I think it is sad that PETA tries to defend their position of
kill-shelters by attacking the concept of no kill-shelters. They are
posing a false dilemma. We can develop friendly no kill shelters where
the animals get company by other animals and where they get much
attention and love, and where they have good living conditions. Violence
is never the solution. We don't have the right to use violence towards
other beings. [See the links at the bottom of this article:

With their
budget, they could save and treat the animals that they kill. But
instead they choose to focus their energy on sexist campaigns, on "happy
exploitation"-campaigns, on counterproductive "single issue"-campaigns,
on killing dogs and cats, etc.
I am sure that PETA-people
are doing the best according to their understanding and they do some
good things -just like all people. Having said this, I think it is
important that we don't link to them and endorse them, because that will
confuse people, increase the popularity of PETA's counter productive
campaigns and may result in that they get more donations. One article
about PETA's counter productive, "happy exploitation"-campaigns:
