PETA is making the news - again

As reported here, PETA is now using shareholder resolutions with major corporations to push their agenda regarding using animals to test products. In order to do that, someone has to own at least $2,000.00 worth of stock. Now that seems "interesting" to me, in that, by owning stock in a company, you are expressing tacit approval for their policies and practices - including using animals to test products. So, in effect, PETA is both supporting and protesting corporate policies and practices in this area, at the same time!

And, get this - not only is PETA trying to shove their agenda down corporate throats, but according to this, they also kill animals - by the thousands - at their Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. How hypocritical of them. I guess the end justifies the means in their eyes.
