email I received about PETA - chilling

[courtnek]

Dear friend,

Some time ago, you indicated your support for an on-line petition asking the IRS to revoke the federal tax-exempt status of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). While we're still hard at work trying to realize this goal, our most recent education effort is a new report exposing how PETA is targeting American children with its destructive messages.

PETA prides itself on attention-grabbing publicity stunts, but handing out graphic and violent propaganda materials to kids as young as six years old is extremely inappropriate. In some cases, PETA camps out in forunt of schools, intercepting small children as they walk to and from classes.

Examples of PETA's grotesque activism includes a comic titled “Your Mommy Kills Animals” (see below). Another PETA brochure, called “Question Authority,” shows a hand holding a bloody knife (also below). PETA activists also distribute stencils for spray-paint vandalism, stickers with obscene messages, and buckets of fake "blood" meant to scare kids away from eating meat. Shock tactics like these can scar children for life, and few parents realize their young ones are being targeted. Some of it is even done inside the schools, through the help of misguided teachers.

I hope you’ll read this groundbreaking report and pass it along to every parent and teacher that you know.


Sincerely,

Those guys really are bonafide sickos. My fiance once told me about a trip she took with her god-son to the capital. There on the white house lawn (with dozens of children present) was a PETA member playing horribly graphic footage of a cattle slauterhouse with the volume amplified to grotesque proportions.
My fiance got so upset, not just for her god-son but for all the kids present, that she went and had out screaming at him for something like twenty minutes. Believe me, I've witnessed her full verbal assaults first hand (not directed at me, mind you) and it's ALMOST enough to make be feel sorry for that sop of a blankity-blank-blank PETA guy.
Anyway, it took my fiance a week to finally be rid of the nightmares, and I hate to think what it did to that poor kid.

I seen the actual leaflets not long ago on a website which were being handed out to kids and they truly are disturbing.

someone on another forum posted this

I got this email today....maybe you can tell PETA what you think about these tactics....you do NOT have to give any personal information to take this survey

I hope the above link works...

to which I responded:I filled it out. and of course, the last screen to come up was "donate now!"

may not like it but here it is

PETA is a terrorist organization. How DARE you hand out pictures of mothers stabbing rabbits to SMALL CHILDREN? and you really think its a good thing for college students to "drink beer, not milk"?

your organization KILLED the lobsters you tried to "save" because the idiots involved never bothered to remove the rubber bands used to secure their claws. they all DIED, painfully.

Ingrid, you and your band of terrorist fanatics need to be in JAIL. I will continue to fight to have your "tax-free" status removed. I hope "Uncle Sam" puts your sorry asses away.

I had to give my email address. maybe they'll actually contact me...
