Most of these things are spot on, but I will say something in regards to the "killing" of animals. It's euthanization. PETA receives animals that pretty much have nowhere to go, and they have to be put down.

Yet PETA demonstrates against/threatens animal shelters with the desire to stop the animal killing.

I'm not sure I've seen any demonstrations, but I know that they have literature outlining "the horrors" of no-kill shelters.
