their Wikipedia page pretty much sums up why I despise PETA with a passion
"Since your daddy is teaching you the wrong lessons about right and wrong, you should teach him fishing is killing. Until your daddy learns it's not fun to kill, keep your doggies and kitties away from him. He's so hooked on killing defenseless animals, they could be next."
Because you know, killing a fish to eat is the same thing and randomly killing cats!
"PETA launched a new effort aimed at teenagers. The new campaign attempted to place advertisements in highschool newspapers and printed trading cards claiming that dairy products caused
acne,
obesity,
heart disease,
cancer, and
strokes.
[131] A similar campaign in the UK was ordered by the
Advertising Standards Authority to discontinue claims it made about milk consumption in a campaign aimed at school children, concluding that the campaign "played on children's anxieties and were likely to cause some children undue fear and distress."
[132] Following the injunction, PETA revamped their trading cards in order to continue the effort.
[133] Their website
www.milksucks.com though, still makes the same claims regarding adverse health effects."

"While still in the legal proceedings over "peta.org," PETA registered the domains
www.ringlingbrothers.com and
www.voguemagazine.com, using the sites to highlight the cruelty that they say
Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus and
Vogue were guilty of. PETA later surrendered the domains under threat of legal action over trademark infringement.
