People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) said they are against a California shelter's decision to screen potential adoptees based on their gun control opinions.
"If you hesitate, because your core belief is that you believe teachers need to carry firearms, then you will not get approved to adopt from us," the shelter continued. "If you foster for us and believe in guns, please bring our dogs and/or cats back, or we will arrange to have them picked up." People who lie about being members of the National Rifle Association (NRA) will be potentially be sued for fraud, the shelter further warned.
Catie Cryar, the assistant manager of PETA, told Fox News Digital that they have known the shelter "to do good work and are sure they have the best intentions, but from PETA’s perspective, because there is a homeless animal crisis, what counts is that adopted animals are treated well and cared for and that is the criteria we feel is important."
