Among other stunts PETA has:
Directly compared victims of the Holocaust to animals in holding pens, going so far as to place pictures of both side-by-side.
Distributed pamphlets depicting an evil-looking woman slaughtering a rabbit titled Your Mommy Kills Animals that contained graphic images of a skinned carcass. This pamphlet was specifically targeted and distributed to children. Here's a direct quote from the comic:
"Do you have a puppy you take for walks or play ball with?
But how would you feel if someone took away your
kitty or puppy, stomped on their head, and ripped
their skin off their bodies?"
They ran advertisements directly comparing slaves and the oppression of Native-Americans to animals in captivity.
PETA has also funded ALF, an extremist animal-rights organization responsible for millions in property damage.
Even other animal rights organizations have distanced themselves from PETA and Ingrid Newkirk, the founder, has been shown to be a grossly egocentric person with delusions of grandeur who sincerely feels she is on par with abolitionists or civil rights leaders.
