PETA says no more mall pet stores. Here’s the release:

This morning, PETA sent a letter to Asheville Mall Property Manager Cory Mann urging him to deny current tenant Pet Luv a new lease when it comes up for renewal and to adopt a permanent policy banning pet stores that sell cats and dogs. PETA points out that The Asheville Humane Society receives about 8,000 to 10,000 unwanted animals annually, and every time a pet store sells a dog or a cat, it kills the chances for an animal in a local animal shelter to find a loving home.

Funny how Peta has no problem Killing about 20% of the animals they take in each year.

Everyone NEEDS to go to youtube and search for the Penn and Teller Bullshit episode about PETA.

It’s horrific. You will never support them again. Or at least, if you will, we will know your a complete and total idiot.
