Sex, Violence, and Animal Rights: Part 2

Today, the world has turned upside down.  What is good is called evil and what is evil is called good.   I have previously written about the many violent criminals and just plain lunatics who are now "animal cops" heading up various animal rescues and shelters.  I've written about urban vigilante and private Rambo Richard Couto who targets poor farmers.   I've written about quacks such as Ohio's Adam Herrera who stirred up a public firestorm over a fake story of dead skinned puppies.  I've written many times about serial dirtbag Scotlund Haisley who operates a private SWAT team because being in the "animal protection field" gets him better lap dances from strippers.   In part 1 of this continuing series, I covered more of the criminal backgrounds of many leaders in the animal rights movement who spoke at this year's Animal Rights Conference. 

Part of the problem is that almost all of the training local, state and federal law enforcement receives is conducted by animal rights extremists.  Almost no training is conducted by actual animal experts.   Particularly egregious are the law enforcement seminars that the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) gives for free to law enforcement nationwide.   This free training is conducted by fringe lunatics.   Sex perverts and convicted felons have infiltrated the National Sheriff’s Association and are now providing the majority of training that law enforcement receives on farming, zoo’s and pet owners.   Local animal control training is even worse.   While many localities take advantage of free training by HSUS and PETA, even more lunatics jump aboard in localities.   In 2013, the Virginia Animal Control Association offered law enforcement four hours of training on animal sex.  The 'certified expert witness' who taught the animal sex class has a degree in Business and Accounting, not veterinary medicine.

"As another part of their training, HSUS is offering to educate officers on animal fighting.   I wonder, does the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department even know that the HSUS “animal fighting expert” John Goodwin is not only a five time convicted criminal, a former member of the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), an FBI certified domestic terrorist organization, but also he was completely discredited in a Wisconsin court in2007."

While the animal rescue field is awash in legions of criminals who have jumped on the 'cute puppy or kitten' bandwagon to con you into opening your wallets, an even more dangerous criminal has infiltrated, that of the sex pervert.  One of the biggest exposes came by accident when reporter John Stossel, then working for ABC's 20/20 program in 2005, ran an expose on celebrated animal cop Dave Garcia of the SPCA of Texas and other out of control SPCA's across America who were stealing animals for profit. 

“[S]ome people who've had animals taken away by animal rescuers say SPCAs have acted like petty tyrants on power trips who use their police powers to steal people's animals. You counter with the statement that "[t]he SPCA of Texas has no police powers nor does it conduct or condone the "stealing" of people's pets." The Texas legislature, however, has imbued the Texas SPCAs with the power to raid people's property, remove their animals and terminate their ownership rights, when approved by the courts and exercised in conjunction with police officers.” John Stossel

When Stossel ran with his story on Garcia illegally raiding the homes of women to steal their dogs from them and frame them for charges of animal cruelty, even he had no idea the time that Garcia was  a convicted rapist.    Garcia served three years in prison in Arizona for kidnapping and raping a woman.   He also had drunk driving arrests in Arizona, Texas, and Missouri and an outstanding warrant at the time of the broadcast.    Garcia had a long history of working in the animal rescue field.  He worked for the Houston SPCA, the Humane Society of Greater Miami, the Humane Society of Missouri and the Denver Dumb Friends League.  Even more frightening, this convicted rapist was a "guest instructor" at the National Cruelty Investigators School. 

Even more famous is the scandal that hit the Louisville, Kentucky animal shelter in 2009.  Louisville Metro Animal Services head Giles Meloche was forced to resign after his sordid history became public.   From losing his medical license in his native Canada after he pled guilty to 27 counts of selling anabolic steroids without a license to massive sexual assault complaints filed against him.   He was replaced by Wayne Zelinsky who lasted just 14 months when it was discovered that he owned and operated a porn business. 

Then there's the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) alumni Arthur E. Benjamin who was sued by the federal government for fraud and sued multiple times for raping women.   According to these lawsuits, Benjamin has a 20 year history of sexual assault.    Then there is former HSUS Vice President accused pedophile and convicted felon with mob connections David Wills.

