Opponents
The following organizations openly oppose greyhound racing through the media-- and to the public:
- GREY2KUSA
- American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA)
- Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) - HSUS EXPOSED!
- HSUS is the single richest animal rights group in the world, with over $100 million in the bank,. And it has absolutely no connection to your local “humane society” or ASPCA animal shelters. The recent issue of Worth magazine rates HSUS among the worst-managed U.S. charities. “We’re not saying they’re crooked,” offers Worth writer Reshma Memom Yaqub, “but we do take issue with some business practices of these charities, especially when they spend too much money on fundraising.” Worth notes that HSUS took in over $65 million in 2000, yet spent more than half of it to raise more money.
- People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PeTA) - PeTA EXPOSED!
- PETA has stated repeatedly that their goal is "total animal liberation." This means no pets, no meat, no milk, no zoos, no circuses, no fishing, no leather, and no animal testing for lifesaving medicines.PETA has given tens of thousands of dollars to convicted arsonists and other violent criminals.
- PETA funds the misnamed Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, an animal-rights organization that presents itself as an unbiased source for nutritional information and has links to a violent animal-rights group called SHAC.
- PETA has used their contributors’ tax-exempt donations to fund the North American Earth Liberation front, an FBI-certified “domestic terrorist” group responsible for fire bombs and death threats.
- PETA regularly targets kids as early as elementary school with anti-meat and anti-milk propaganda.
- PETA spends less than one percent of its $13 million budget actually caring for animals.
