How NOT to garner support for your cause.

Steal little childrens pets.

"SPOKANE, Wash. - A pet rabbit named Sugar Bunny was stolen from a preschool and fliers protesting circus animal acts were left in its empty cage...

Daphna Nachminovitch, director of PETA’s domestic animal department, said the group would not endorse stealing a pet bunny.

“Just like dogs and cats, (rabbits) have been domesticated, so we encourage people who have the knowledge and ability to adopt rabbits from their local shelters,” Nachminovitch said."

Sure. Just like they don't endorse euthanizing animals and dumping them instead of adopting them out. Just like they don't financially support arsonists.

So these "activists" have succeeded in turning dozens of parents and children against them. Congrats.
