PETA Attempts to Use A Heinous Murder To Push Their Wacko Agenda

Last week a heinous murder was committed on a Greyhound Bus in Canada where one passenger killed another passenger.

Just a week after the gruesome decapitation death of a passenger on a Greyhound bus in rural Manitoba sent shock waves around the world, an animal-rights lobby is drawing comparisons between the victim’s death and the handling of meat animals in North American slaughterhouses.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals submitted an ad for publication in the Portage Daily Graphic this week that compared the murder of Tim McLean, 22, to the “needless killing” of chickens, cows and pigs in “factory farms.”
“Like human victims, animals in slaughterhouses experience terror when they are attacked by a knife-wielding assailant,” says PETA’s Lindsay Rajt in a news release. “We are challenging everyone who is rightly horrified by this crime to look into their hearts and consider leaving violence off their dinner plates.”

National Post
This ad is way over the top and I understand why the paper wouldn’t run it. I also think that the crazy ridiculous ad should be shown so the mainstream can see how whacked this organization really is.

Of course this stance by PETA is hypocritical when they as an organization euthanize animals. PETA workers were caught here in North Carolina a few years ago dumping dead dogs and cats in dumpsters.

Now don’t get me wrong I understand that an overpopulation of dogs and cats must be controlled and euthanizing them in many cases is the only option. However if you’re an organization that equates the life of a cat, dog, chicken or cow as an equal with humans it seems inconceivable that you could kill them Never mind demonizing those who utilize animals for food as established by the Creator.
