Andi,
Thank you for taking the time to post the additional information.
After reading the newspaper article, I realized the Torrance Animal Control officers made no effort whatsoever to help those poor birds. They took the easy way out!
It's so very sad; if only we could turn back time.

Hi Andi,


Thank you for the additional information.

This is so truely heart wrending to read about and to imagine.

I have heard other sources which quote press-releases about PITA being caught euthenizeing animals in large numbers, or pretending to adopt them from shelters and then killing them, because 'PITA' felt these Animals were not going to be loved the way PITA felt they should, so, PITA kills them or drops the dime on some private person who does rescue work, so that the 'authorities' show up and kill the Animals.

This seems quite unsound to me, to state it mildly.

Maybe I should say, it seems insane...vile, decietful...


Oh, anyway...

I just remembered that back in the summer two PETA employees were arrested "down east" in NC for supposedly "rescuing" dogs but they euthanized them. The last I heard they will be tried for cruelty to animals. I'll try to get more info on this.

Hi Andi,

Thanks for taking the time to tell the other side of the story. It's very disheartening to hear of PETA's involvement from you and others here.
This is all just too sad.

Hi all,


The 'Not Milk' internet newsletter has had several mentions of 'peta' misdemeaners.

Mr. Cohen is adeeply sincere advocate of Animal rights and is a Vegan and has been deeply disappointed with the increasing reports of deplorable behaviours toward animals by 'peta'.

One may subscribe by visiting his web site...

His 'Not Milk' web site and internet news letter of course is largely about the dairy industy unpleasantness and the true unpleasant ness of their products and the quality of their products and practices, and how Milk and dairy generally are not so benign nor healthy as we had been led to suppose...

See...

Robert Cohen

Love,

I applause your compassion & empathy for the birds, but even if you have a car, aren't you a little young to drive?

Just showing you are pro-pigeon, and being respectful and loving of birds & animals on this earth is important. You can take action by educating people on the truth that pigeons are smart, don't carry anymore disease then other birds, and tape that Animal Planet Show (discussed on the other thread) about Birds of War, and share that with your classmates.

Phil love that website notmilk. I am a believer of not eating or drinking other animals flesh or milk. It's hard sometimes trying to find food, but I seem to manage. It's just a little more expensive. thanks for the link.....Andi

Dovena?


Anyone Here Think That Maybe The Member, Dovena, Is Possibly Mr. Enright. Just Reading From Other Post "25 Pigeons In Manhattan" And The Issue That Mr. Enright Had. Not Once Did "dovena" Ever Reply Or Post, Even With The Same Issues. Seems A Little Odd, Again Maybe It's Just Me.

Hi Grimlock,

Red & Dovena are two different people, some of our members know them individually.

Welcome to the forum by the way though!
