And in what factual ways are they not spending that money properly currently? No offence but I think you don't actually follow the organization FATWIFE, First Lady Of GGD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic 11,922 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 15 minutes ago, Princess Die said: It would be nice if they could actually do something productive, like work at an animal shelter and help with the issue they claim to be against. The possibilities are literally endless if they actually put in any effort with their work. At the end of the day PETA are an organisation and like any they do value profit. It would be naive to think otherwise. They do so much good; undercover work to exploit factories, in education and they typically 'help' a majority of animals rather than just domesticated ones. However they also have many negative aspects; killing animals and dumping the bodies, their adverts, they lack honesty and they've done countless publicity stunts that have definitely cast a negative light on the organisation. It's hard to actually take PETA seriously anymore as a result. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
windzo 811 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 This article is But TMZs video was made to mislead the public. Here is a better source for what happened:http://www.americanhumane.org/press-release/independent-investigative-report-on-a-dogs-purpose-finds-edited-video-mischaracterized-what-happened-on-the-set/ Spoiler The findings of the independent investigation confirm that no animals were harmed in those scenes and numerous preventative safety measures were in place. The investigation and eyewitness reports have brought to light the following facts: The video was deliberately edited for the purpose of misleading the public and stoking outrage. In fact, the two scenes shown in the edited video were filmed at different times. The first video scene was stopped after the dog showed signs of stress. The dog was not forced to swim in the water at any time. A full spectrum of preparation and safety measures were in place, including the following: Prior to shooting the scene, safety meetings were held to go over and reinforce safety precautions and protocols. The dog was selected for his love of the water, and had been professionally trained and conditioned for the water scenes over the course of six weeks, using positive training techniques. In addition to one of American Humane’s Certified Animal Safety Representatives, five experts—including safety specialists and animal handlers—were present to supervise and safeguard the dog throughout the water scene. During the last scene, handlers immediately assisted the dog out of the water, at which point he was placed in a warming tent and received an examination that found no signs of stress. Eyewitnesses report that the dog wanted to go back in the water. Still, out of an abundance of caution, American Humane stopped filming of any more scenes with the dog. A veterinary checkup was performed last week at the request of American Humane, which confirmed that the dog is healthy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't watch the film regardless solely because of the original clip that surfaced. They arrived in a white van, stole a family's little dog off their porch (because tying up dogs is 'cruel')... and then euthanized the dog within a few hours since they had no place to keep it! PETA gave the family a flower basket as an apology the folks tried to press charges but for various reasons, it didn't go anywhere.
