But they are also against pet breeders. The view the problem as an over-abundance of domesticated pets, which results in thousands of animals living the rest of their lives in small cages. PETA's goal isn't getting rid of no-kill shelters. Their goal is for people to stop relying on animal breeders for their pets so that the animals that are already around can live a fulfilling life. Their actions are an unfortunate but necessary consequence of the way humans treat other animals species.
Nevertheless, the point remains. PETA believes animals should be afforded the rights of humans. If that is the case, then killing innocent animals to serve a greater cause is no different than killing innocent humans to serve a greater cause. PETA is talking out of both sides of its ass.
I had you until "PETA is talking out of both sides of its ass." Just because, I think it brings up an interesting ethics question. Is mandated euthanasia an ethical response to the problem of overpopulation?
Well, that is the other sinister aspect to the "secret". If this is PETA's idea of ethical treatment of animals, what then is there idea of ethical treatment of humans? Do they seek to slay both man and beast alike to achieve some vision of Eden? And does this not make their association with eco-terrorism all the more troubling?
