It's a shame Eight Belles had to be euthanized at the Kentucky Derby. What's baffling is an organization that slaughters thousands of animals in the exact same manner is allowed to cry foul and use it as a platform to advance its psycho babble agenda.
PETA wants the jockey suspended for not knowing a complete accident was going to take place with a multi-million dollar horse. It's hard enough making weight for a jockey now they have to be psychic. In a contradictory demand:
PETA also announced plans to protest the Kentucky Horse Racing Authority on Tuesday, arguing for major changes, including a ban on using the whip or racing horses younger than 3. (AP)
I thought they were against all use of animals? Now they're saying, what the hell if the horse is three go right ahead and ride him...
PETA hypocritically kills by lethal injection 85% of the animals turned into its shelters annually. Thousands of pets take the dirt nap on PETA each and every year. For an organization with almost a million members you'd think they'd send them to a big PETA farm to live happily ever after like a Disney film. Fat chance.
How does the President of PETA morally justify the slaughter in her twisted vegan universe? According to the cult's head wackjob and founder Ingrid Newkirk; PETA provides, "...a painless exit from an uncaring world." They care so much they kill them dead. She goes on to describe a Walton's Christmas type exit where the animal is cooed, petted, and loved as it slips this mortal coil.
The reality is PETA was caught red handed injecting them in a van after they collected the animals from supposedly inhumane shelters in North Carolina and repeatedly left the bodies in a dumpster behind a Piggly Wiggly Supermarket. The bitter irony indeed. No doubt PETA picketed that chain for exploiting the wiggly in piggly.
PETA is a very dangerous cult. They compare processing animals for food to the Holocaust and owning an animal to slavery. Allowing them to speak for animals is like asking the ####'s to explain Passover.
PETA is the largest funder of animal rights terrorism in the world donating tens of thousands of dollars yearly to known terrorist groups like the ELF, ALF, arsonists and bombers. They send a convicted arsonist to colleges to explain how to make incendiary bombs to use on buildings and labs.
PETA will only be happy when every animal is "liberated" from man. In short, no shoes, belts, pets, livestock, meat, fish, or game, no guide dogs for the blind, no bio-medical use for life saving procedures and medicines. Scratch diabetics too, goodbye insulin, cross off leather goods like jackets, pants, or vests, furniture, and sporting equipment. No hunting, fishing or dancing bears. PETA wants to replace milk with beer for children. That's not even a joke or a typo.
Do they really care about horse racing? Do the math. If you turned over every horse used in the sport today, 85% of them would be bloated carcasses dumped behind your local supermarket within 24 hours. Because PETA knows an animal cannot bear the shame of once being held captive. So do us all a favor PETA ooze back into the swamp and leave horse racing alone. I can't wait until PETP, People for the Ethical Treatment of Plants reveal you for the mass murdering vegans you really are.
