Words from the President of PETA, Ingrid Newkirk:
"People have no idea that at many animal shelters across the country, any "pit bull" who comes through the front door goes out the back door -- in a body bag...This news shocks and outrages the compassionate dog-lover. ..Here's another shocker: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the very people who are trying to get you to denounce the killing of chickens for the table, foxes for fur, or frogs for dissection, supports the pit bull policy..."
Those who argue against the euthanasia policy for pit bull dogs are naive.
I have scars on my leg and arm from my own encounter with a pit. Many are loving and will kiss on sight, but many are unpredictable.
People who genuinely care about dogs won't be affected by a ban on pits. They can go to the shelter and save one of the countless other breeds and lovable mutts sitting on death row through no fault of their own.
We can only stop killing pits if we stop creating new ones. Legislators, please take note."
•PETA supports breed specific legislation.
•Not just for pit bulls, but for ANY breed. They specifically mention Rottweilers, Dobermans and other "guardian" breeds. They see it as a first step to banning the ownership of any pet animal.
•PETA lawyers work hard to bring breed specific legislation to jurisdictions, as well as supporting the wholesale killing of all bull breed or animals which happen to share bull breed characteristics in "shelters".

OK. "People who genuinely care about dogs won't be affected by a ban on pits." Oh? How does the writer figure this?
ReplyDelete"They can go to the shelter and save one of the countless other breeds and lovable mutts sitting on death row through no fault of their own." ....but the PitBulls that are on death row are there *because* of their faults? Is that the implication? Geeze.
So, basically what PETA is telling us is, there are a few attacks from a specific breed of animals, so they should all die? All dogs of that breed?
ReplyDeleteIf you truly believe that, you're sick in the head.
That's like saying, one year there are statistically a few more bank robberies by Caucasians. So, all Caucasians should be killed? Is that what you're trying to say, PETA?
You have lost the loyalty of one of your supporters because of your ridiculous views. You are supposed to protect animals, not kill them one breed at a time.
Get fucked.
