@Smackdxwn The KKK is actually quite large and active, just underground as @IconMatthew1 said White supremacy is a growing issue, fueled by internet sites and recruiting efforts. Just ask any cop in your town whether the KKK is still active. If they only have 50 members, then all 50 came to the rally the KKK had near my city like 10 years ago. The KKK and their terrible practices shouldn't be forgotten or ignored. That's how they will gain more power, and that's how history repeats itself.

@alirolls ahmen

PETA isn't accusing AKC of being like KKK. They are using the image of an abhorrent group to get a message across. I don't agree with using that image. But I do agree with the message, which is: "Please question your assumptions that purebred = better. Please don't support breeders, who are a major contributor to the 4,000,000 pets euthanized in the USA every year." If you care about dogs or cats, next time you want a pet, adopt. Never, ever buy.

@alirolls as I said I agree with the message but the imagery they used made me lose sympathy for them and their cause.

PETA lost all respect as far as I'm concerned!

And I love your line "No dalmation ever called me a N***er".

Amen to that!!

[soduswoods]

i agree with you. but though my research i have found that peta has killed more animal's then the race track's and abuse cases!!!

[inachu]

how can the kkk be a growing issue when the KKK group is getting smaller and smaller?

[Longshot593]

@brb1006 Perhaps you should look up what African Americans have done to the Native Americans.

[Longshot593]

So many nutjobs in the world today: KKK, Black Panthers, La Raza, PETA; etc, etc, etc.

[brb1006]

@Smackdxwn But its very offensive to use africans! Seriously do you have any idea what they did to use back in the 50's and 60's?

[alirolls]

@IconMatthew1 agreed. stupid move on their part.

4,000,000 pets are euthanized in our country each year. 25% of pets in shelters are purebred. Breeders' livelihoods come from, well, breeding. Care about dogs? Next time you want a pet, adopt. Never buy. After reading the stats (google "statistics about unwanted dogs in usa"), I think you will see why I am sympathetic to PETA's criticism of breeders & their questioning of the "purebred = better" message the AKC markets, even if I don't agree with PETA's use of the KKK image for shock value.