Wills, whose criminal convictions date back to 1973, was formerly the head of the Nashua Humane Society in New Hampshire, leaving in 1978 just before money was discovered missing from their books.   He resurfaced at the Michigan Humane Society and worked there until 1989, resigning suddenly when the board started an investigation into $1.6 million in missing money.   He surfaced again at HSUS and worked there until he was sued in 1995 for sexually harassing multiple female employees.    The law finally started catching up to him once again when he was arrested in Maryland and pled guilty in 1999 for embezzling money.   Since 2015, Wills has been fighting federal sex trafficking charges for his alleged long term sexual assaults of a 9-year old girl. 

"Wills and Losoya are both accused of sexually assaulting a 9-year-old girl in Brownsville, starting in 2012. When Wills moved to Rockport, the indictment states, Losoya would visit him with the girl so he could continue sexually assaulting her for money."

Besides assaulting the little girl himself, Wills is also accused of forcing her to work as a prostitute.  Wills ties to HSUS continue today.  He is a close friend of current HSUS CEO Wayne Pacelle, who recruited Pacelle to join HSUS in 1994.

"Maria Candelaria Losoya,  55,  of Brownsville,  Texas,  co-defendant with former Michigan Humane Society president and Humane Society of the U.S. vice president for investigations David Wills,  has pleaded guilty to one federal count of trafficking a minor for sexual purposes,  acting U.S. Attorney Abe Martinez announced on August 2,  2017."

Lasoya pled guilty to selling her nine year old daughter to David Wills for sex while at the same time he wrote and released a self-aggrandizing book on his 'career' in the animal rescue world.   As for Wills, he's currently out of jail, released on a $5 million dollar bail.    Let that fact sink in the next time you are tempted to open your wallet at some sob story an animal rescue is promoting.  Think of a man who worked his entire life in various humane societies amassing enough money to pay a $5 million dollar bond. 

In Illinois anti-puppy activist Kathy Mehalko routinely slanders pet stores and claims they are all fronts for deplorable puppy mills raising dogs in horrific conditions.   In 2016, an Illinois pet store had enough and sued her for defamation.   Mehalko, using typical activist tactics, posted a picture of a dog kennel on social media and then claimed this kennel was the source of the puppies sold by Furry Babies of Illinois.  The pet store owner sued claiming they had never bought a dog from the kennel posted on social media by Mehalko. 

“In its suit, Furry Babies took umbrage with comments such as, “While their puppies are in the Furry Babies store cribs, their parents remain in small filthy cages with no socializing, no room for playing, no vet care, no grooming and sometimes even no food or water!” Furry Babies said the comments, which included photos of puppies in crates or dogs behind chain link, are false.”

In  August of 2017, Mehalko's 38 year old son Jason was arrested for criminal sexual assault of a child going back to 2008.  He was arrested by the Winnebago County Sheriff's Department in Illinois for charges out of  Kenosha, Wisconsin.    He was released on a $25,000 bond pending trial and is barred from having any contact with any female under the age of 18.

Shocking no one who has interacted with Mehalko, she immediately posted that she was proud of her son.  

The cases listed here are just the tip of the iceberg.    Sadists, felons and rapists have discovered that the quickest way to get to your child, your sister, your girlfriend or your wife is through images of sad eyed puppies and kittens.  

Sex, Violence, and Animal Rights

In the eight months since President Trump entered the White House the radical left has engulfed America in one long protest after another.   Like a two year old melting down in an epic temper tantrum, the left is unable to grasp the fact that they lost the 2016 elections.   From Pussy Marches, to accusations of Russia hiding behind every door, panic stories about Junior Zippersuit over in North Korea; to black shirted Antifa protesters attacking inert stone statutes and conservative speakers, the left seems determined to sink America into a second civil war.    These mask wearing street brawlers are attacking American citizens with clubs, baseball bats, knives, bricks, urine, feces, mace, and bottles filled with concrete and rocks.

After all, everyone knows the best way to make your point about racism is to throw bottles of urine at people.   Right?   Boston has the right start, publicly name and shame every single one of these violent extremists.   Portland and other cities should follow Boston’s example. 

