Not to mention they fund eco-terrorism. Not only do they fund it but they are proud of it.

Kinda crazy if you ask me...
This is very true. Many PETA supporters also support Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and Earth Liberation Front (ELF), which are considered terrorist organizations by the federal government. They are radical to the extreme. It's one thing to be a vegetarian, it's another to be a PETA person. I think many people support PETA without really realizing what the organization does.

Another organization people should stay clear from is the Humane Society of the United States. DO NOT confuse it with your local humane society that takes in animals and adopts them out. HSUS is an activist organization that is similar to PETA and ALF in many ways, and most people donate money to them without realizing that it is not connected to their local humane society. Always donate your money and time to your local society, not this organization.

I really appreciate this post. VERY informative.

I remember how wierd that episode of the The Two Coreys (Coreys Haim and Feldman) was when the PETA rep came to dinner. Like a cult. Borderline Scientology.

Hm, if you look at a well rounded diet, it includes all food groups.

That is what the Man Upstairs made them for.

You can eat what is good for you or starve.

Think I wil have a bit of beef roast and vegies tonight!
