I only read as far as the second paragraph:
"It seeks a court order allowing PETA to administer all proceeds from the photos for the benefit of the monkey,.."

That tells me all I need to know about whose "benefit" they are really concerned with.

"animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way"

I can visualize the monkey owning a nice place in Monaco, with about a dozen live-in PETA "staff" members to serve him his afternoon cocktail and cigar.

Its hard to take PETA seriously, thankfully not many people do.

I don't know................ they seem to always be around, with plenty of money to spend. I'm sure their membership is fairly large. However, I'm sure a lot members wouldn't admit to it! :icon_mrgreen:

Because they ask "do you like people kicking puppies? No? Give us $20 or its like you are the one who kicked the puppy!"

Then they take your $20 and spend it protesting against people who use hand sanitizer because bacteria may or may not have feelings or some equally crazy idea.

I am all for stopping animal abuse but Peta blurs the line between good deeds and bat **** crazy people.

We once had an employee who was one of their activists. She did not tell us, but I noticed her out demonstrating.
