Wow, no.
But what it does do is point out that PETA is full of shit and you shouldn't listen to the organisation that runs kill shelters becaus they think you shouldn't have pets.
The fuckers have actually STOLEN PETS and "euthanized" them inside of a day, when the animal was in good health and in a loving home.
FUCK PETA, they are a bunch of animal killers.

PETA does not kill animals because they're against pet ownership. PETA administers euthanasia services for shelters that are over capacity.
I assume that you are vegan and dont contribute to the industrialised mass killing of sentient beings in any way? Otherwise you seem quite hypocritical.
For a group of people saying thay they are for the ethical treatment of animals, they kill a whole lot of them unnecessarily.
PETA takes any animal. So those no kill shelters that you probably love so much have to get rid of animals and send the animal to the next shelter in the chain. Eventually, that could mean PETA shelters. Guess what that means? The most aggressive animals, the most disabled animals, the most sick animals, the most expensive to take care of animals, and otherwise those least desired by those looking for companion animals, are likely to end up at a PETA shelter. They don't have the funding, the staff, or the safety protocols in place to deal with the never ending supply that breeding creates. If you don't want PETA to kill animals, which they don't want to do, encourage the ban on animal breeding so there are fewer of these cases. Also stop pretending that your local no kill shelter is separate from that process. They just offload the bad press to PETA. Do not buy animals. Rescue & adopt.
And I have mentioned PETA when or how?
You were commenting on someone's rebuttal to PETA.
Lmao this bullshit again. PETA only euthanizes animals that are suffering and beyond saving. They accept animals that are rejected by those "no-kill" shelters that are more concerned with how their statistics look than helping suffering animals, which sometimes means euthanizing. The whole "PETA hates animals" thing is just another way for people to justify their own behaviour against animals. Do you honestly believe PETA is some kind of evil organisation that's out to kill animals out of pure spite?
Edit: see here
This person is 100% correct. I'm not a fan of PETA, but think before you downvote.
