Take a Bite Out of PETA!

Despite its deceptively warm-and-fuzzy public image, People for the
Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has donated over $150,000 to
criminal activists -- including those jailed for arson, burglary, and
even attempted murder. In 2001, PETA donated $1,500 to the North
American Earth Liberation Front, a criminal organization that the FBI
classifies as "domestic terrorists." And since 2000, rank-and-file
PETA activists have been arrested over 80 times for breaking various
laws during PETA protests. Charges included felony obstruction of
government property, criminal mischief, assaulting a cabinet official,
felony vandalism, performing obscene acts in public, destruction of
federal property, and burglary.

And PETA's leadership openly advocates breaking the law. Click here to
listen to PETA vegetarian campaign director Bruce Friedrich
encouraging activists to commit arson against restaurants, medical
laboratories, and banks.

Like millions of other nonprofit groups in the United States (e.g.,
universities , houses of worship, social service organizations), PETA
pays no federal taxes on its income. But few of these other tax-exempt
groups share PETA's total disregard for the law. In 2002 PETA
collected over $17 million from Americans, avoiding over $3 million in
federal income taxes. Because this tax break amounts to a huge
subsidy, every American taxpayer is footing the bill for PETA's
behavior.

PETA's tax-exempt status was granted by the U.S. government on the
basis of the group's willingness to conduct itself in a lawful
fashion. We believe that PETA has failed to live up to its end of the
bargain, and that the Internal Revenue Service should cancel PETA's
tax-exempt status.

If you agree, please add your name and contact information below. Your
"signature" -- along with those of thousands of other Americans --
will be used to encourage U.S. government officials to take action.
PETA is currently being investigated by the IRS, so this is the
perfect time to make your opinion known.
