Good news for peta members - davetclown - 09-23-2002
The local news broadcast here in Michigan this morning announces that...
That the federal government has decided to audit PETA’s 13 million dollar annual fund raising programs in the light that PETA has been hiring eco-terrorist to perform assaults on business and individuals in the U.S.
Being that they are a not for profit organization (not charitable) they are not allowed to conduct activities that promote violence or pay for violent demonstrations.
According to the federal government this is not what the not for profit charter tax protection charter is designed for.
If evidence can be found the U.S. Government is going to pull their not for profit status therefore causing any donations contrived by this organization can no longer be used as a tax right off for individuals and corporations that donate to PETA. Any such donations to such an organization in the future will be perceived as contributing to terrorist activity and will those who donate will be prosecuted in accordance to the contributing to terrorist statute.
So PETA, have a nice day [sly]
