PETA’s the Best—At Killing Dogs and Cats
Another year, another pile of dead dogs and cats for the crematorium, courtesy of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). Late Tuesday night—almost literally at the last minute—PETA filed its 2016 animal custody information with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) admitting it had killed nearly 72% of the cats and dogs […]

India Has a Cow About PETA Bull
PETA has really stepped in it. The organization is facing calls to be banned from India after its advocacy to shut down Jallikattu, a tradition in southern India. People have taken to the streets to protest PETA—both in India and in Norfolk, Va., where PETA’s headquarters is located. (And where PETA has killed tens of […]

PETA Tries to Make Nice with Congress
We received notice today that PETA will be handing out awards on Thursday night in advance of the Presidential Inauguration. Awardees include Reps. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), Dina Titus (D-Nev.), Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.) and Vern Buchanan (R-Fla.).

PETA Blames the Victim
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) sure has a weird way of showing what it’s all about. In a recent lawsuit against the organization, PETA is accused of stealing and murdering a Hispanic family’s beloved dog named Maya in southeastern Virginia.

PETA Rains on Pokémon Go Parade
Assuming you enjoy fun, there are three types of joy-spoilers you should never invite to a party: conspiracy theorists, nihilists, and people from PETA. Case in point: Pokémon Go was released last week, and (literally) the entire world went wild. In just seven days, The Guardian reported, the game had surpassed Twitter in daily US users. But then PETA […]

Flashback Friday: PETA Didn’t Meet its Own Animal Shelter Guidelines
There’s no shortage of outrageous news PETA will shamelessly generate for itself. Between protesting in the nude and staging a parody Holocaust memorial, PETA’s desperate stunts for attention all fulfill its self-stated mission of being “complete press sluts.” But PETA doesn’t love all of the attention it gets, especially when it comes to its own “shelter.” Remember: […]
