"PETA said it's launched its own investigation."
Du lieber Himmel! The Gestapo is investigating the Fuhrer.
Hypocrites!
They want to tell everyone else how to raise their animals and they are the ones abusing them. Why should that surprise me?! Everything damn leftist say they stand for is a lie.
I AM SICK OF THEM!

PETA Employees Face 31 Felony Animal-Cruelty Charges for Killing, Dumping Dogs
Center For Consumer Freedom Has Warned “Ethical Treatment Of Animals” Workers Routinely Kill Animals
Ahoskie, NC – Last night, one month after the launch of www.PetaKillsAnimals.com, two employees of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) were arrested on 31 felony animal-cruelty charges for killing and disposing of dogs and puppies in a dumpster. Today the Center for Consumer Freedom is calling on Americans to stop making donations to support PETA and its grim-reaper program. When Ahoskie police arrested PETA employees Andrew Cook and Adria Hinkle last night, they found 18 dead dogs in a nearby shopping-center dumpster (including a bag containing seven dead puppies), and 13 more dead dogs in the PETA-owned van the two were driving. Police observed them throwing several dark-colored bags into the dumpster before the arrests were made.
This is not the first public mention of PETA’s large-scale euthanasia program. In May 2005 the Center for Consumer Freedom (CCF) unveiled a giant Times Square billboard and a new website (www.PetaKillsAnimals.com). CCF had obtained official records from the state of Virginia showing the militant animal-rights group had put over 10,000 dogs and cats to death since 1998.
In 2003 PETA euthanized over 85 percent of the animals it took in, finding adoptive homes for just 14 percent. By comparison, the Norfolk SPCA found adoptive homes for 73 percent of its animals and the Virginia Beach SPCA adopted out 66 percent. PETA’s required report documenting its 2004 record is currently over 4 weeks late.
A Bertie County (NC) Deputy Sheriff told The Roanoke-Chowan News-Herald that Cook and Hinkle assured the Bertie Animal Shelter “they were picking up the dogs to take them back to Norfolk where they would find them good homes.” Pittman added that persons identifying themselves as PETA representatives have picked up live dogs from that shelter during the last two months.
“This is disturbing behavior on the part of self-professed animal lovers, and I hope the public takes notice,” said Center for Consumer Freedom Director of Research David Martosko. “PETA raked in nearly $29 million last year alone, but apparently it couldn’t spare any money to care for the flesh-and-blood animals entrusted to its employees. It’s ironic -- If anyone else were caught red-handed with 31 dead dogs, PETA would be holding a press conference to denounce them.”
Martosko added: “Last month when we launched PetaKillsAnimals.com, we warned the public that PETA was not the warm and kind group it claimed to be. Now it’s clearer than ever that Americans who truly want to help animals should donate to their local animal shelter, not to PETA.”
The Center for Consumer Freedom is a nonprofit coalition supported by restaurants, food companies, and consumers, working together to promote personal responsibility and protect consumer choices.

Someone ("ProtestWarrior" maybe) should get photos of the piles of dead animals killed by PETA the next time they do their "Holocaust of Chickens" street shtick at the local KFC.
Does any one know if PETA will be selling the hides of the exotic cats that they killed to help raise money for legal fees for these two mean looking dudes? I sure would like a reasonably priced jaguar skin for the den!
Gulag
Quagmire
No exit strategy!
These lefty peta loonies are hypocrites? You're kidding me!
This is so sick.
Isn't PETA the same group who likes to occasionally send out video "evidence" of animal abuse at slaughterhouses--the abuse happening only when the PETA plants are present and running their videorecorders?
BUMP.

Look how bloodshot their eyes are. They probably got high and figured a dumpster was just as good as any place to dispose of these murdered animals.
What else would you expect from individuals associated with a movement that has generated the following statements:

"The cat, like the dog, must disappear... We should cut the domestic cat free from our dominance by neutering, neutering, and more neutering, until our pathetic version of the cat ceases to exist."

And, last but not least, Ingrid Newkirk pontificated the following:
