Default Petition To Rescind PETA's Tax-Exempt Status

George writes:\

In 1996, using a well funded disinformation campaign, PETA was able to
convince
the residents of MA to pass Question 1, which for all practicle purposes
outlawed trapping. There has since been an explosion in the beaver population
that has caused a great amount of damage, and has established thousands of
acres of new mosquito habitat, at a time when West Nile Virus and Eastern
Equine Encephalitis are on the upswing in southern New England.


Also, the anti-trapping law has allowed the coyotes population to rise very
quickly. On an ironical note, the folks closer to Boston and in the hoity
toity towns of Lincoln, Wellsley, and Weston who were for the law, have found
the coyotes killing their poor Fifis and wonder why it is happening.
