The people over at PETA are an interesting bunch. There’s a ton of money funding that racket, which must come from highly wealth individuals. Then there’s the people who run the joint itself. And lastly there’s the plethora of models who “take their clothes off” in protest of fur.
I think that’s PETA’s biggest claim to fame, their biggest splash, their most recognizable awareness raiser. It’s become almost a tradition. Does it work? I mean, does it stop the fur industry in any way? Well, think about it like this: if this is PETA’s longest running gimmick, doesn’t the fact that they STILL need to do it speak to the effectiveness of it?
PETA is an organization run by self-made idiots. No, that’s not a character assassination. That is actual fact. PETA intentionally rallies its members to be as thoughtless and brain-dead as possible. That is their goal, that is their intended mindset. I know this because of the PETA activist who I caught and have treated back to health here one the island.
Let me start by explaining that I do have top-shelf gripes with PETA; they have been on our case since the very beginning. At first they led a campaign claiming that Dog Island was really a front to get dogs for a dog meat company in China. Once they found out that wasn’t true, they couldn’t let go of the hate; they found new things to target us about. It’s like once you’re targeted by PETA, even if the initial reason is wrong, they can’t admit mistake..EVER.
So PETA proceeded to harass us, send us threatening letters, email their followers to call us nonstop.. it was horrible. They claimed that we were doing a disservice, setting an example to people that it’s ok to make your own decisions about your relationship with animals, that people shouldn’t be able to set their dogs free, because dogs needed love and caretaking and domestication.
All complete and utter hogwash made up by idiots, intentionally self-made idiots.
Last month we had our first activists invade the island. Five college-age kids took kayaks to shore; our security system caught the whole thing but they of course thought they were being ultra secret spy kids. They had cameras on them, and a jar of red liquid (I assume fake blood) to be used in some stupid prank to raise awareness of some sort against us.
Well, these idiot kids ignored all the warning signs across the shore. They landed on Big Dogs Island, a place only the most seasoned dogologists can handle, and these kids had malice in their moods, so there really was no hope for them. Through the intercom system I told them “boys and girls, this is Han Fei, you must leave immediately. You are in serious danger. You have invaded upon Big Dogs Island and they WILL kill and eat you. You must leave immediately.”
They all froze for a moment and turned to look at the shortest boy in the group (apparently the leader) and he became an angry face and told the rest of his team that this was a “common tactic of Dog Island to try and confuse us”. Like I said, idiots. But because they now realized I knew they were on the island, they began to run faster in search of dogs to plant fake photos on.
I knew this wouldn’t turn out well, so I went to save them at their location.
I didn’t see what happened as I trekked out to their location, but I reviewed the tapes afterward. As soon as they came within earshot of the nearest den, all the dogs sounded the alarm and cried for bloody murder. A golden retriever came first to check out the intruders, and the PETA ‘leader’, emboldened by his brainlessness, knelt down and coo’d “Hey fella… how’s it going? I have a treat for ya. You want a treat? Heey good booy…” all in patronizing baby voices.
Ultra mistake. Those patronizing voices are the kill-switch for Dog Island dogs; it reminds them of their past misery. Well that golden lunged in a flash for the PETA boy-leader. Now, dogs know how to kill; they know to go for the neck; it’s instinctual in all hunters. But this golden went for the boy’s legs first. It clearly wanted the boy to be unable to run away. A moment later as the other PETA kids turned to run, they realized they were surrounded by the pack; a german shepherd, a great dane, a couple of mastiffs, a scottish deerhound, and a komodor! These kids had absolutely no chance. All the dogs followed in line with the golden’s actions, taking out the legs first.
Then as the kids were lying on the ground, the dogs proceeded to slowly tear them apart. First the legs, then the arms, then the innards, then the face, and finally the neck. Horrible. I may have described too much but I could have given much worse detail. The point is that they clearly intended to torture these PETA kids, the baby talk just flipping the switch.
By the time I got there one of the kids – Jenny – was lying on the ground crying. Her four friends were mostly dead and eaten at this point and she was simply unable to walk; seemed the pack had its fill at the moment. I called to them in anger and asked them to please let me treat the woman. They agreed so I put her in the wheelbarrow and brought her back to the medical center.
It was there, while treating her wounds, and earning her trust over her healing period, that she opened up to me about the training & propoganda methods they use over at PETA. She said she had been given literature that to save animals you have to be an animal, turn off your mind, not question the facts, not ever let anything make you feel like you’re wrong. That animals have only emotion, and the way to save animals is by having no rational thought, to have only emotion and wild pursuit of the end goal.
And this is how I know that PETA intentionally creates idiots. And the thing about this method is that it illuminates how little PETA understands about animals. This very philosophy insults the highly intelligent natures of all species. PETA’s very philosophy is “if you’re not like us, you’re an idiot” extends even to the beings they claim to protect and fight for.
Anyway, Jenny is now in our dogologist training program. It’s no surprise really that she had a really good heart, a heart that was tricked into false beliefs by PETA, and now that she’s seen the heart of Dog Island, she’s fallen in deep love with the vision here.
