PETA and More Claims

Ah, yes. PETA. The name brings to mind images of rediculous ads comparing slaughterhouses to the Holocaust and the girl named goveg.org. Most of PETA's claims are out somewhere beyond the orbit of Saturn, so when they do come up with something that may actually be a valid complaint...most people ignore it.

A leading animal rights group has accused a northern Virginia laboratory of animal cruelty -- including charges of punching and choking lab monkeys -- and has produced a videotape to prove it.

The problem here is, like I said, nobody knows if this is really a problem...or is it Pamala Anderson boycotting KFC.

If they'd just get over the cute fuzzy animal thing and at least acknowledge them as a food source, they might get a little more crediblity. However, to me at least, they remain a weird fragment of society.
