        This comment chain is you defending PETA having high euthanasia statistics due to euthanizing animals they had taken from families yards and from homeless individuals. You had suggested that these euthanasias were mercy killings, and when another commenter pointed out that pets can’t be considered suffering even under the loosest definition of the word, you posed a rhetorical question in bad faith. If you actually wanted to argue that PETA’s euthanasias are only done in situations of suffering animals, you would have just said that and perhaps included a source for that claim like the initial commenter did for theirs.

          What percentage of euthanasia is from kidnapped pets and not sick and dying animals?

            If you want to make the claim that PETA’s behavior to people’s pets is insignificant in the grand scheme of things, the burden of proof is on you.

              I haven’t made any claims, i am just asking for the factual information regarding other people’s claims.

                You are the only one who has said anything related to sick animals.

                  What does the term euthanize mean? What are the numbers of euthanasia reported by PETA and what percentage of those are not sick and dying animals?
