Not counting animals PETA held only temporarily in its spay-neuter program, the organization took in 3,061 "companion animals" in 2006, of which it killed 2,981. According to Virginia's Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS), the average euthanasia rate for humane societies in the state was just 34.7 percent in 2006. PETA killed 97.4 percent of the animals it took in.

lets not forget those fur coats they stained with blood and red dyes. For every coat that could not be cleaned, more animals were killed for their fur as a replacement.

If you've ever taken a Tylenol or had an operation done you have contributed to the killing of animals. Open heart surgery, blood transfusions, cataract surgery ect... were all perfected on animals before they were ever performed on humans; and every new drug goes through animal trials.

So if you want to live by peta's rules fine, but you better not get sick.

I think it's said best that PETA is a PITA.

Penn and Teller had a show on PETA. It was petty good. I would post a video but it has some bad language.
