If anyone really wants to help animals, look up your local Humane Society/Animal shelter. Volunteer, donate, hang out. Anything helps.

They also asked games workshop to stop selling models with fur sculpted. Fake, molded, sculpted fur was too much for them.

It wasn't even animal fur.

Internet points or not, there are still too many who don't know the truth about PETA.

PETA is out for the money as much as OP is out for fake internet points
ZOMGNO
This was on the front page 2 days ago. I know, because I am on this site way too fucking much.

I’d rather have OP do this than commit mass animal murder
Panapanda
Can we donate monopoly money to them?
DrFagass
Yeah PETA is a piece of shit, I get that, but please don't make this a thing. This absolutely does not need to be on FP every day.
vomirrhea
It does. until people wose up and stop supporting them and stop giving them money
No really. It doesn't. I come here to laugh at shitty memes. If you want to protest an organization, do it on Facebook or twitter. Not here.
DojoHero
Someone please explain to me what Peta is and why they're involved with *anything* to do with animals?!
selkieselk
Peta claim to be an animal rights group but take the money and then treat animals and people disgustingly (as above). They also give 1/2
Thank you. They're such a horrible organisation I've no idea why they're still going still or why they are involved in anything?!
2/2 well meaning ideas such as veganism, cruelty-free products and reducing animal suffering a bad name by association and boil my piss.
MaxPower0404
Any PETA Imgurians out there want to weigh in on this?
Yeah, trust some random intern from peta rather than the evidence of them dumping dog bodies in trash cans.
CyborgScribe
It would be interesting to meet a PETA supporter but I never have. They are sorta like a cult.

PETA got the zoo in my hometown shut Down. It was around almost 100 years and was the oldest privately owned zoo in Canada
PerhapsAnotherPerspective
...The owner was charged with animal abuse for whipping a tiger. They closed because people didn't attend an abusive zoo
I grew up showing dogs. There's often cops at dog shows now because of a few incidences where PETA was showing up and putting rat poison in-
Cmon, stories like this only undermine valid criticisms of PETA as an organization. Stories like this have popped up from time to time 1/
(2013 Westminster being a major example) but there's never been any actual evidence implicating PETA. Let's not stoop to falsehoods. 2/2
The dog kennels and antifreeze in the water buckets. They were apparently trying to "put the animals out of their misery". Fuck PETA
DwayneTheRockTheToothfairyJohnson
Yeah if ANYONE took my dog and euthanized him, I'd be out for blood. I'd become (a shittier version of) John Wick

they call him...the boogeyman.

It's a fucking cult, just like scientology.
I would categorize them as radical terrorists honestly

Research who you're giving to, tools like http://www.charity">.org">http://www.charitynavigator.org and https://www.givewell.org are very useful in this. 3/3
Do more than lazily research charities on incomplete websites.

The sheep one for example
kickingnamesandtakingass
You're...you're joking right? You truly believe that shearing sheep rips their fucking skin off and leaves them bloodied? My god...
If it's done right it does not. Several shearers have been pleaded guilty to animal cruelty because of the footage released by peta...
Their euthanasia rates are fucking ridiculous. And there's at least one confirmed case of them stealing a family dog and putting it down....

2 against those interests. It doesn't do anything to show that PETA is a good organization or that they don't euthanize tens of thousands...
Did you have a look at that shelter and what services they provide?

the snopes article is pretty iffy. PETA did steal a dog off of a guys porch.
