This is how i feel too, i'm sorry if i offended any YT members who are non- extreme Peta members with my post, i wasn't trying to disrespect any one who are genuinely trying to take a stand for animal rights, because it needs to be done, but to me, Peta views and tactics are extreme, all of us here love our pets and treat our babies very well, maybe better than our spouses! But Peta frowns upon pet ownership, it is very clear that they would rather the world be will out domesticated animals, because of homeless and abused pets. The OP link, has Peta and other organizations Spokes people who represents these groups publicly stating the goal to be "Phasing out companion animals, that means "we" (not just breeders) are the problem, no matter how well we treat our babies! I have read the Peta website, many times, as well as rereading this "My Dog my Choice" page just to make sure i wasn't misinterpreting the information. The only "ammo" i am using are the statements that the groups spoke persons' are saying on the OP link page. It's crazy how one word has changed the meaning of my entire post, which is still my feelings on the subject. Maybe Peta and other like groups should change their harsh tactics and get new spokes people that don't sound as though they want to eliminated cats and dogs and maybe i will be a little more opened minded to them.
