Should PETA Be Considered a Terrorist Organization?

Question

Well, now they are. PETA is now a terrorist organization.

Senate bill (S. 3880) was passed September 30 (legislative day, September 29), 2006 and brands as ‘terrorists’ nonviolent animal protection advocates, invokes excessively harsh penalties for comparable offenses, authorizes unwarranted wiretapping of animal protection advocates, interferes with prosecution of real terrorism against the American people.

Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act - Amends the federal criminal code to revise criminal prohibitions against interfering with the operations of an animal enterprise to include conspiracies and attempts. Revises and increases monetary and criminal penalties for such crimes and denies equal protection under the law and limits freedom of speech and assembly.

Im not a fan of PETA, But should they be considered TERRORISTS? (I can see the headlines now...."PETA activists arrive at Guantanamo")

Answer 1

New World Order

There is a group of people… across this planet wide,
with greedy little fingers - and power on their mind,
they do not care ‘bout sovereignty - the one-world is their goal,
Liberty is their enemy… and their deity is Control.

They march across the history books - possess an ageless plan,
leading us toward dependency - to a woman and a man,
their map to domination is as old as time itself,
mixing ancient mysteries with technology off the shelf,

Keeping us in darkness - their faces unrevealed,
the shadows are their foxholes and secrecy is their shield,
they manipulate behind the scenes - relentless without fear,
a crescendo of disparity that builds from year to year.

They provide us our distractions - engulf us day to day,
preparing to enslave us, they slowly wear away
a catalogue of liberties - and while freedoms wane and cease,
they tell us that they’re doing it for security and for peace,

They prey upon our apathy - in a plot you can’t untwist,
policing how you think and feel… they tighten an iron fist,
they terrorize the spirit of hope with fear and guilt and shame
‘til there’s nothing left of who you were but a ghost, a shell, a name.

They rule from modern castles - elitist to the core,
they think of you as mindless stock to serve them evermore,
they’ll take away your firearms so you cannot self-defend,
and tag you with an ID chip… to keep you in your pen.

There is a group of people… across this planet wide,
who are waiting for their moment - and time is on their side,
the New World Order is the dream - and dominion is the gain,
but they cannot reach this final goal… ‘til Liberty has been slain.

Answer 2

Yes they should.

They have supported KNOWN terrorists.

They have sent money to the Earth Liberation Front ELF, supported Rodney Adam Coronado, who showed students how to make fire bombs.

Ingrin Newkirk, PETA's founder called Coronado a "nice young man" while lamenting that she does not have the courage to commit these crimes herself.

Ingrid Newkirk, PETA's founder told the New York Daily News that she'd be the last person to condemn ALF.
During his talk at American University in January 2003, Coronado, Ingrid's "nice young man" told his audience, "I think [food producers] should appreciate that we're only targeting their property. Because frankly I think it's time to start targeting them."

Yep a nice young man.

You don't have to dig that deep to see the PETA supports and should be considered a Terrorist Organization.

Oh DO NOT EVERY GIVE A PET TO PETA, they KILL something like 70% of ALL pets given to them while they protest shelters that only kill a small percent of pets given to them.

I'll stop before I really get started on a rant here.

Answer 3

PETA itself is not a terrorist group, but they have allowed themselves to become the public face of the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and similar organizations that do engage in violent and threatening activities.

Answer 4

I wish you had included a site.

I don't think PETA gone this far but certain groups have crossed the line into terrorism. Setting fires to business that sale Hummers & SUVs, for example.

Answer 5

I'm not a fan of PETA either, but I agree with you. The funny thing is now they are probably going to be treated worse then the animals they are trying to protect. So I guess they succeeded in getting better treatment to animals....by comparison.

Answer 6

YES!! After the fanatic actions some members have and will take in the name of their organization, then YES!! Same can be said for Anti-Abortion groups that feel its OK to threaten, blow up, and otherwise wreak havoc.

Answer 7

Yea, PETA is too damn violent to be a normal activist organization. They burn our buildings and stuff. Why don't they just get some competent lobbyists in Cangress?

Answer 8

PETA should simply be considered one of the most useless and worst run organizations ever... should be disbanded and somebody with a brain start it over.

Answer 9

I have no use for PETA, I think they are PITA, but I wouldn't lump them with Islamofascists either.

Answer 10

YES! PEOPLE EATING THE ANIMALS is a horrible name and organization
