Guess PETA wants that to happen all over again over their beliefs.
You are talking about 2 different things. I have not seen any evidence of peta employees taking healthy dogs from shelters, promising them homes, and then killing them. As to the second point, I already said that I did not agree with that for whatever that's worth.

The second link is an opinion column written by an editorial writer, not a journalist. They are two very different jobs. I have not seen any report of that incident written by a journalist stating peta did this. I am very open to seeing one but couldn't find one myself. Editorial writers not only do write opinion and conjecture- that is what they are expected to do. Journalist have to report facts.
