Apparently the woman suspected of throwing a bag of flour on Kim Kardashian, carried out the vigilante powdering in protest of the fur industry, much like the agenda of animal activist organization PETA. According to The Daily Caller, "PETA denies that it had anything to do with the incident, but the
organization still wants a part in all the publicity."
And just how are they going to get that publicity? By offering to pay the flour-bomber's legal fees, should Kim "be so shortsighted as to go after this woman." They're making no qualms about the fact that it's a publicity stunt, though. Anything for the animals, right?
Ironically enough, Kim's sister, Khloe Odom, is a PETA supporter. Strike that, was. On Monday Khloe wrote, "I've been a vocal supporter of PETA for a long time, but I have also been very vocal about anti-bullying, so this was a huge disappointment for me. As you all know, I don’t condone violence and bullying and what happened last Thursday was just that. I am absolutely disgusted by their behavior ... Bullying and harassment is NEVER a solution, and I won't be a part of any organization that thinks otherwise." Now we're asking you to pick between Kim K and PETA. We know it isn't easy.

But PETA has a lesser-known claim to fame that has critics fuming: The organization euthanizes over 90 percent of the dogs and cats relinquished to its headquarters in Norfolk, Va. In 2009, PETA euthanized 2,301 dogs and cats -- 97 percent of those brought in -- and adopted only eight, according to Virginia state figures. And the rate of these killings has been increasing. From 2004 to 2008, euthanasia at PETA increased by 10 percent.
Who will flour bomb them on behalf of the animals?
Seriously though, PETA killed over 90% of the adoptive pets in their care in the last decade (well over 20,000). Sounds pretty hypocritical, no?

PETA = PEOPLE-EATING-TRAPPED or TRICKED-ANIMALS
I don't give a damn if someone doesn't like fur. They should protest peacefully. Not by chucking flour over them. I don't really agree with fur for fashion but I also do not agree with assaulting someone over it. I don't care how mild the assault was. It's a matter of principle. Stick to peaceful protests thank you very much.
PETA kills animals but at the same time condemn others for doing the same thing. Appalling double standards.
