleged cruelty, and the first animal-rights related case to be heard by the United States Supreme Court.

	AskMen.com - Peta Wilson
		If the name Peta Wilson doesn't ring a bell, that means you've probably missed out on one of the more entertaining and addictive shows on television, La Femme Nikita, about a beautiful woman forced to become a spy and cold-blooded killer.
		Peta Wilson's press coverage has certainly increased since she took on her role as Nikita, but she has also made splashes for her apparent dalliances with fellow Australian charmer Russell Crowe (side note, we know he was born in New Zealand, but only lived there for 4 years).
		Peta Gia Wilson (she believes she was named after Miss Australia 1970) was born November 18, 1970, in New South Wales, Sydney, Australia.

		PETA members and supporters began a corporate takeover campaign against animal humane groups similar to the coup which Stallwood had pulled off in England with the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection.

	McInnis letter to PETA
		The purpose of the contribution to ELF is listed on PETA's Form 990 tax return as to "support their program activities." Subsequent reporting in the media appears to substantiate these allegations.
		As a non-profit organization with tax-exempt privileges and the incumbent public policy obligations that status entails, PETA has a responsibility to explain the full extent of its involvement with and contributions to environmental terror groups like ELF and ALF.
		As local, state and federal law enforcement officials grapple with this formidable threat, careful scrutiny must be applied to any and all persons or organizations that lend financial aid and comfort to this radical band of extremists.

	CBR / Twisting PETA'S Tail - Page One
		Aaron Gross, a Harvard Divinity School student and College Action Campaign coordinator for PETA said his organization "is attempting to convince students that eating meat is incompatible with pro-life beliefs." This is sort of like PETA’s recent, goofy effort to convince Southern Baptists that Jesus was a vegetarian and so Christians should be too.
		PETA's Website (http://www.PETA.org) expressly disavows any position on abortion but this cockamamie ad campaign is another example of the organization's penchant for muddled sensationalism.
		Existential issues are obviously not resolvable by objective analysis but if PETA wishes to plunge itself into the scalding caldron of abortion politics (even while saying they aren't) they need to reconcile a few inconsistencies of their own.

		PETA has also lost the support of several supermodels who decided that, on second thought, they'd rather wear fur than go naked.

	PETA - Uncyclopedia
		PETA stands for "I Would Fuck a Chicken, If it Helped the Chicken", according to the hippy-dropout creators.
		PETA is also backwards for "Association for The Extermination of Plants", a secret subgroup of fanatics wanting to exterminate all plant life.
		The reason why PETA exists is because the founder, Ingrid Newkirk, after much deliberate scientific research, had become aware of the fact that meat causes people to become irrational and their behavior not unlike that of a child's.

		Before they are desensitized to the suffering of animals, PETA aims to help kids see the violent bloody truth behind their fathers’ outdoor pastime.

		PETA was first invited to help animals in North Carolina by a police officer who was appalled by conditions in area “shelters”—some are just shacks without heating in which animals were left to drown or freeze to death.
		PETA has provided euthanasia services to various counties in that state to prevent animals from being shot with a.22 behind a shed or gassed in windowless metal boxes—both practices that were carried out until PETA volunteered to provide a painless death for the animals, free of charge.
		PETA seeks to solve the animal overpopulation problem in North Carolina by subsidizing spay/neuter services, but we do not and will not hesitate to roll up our sleeves and do the dirty work at our own expense.
