I hate to see the humane society lumped together with Peta, If any of you get a chance try to see HBO:
I Am An Animal: The Story of Ingrid Newkirk and PETA. It's a documentary about Peta, and interviews with Newkirk and the director of the humane society show some very real and extreme differences between the two groups. Netflix has it for those of you who don't have HBO
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/I_Am_an..._PETA/70080353 I would not have believed it if I didn't see it for myself, her words, her thoughts. It also reports of other even more extreme groups than Peta, but adds that these groups are thought to be financially backed by Peta.
