Default Petition To Rescind PETA's Tax-Exempt Status

Please excuse my ignorance on this, but could you detail some of the success
they have had in MA? Other than throwing red dye on fur coats, and getting
the film industry to add the stupid disclaimer that no animals were harmed
during the shooting of this movie, I wasn't aware of any big successes they
have had (but I am probably just not in touch with what they are doing).
Mostly my opinion is that PETA is simply a PITA bunch of veggies that
occasionally file a meritless but sensational lawsuit to get their name in
the news - kind of like the ACLU for animals. (That ought to get a rise).

The problem I have with it is that some of the members of Consumer

Freedom
are a bigger threat to fishing than PETA, which I consider a minor
annoyance.


Trust me, in the areas where PETA has had some success, (MA for one), they

are
far more than a "minor annoyance". I don't know jack **** about Consumer
Feedom, so I'll trust you on that one.
