Thou shalt support killing animals if you want a job
Tuesday, November 3, 2009
News that the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) are recruiting for a new Aussie 'Celebrity marketing and media coordinator' has unearthed a curious question in the job application form that asks if the potential candidate agrees with the lobby's killing policy.
See the application form here.
The question reads:
8. Please review the argument regarding euthanasia and explain whether you agree or disagree with it. Please include the reasons why you agree or disagree.
The 'argument' presented is a lengthy essay on why PETA deems itself entitled to kill any animal it takes in, while ignoring the arguments for why it shouldn't or the hypocrisy inherent in lecturing others not to slaughter while it itself does.
Working at the organisation in 1991 former PETA intern Dave Shishkoff said:
"The vast majority of the animals Peta kills are far from terminal or suffering from incurable conditions. Peta claims to have a $30 million annual budget, yet cannot find home for about 2,000 cats and dogs each year. Not with $30 million dollars, or millions of members and huge lists of email addresses. Literally an armful of cats and dogs somehow survive Peta's 'rescues' each year."
Think you would get the job if you disagreed with PETA's position?

Ingrid kill-em-all Newkirk can't kill off the domestic pet population fast enough which is why they have no budget for re-homing. The sooner the pet-loving public realise this and stop donating the better which is why we support this website.
Her friend Wayne Pacelle is guilty of the same diabolical ideology. And yes, that is Wayne Pacelle of HSUS who have taken on Michael (Bad Newz Kennels, where they abused, electrocuted, hanged and drowned Pit Bulls until he was busted) Vick as a spokesperson on animal abuse!! Get your head around that!
Newkirk kills them while Pacelle is lobbying to stop them being born in the first place with his call for mandatory spay/neuter laws, despite the fact that the no-kill shelters with their use of funds to advertise for homes are saving most of the pets they work for, and are proving that where low/no cost voluntary neutering programmes are employed the public are willing and able to alter their pets.
Where it was made mandatory the problem became very much worse as people resisted compulsion and the main barrier to de-sexing - cost - was not addressed.
Not rocket science unless it's Newkirk and Pacelle and their ilk that you're dealing with.
This site is still unclear as to why this lobby deems it has the right to interfere with every animal's natural biological functions and then pressure others to also do so.
Simple Spike. The sooner they can kill and sterilise, the sooner the end will come for those animals suffering the 'cruelty' that Irksome Ingrid & Whacko Wayne think is pet ownership.
