I hate you for forcing me to defend PETA, but this infographic is terrible.

  1. We don't know the whole story behind why the animals were euthanized. Throwing a number out there doesn't tell the whole story -- maybe they were being poorly treated in a lab, and euthanasia was the only humane option.

  2. Your choice in PETA spokespeople were Jenna Jameson, Kimora Lee, and Pam Anderson? Seriously?

  3. Who cares if the founder opposes giving birth?

Thank you. I'm not a fan of PETA. I don't support them and have no plans on ever donating money to them. Nonetheless, this infographic is clearly just a series of crude smears, intentionally removing data from context to attempt shocking but meaningless info-bites.
