Burn PETA down!

Now any of you wmart enough to have added Penn & Teller Bullshit (monday nights on Showtime) to your DVR recording schedule won't find any of this to be surprising but Something Dirty brought this to my attention and I will share it with you. Keep in mind, as you read this, that this is the same group that has its volunteers protest animal euthanasia outside Animal Control buildings and Humane Society buildings across the United States.

"ETHICAL" DEFINED: After more than 100 dead dogs were dumped in a trashdumpster over four weeks, police in Ahoskie, N.C., kept an eye on thetrash receptacle behind a supermarket. Sure enough, a van drove up andofficers watched the occupants throw in heavy plastic bags. Theydetained the two people in the van and found 18 dead dogs in plasticbags in the dumpster, including puppies; 13 more dead dogs were stillin the van. Police say the van is registered to the headquarters ofPeople for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and the two occupants,Andrew B. Cook, 24, and Adria Joy Hinkle, 27, identified themselves asPETA employees. An autopsy performed on one of the dogs found it washealthy before it was killed. Police say PETA has been picking up theanimals -- alive -- from North Carolina animal shelters, promising tofind them good homes. Cook and Hinkle have been charged with 62 felonycounts of animal cruelty. In response to the arrests PETA PresidentIngrid Newkirk said it's against the group's policy for employees todump animals in the trash, but "that for some animals in NorthCarolina, there is no kinder option than euthanasia." (Roanoke-ChowanNews-Herald) ...Oops, my mistake: that's "Playing God" Defined.

Next time you see a PETA protestor walk up, whip it out, and piss all over him.
