Why do people support that orginization?

I think their orginization is driving people away from veganism & vegetarianism.

They bash on people who own pets. So if I have a dog with a missing leg and arthritis and I saved it frim dying that’s bad?

What about see-ing eye dogs? Nope, bad bad according to PETA. No wool either.
PETA has given tens of thousands of dollars to convicted arsonists and other violent criminals. This includes a 2001 donation of $1,500 to the North American Earth Liberation Front (ELF), an FBI-certified “domestic terrorist” group responsible for dozens of firebombs and death threats. During the 1990s, PETA paid $70,200 to an Animal Liberation Front (ALF) activist convicted of burning down a Michigan State University research laboratory. In his sentencing recommendation, a federal prosecutor implicated PETA president Ingrid Newkirk in that crime. And PETA vegetarian campaign coordinator Bruce Friedrich told an animal rights convention in 2001 that “blowing stuff up and smashing windows” is “a great way to bring about animal liberation.

PETA has repeatedly attacked research foundations like the March of Dimes, the Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and the American Cancer Society, because they support animal-based research that might uncover cures for birth defects and life-threatening diseases. PETA president Ingrid Newkirk has said that “even if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, we would be against it.”

What about rats? Yes they are living animals with feelings but all rats do is harm people in the first place.

They can do the AIDS testing on rats.

PETA also targets young children with horrifing pamphelts. I mean yes it’s hypocritical to give a child a cute little stuffed cow and then have the kid eat mcdonalds for dinner.

But still instead of scaring the living crap out of the kid come up with some better way to get kids to be vegan.

A knife through a bunny isn’t going to make anybody vegan more give the person nightmares.

I’m a vegetarian myself so no need to rant about how i’m a disgrace to animals.

2.Explain how the immune system is responsible for the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.

3.Explain how the pathogenic salmonella bacterium enters the human body by overcoming the body’s natural defences.

I am having some blood tests done thursday for a few different options like rheumatoid arthritis and hypothyroid, but I was wondering what you think..
I am 25 and have an 18mo old.
Tired often
Sore muscles
Achy joints
Painful fingers and tingling hands (especially after sleep)
Lack of energy
Low to no sex drive
Super dry skin and hair
I basically feel like crap all the time. I am normally active and work on my feet at my coffee shop. I eat fairly healthy and don’t get sick. I am young so it makes it harder to understand. That is why I am being tested. Anyone have an opinion? Thanks!

I am diagnosed with arthritis and have been taking lortab 10mg for a couple of years now for pain. Apparently, my doctor is on some kind of medical emergency and I haven’t had my pain medication in a few weeks. I have researched and I believe my body is withdrawing which is almost as painful as the artritis itself? I take it as prescribed and researching the medication I realize that all people do not do that and have ulterior motives so to speak. What can I do? I am not an addict; however I do believe my body is somehow addicted.

My mother suffers from osteo arthritis. She is on medication alright. But she limps whilst walking and suffers from regular pain. Is there anything other than medication which might provide her relief?

I have been having joint pain and also migraines and cluster headaches.I’m 16 and the amount of pain I’m in isn’t normal for my age. I’ve been to the doctors a lot recently and have had lots of tests done. I’ve been having headaches and migraines since I was in kindergarten and joint pain since third grade but it was explained away as growing pains. They’ve tested me for lupus, all kinds of arthritis, Lyme disease and a bunch of other things but nothing came of it. My ANA test is borderline positive. I went to the rheumatologist the other day because of this and he told me it was nothing. He said it was just stress. I don’t know how many doctors have told me that, but it’s really starting to get to me. I mean for all I know it is stress, but I don’t think so. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Thanks :)
I’m sorry, I forgot to add some things. I easily get overheated and will pass out and/or vomit when I do. Also when I go out into the cold, when it’s cold enough to snow, I get these blinding white lights swimming around in my vision and feel like passing out when I’ve only been outside for a few mintues. My dad thinks it might have something to do with my adrenal gland, I was wondering if that could be true.
Thanks again :)

Hey everybody, my dog is pretty much obese, and I have tried everything! She is currently on diet food, i have reduced her food consumtion, and I walk her for 1 hour and a half everyday! She’s a black lab and I read that obesity is common in labs, also she’s fixed so that might be a reason. Please help! is there anything else I can do? Im afraid she’s going to get diabetes or arthritis or something! Please help!
Im only 14 and I have been begging my mother to take her to the vet, but she keeps putting it aside like its not important. Also ive been saving up my money I earn so that I can get her lisenced so I can take her to the dog park to run around.
I have also stopped giving her treats. Although on the odd ocasion i will give her a small cube of cheese or a grape tomato. I was told that those things were okay for her.
I think my mother may be the one feeding my dog table scraps. (she doesn’t really care for Dakota that much, and she wont listen to me….)

I was rear ended with the impact of an SUV, a utility van carrying over 2000 pounds in the trailer that they were pulling and a U Haul truck. It was a domino effect because the vehicles behind me did not stop when I stopped for traffic. I was very lucky not to have had worse trauma. It happened in April 2009 and am still getting treatment, massage therapy, ultrasound and tens etc. from my chiropractor. I had over $8000 in damages for my Suv I was driving. I had x-rays and was found that I had a grade 3 whiplash, right shoulder, neck, mid and lower back trauma and pain. My muscles spasms got so bad that I wound up overnight in the emergency room for pain management etc. I was off work and could not walk for two weeks because of the pain was very bad it was difficult to breathe. As of today I am still having to have the same treatment with my chiropractor and two MRI’s. We found out that I have some arthritis which did not give me any pain in my normal day to day living and so I did not know I had soft bones. But since the accident I have had so much pain. My doctor told me that there has been a lot of arthritic changes and all of the pain may never go away and have lasting effects. Can someone give me an idea of what I deserve? Thank you!
