Wonder No More
This article about the Wonder Spot in Wisconsin makes me ridiculously angry.
ETA: Also, from this article, "A jury cleared two animal rights workers of animal cruelty charges Friday for euthanizing cats and dogs they took from shelters, but both were convicted of littering for dumping the carcasses in a trash bin.".
Let's look at that again.
"A jury cleared two animal rights workers of animal cruelty charges Friday for euthanizing cats and dogs they took from shelters, but both were convicted of littering for dumping the carcasses in a trash bin."
Also, "The animals were picked up from several shelters in northeast North Carolina. The pair testified that they euthanized the animals in the back of their van to relieve the animals' suffering.
They said they disposed of the bodies in a garbage bin rather than drive them back to PETA offices in Virginia, because the stench from the carcasses was overwhelming.
Hinkle, 28, of Norfolk, Va., and Cook, 26, of Virginia Beach were arrested in June 2005 after police said they saw them dump several bags of dead animals into a trash bin behind a grocery store. Police said they found more dead animals in the pair's van."
There is so much wrong with that I can't even BEGIN to comment on it. FOR FUCK'S SAKE PEOPLE. One of my roommates supports PETA and that told me all I ever wanted to know about her.
