I feel like making a #PETA expose thread. Whenever you see them post their self-congratulatory articles that they themselves wrote and published, link this thread in response. PETA kills animals, spreads lies, harasses people, and supports eco-terrorism. Keep reading.
PETA have been caught kidnapping animals from homes and yards when they thought nobody was looking. The only reason this family got justice is because they had a security camera to prove that it was PETA who stole their dog: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/17/peta-sorry-for-taking-girls-dog-putting-it-down">https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2...
PETA kills so many animals at their "shelters" that it appalled lawmakers in Virginia and led to a nearly unanimous passing of a law that defined animal shelters as places whose primary mission was to find new homes for animals, not kill them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/religion/at-petas-shelter-most-animals-are-put-down-peta-calls-them-mercy-killings/2015/03/12/e84e9af2-c8fa-11e4-bea5-b893e7ac3fb3_story.html">https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/...
PETA dressed up as the KKK for one protest. They are even shameless about it and see no problem with using white supremacy to preach to us about animals. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2009/feb/12/race-animal-welfare">https://www.theguardian.com/commentis...
In 2011, PETA - yes, the same PETA that preaches "killing animals kills us all" - killed 96% of the animals that they brought into their facilities. PETA used to try to hide this from the general public, but have since rebranded it to "mercy killings." https://www.huffpost.com/entry/peta-kills-puppies-kittens_b_2979220">https://www.huffpost.com/entry/pet...
PETA constantly harasses researchers, and even encouraged the direct, targeted harassment (and subsequent doxxing) of researcher Christine Lattin right here on Twitter (cc @TwitterSupport @Twitter @Jack). https://speakingofresearch.com/2017/09/07/say-no-to-the-harassment-of-christine-lattin-by-peta-activists/">https://speakingofresearch.com/2017/09/0...
Here& #39;s a second source talking about that same harassment. https://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/peta-harasses-scientist-for-trying-to-save-birds/">https://www.iflscience.com/plants-an...
PETA once claimed that drinking milk is linked to Autism. I& #39;m not making this up. https://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/this-peta-advert-linking-milk-to-autism-has-caused-outrage-for-obvious-reasons/">https://www.iflscience.com/health-an...
PETA (predictably) opposed the hunting of an invasive species of Python because it was "being killed the wrong way" (which it wasn& #39;t). They claim to be experts yet don& #39;t know that a snake corpse will writhe for hours because of all the nerves. https://nationalpost.com/news/world/florida-must-kill-its-invasive-pythons-but-peta-says-theyre-being-killed-the-wrong-way">https://nationalpost.com/news/worl...
PETA supports terrorism. In 1995, they contributed $70,200 to Rodney Coronado, a convicted arsonist connected with the Earth Liberation Front (ELF). Images are pages from their 1995 Tax Return.

They& #39;ve also contributed money to eco terrorist organizations Earth Liberation Front (ELF) and Animal Liberation Front (ALF): https://nypost.com/2002/03/07/the-peta-elf-connection/">https://nypost.com/2002/03/0...
In fact, PETA has quite a history of extremist views. https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/people-for-the-ethical-treatment-of-animals-peta/">https://www.influencewatch.org/non-profi...
