Methinks electr0smith is referring to PETA's notorious zeal in culling domesticated animals.    Killing off adoptable pets, even going as far as to *steal pets and kill them*, serves no practical purpose at all except in the deranged minds of these animal "rights" nutjobs. Their end goal is to keep people from having any sort of interaction with animals, at all. Not as farm animals, not as service animals, not as pets.
