RE: PETA arrested for animal cruelty
I particularly enjoy how they've scheduled a "press conference" to address the issue. Meaning they will have time to come up with some sort of story that these two employees were using company funds and resources to carry out acts without the authorization or knowledge of the higher ups, who of course would have never let this happen if they would have known! Shame on these two!
What a joke.

RE: PETA arrested for animal cruelty
Here is some info from that website.
From July 1998 through the end of 2003, PETA killed over 10,000 dogs, cats, and other "companion animals" -- at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. That's more than five defenseless animals every day. Not counting the dogs and cats PETA spayed and neutered, the group put to death over 85 percent of the animals it took in during 2003 alone. And its angel-of-death pattern shows no sign of changing.
ยป skeptical? click here to see the proof
On its 2002 federal income-tax return, PETA claimed a $9,370 write-off for a giant walk-in freezer, the kind most people use as a meat locker or for ice-cream storage. But animal-rights activists don't eat meat or dairy foods. So far, the group hasn't confirmed the obvious -- that it's using the appliance to store the bodies of its victims.
In 2000, when the Associated Press first noted PETA's Kervorkian-esque tendencies, PETA president Ingrid Newkirk complained that actually taking care of animals costs more than killing them. "We could become a no-kill shelter immediately," she admitted.
