sheepskin..., animal cruelty?! Options

[*xcaitlinx*]

how come so many people consider shaving sheeps for their wool animal cruelty? THEY DON`T KILL THE ANIMALS! anyway, they shave the skin in the summer. The sheep prolly like it better because they dont have to have all that fur on their back in the heat. Explain to me how this is animal cruelty, because I really want to know.

^agreed.
i'm copying what i said in another thread, but it fits in here. and because i'm lazy. and peta just sucks.

they are totally FOR the killing of any animal they believe is "scary", aka, the pit bull. which are completely stable, smart, playful, family loving pets, IF PROPERLY TRAINED (isn't it like that with all dogs?). mind you, they don't even support people having pets,

I don’t use the word 'pet. I prefer 'companion animal.' For one thing, we would no longer allow breeding. People could not create different breeds. There would be no pet shops. If people had companion animals in their homes, those animals would have to be refugees from the animal shelters and the streets. You would have a protective relationship with them just as you would with an orphaned child. But as the surplus of cats and dogs (artificially engineered by centuries of forced breeding) declined, eventually companion animals would be phased out, and we would return to a more symbiotic relationship – enjoyment at a distance.

they spend more of their donated money to advertise themsevles, rather than, i don't know, maybe actually HELPING the animals.
"PETA's donations totaled only $206,655.58, but they had a total revenue of almost $14 Million.

PETA spent the following on

1. PETA TV - Expense - $13,268.84
2. Electronic equipment, computers, cameras - Expense- $33,869.24
3. Automobiles - Expense - $148,362.02
4. SNAP Vehicle - Expense - $150,000.00
5. Buildings and improvements - Expense - $295,101.60 (After a $195,000 donation of property)
6. Land - Expense - 94,170.00"
kind of looks like about less then one precent went to do what peta is "all about".

they also donated thosands of dollars to ELF or ALF, both activist extremists. both under FBI watch for terrorsim in arson, bombings, cutting the brake lines on fishery trucks, breaking and entering, destruction of government and organizational research laboratories and murder. because we all have no problem supporting terrorism.

"If we really believe that animals have the same right to be free from pain and suffering at our hands, then, of course we’re going to be, as a movement, blowing things up and smashing windows … I think it’s a great way to bring about animal liberation … I think it would be great if all of the fast-food outlets, slaughterhouses, these laboratories, and the banks that fund them exploded tomorrow. I think it's perfectly appropriate for people to take bricks and toss them through the windows ... Hallelujah to the people who are willing to do it."

no comment to that. haha.

they're hypocrites. they are against using animal research in the medial field. yet vice president willingly injects insulin for her diabetes. she says she needs her life fighting for animals. if that wasn't enough, try this, "Even if animal tests produced a cure for AIDS, we’d be against it" wow. lets kill million humans, in the present and future, just to save some animals lives?