“Portland, Oregon Police Chief Michael Marshman revealed on Friday that riot cops forced Antifa protesters out of local parks during a Jun. 4 protest after the anti-fascist group began launching balloons filled with feces, urine and chemicals at law enforcement.”

In San Francisco residents are outraged that some American’s have been granted a permit to pray in public.   To protest against this horrific activity they threatened to layer a public beach in dog poop and celebrate with a parade of drag queens.   Nothing says ‘save the earth’ like deliberately infecting a beach with feces while perverts dance in the streets.   Meanwhile city authorities degenerating into a hysterical quivering mass at the thought of mass prayer have asked law enforcement to deploy every available cop in the city and leftist propaganda masters like The Southern Poverty Law Center are screaming that a permit for public prayer will attract ‘hate groups.’    Don’t worry, San Francisco police are promising “over-whelming” force at this rally. 

“Hundreds of San Franciscans plan to prepare Crissy Field, the picturesque beach in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge where rightwing protest group Patriot Prayer will gather, with a generous carpeting of excrement.”

Violence from the left is nothing new.   You need look no further than at the violent extremists from the environmental and animal rights movement that the mainstream media has constantly white washed.    In the past 40 years, animal rights activists have stolen dead bodies and held them hostage, murdered animals and framed their owners for false charges of animal abuse, stolen little girl's dogs and killed them, burglarized and vandalized homes, conducted cyber-attacks, liberated and murdered tens of thousands of animals, fire bombed research labs, and on the list of crimes goes.  

Yet in 2017 just like their fellow alt-left Antifa cousins, animal rights activists are now saying their past crimes are not enough!   At this year's annual Animal Rights Conference attendees were repeatedly encouraged to commit more violent crimes.   This year’s conference was a who’s who of convicted criminals and violence supporting agitators hosted by the Farm Animal Rights Movement, Compassion over Killing, Mercy for Animals and the dog killers of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).   Joining in the fun were the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act violators of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), and other offshoots all gathered together to discuss their campaigns to rid America of hamburgers and the farmers who produce them, household pets, and fun family entertainment like zoos. 

“Activists in attendance were encouraged to be as extreme as possible to advance their goals, including breaking the law when necessary.  Attendees were also told to pressure restaurants, retail and foodservice brands to adopt certain policies with the end goal of forcing them to stop selling animal products.”

During the conference, these agitators made it crystal clear that their targets are all American farms.   For the first time activists openly boasted that organic farms and free-range farms are now all open targets for destruction.   Every animal business is a target to be shut down.   Every zoo, every pet breeder, every research lab.  They are all targets until these fanatics get their way and remove all animals from human lives and to achieve their goal of ‘total animal liberation.’  

“Jeffrey Cohan, Jewish Veg, stated that “we know animal agriculture is the leading cause of pollution on our planet.” Lisa Kemmerer, author, Sister Species and Eating Earth, said “eating hamburgers is like driving a bulldozer over the rainforest” and “being an environmentalist who is not vegan is nonsense on stilts.”

Another conference speaker was convicted criminal Nick Cooney, founder of The Humane League, a conference sponsor, who in the past threatened to kill the children of a drug company’s employees.   At last year’s conference, one of his employees stated, “When it is time to launch the campaign, find a vulnerable target, prepare everything for at least a few weeks and then assemble an overwhelming force to utilize from day one. The crueler it is, the quicker the fight is over.””   If anything Cooney and company are tame compared to fellow speaker and former PETA alumnae Bruce Friedrich, who has remarked that “blowing things up and smashing windows” is “a great way to bring about animal liberation.”

“Krista Hiddema, Mercy for Animals (Canada), hinted at no animal products being sold as the end goal, stating “we’re never going away.” Hiddema also stated that “we [the animal rights movement] are winning against the largest organizations in the world,” and “they are terrified of us.”

 “Breaking the law can often be a good thing to do,” said Zach Groff with the Animal Liberation Collective. He talked about “confrontational activism” such protests, vigils and open animal rescues from farms without permission. “This is a type of activism that can often upset people, it can rile people up.” 

At last year’s conference, Groff advocated, ““All of these events [agricultural fairs, eating contests, political rallies] need to be interrupted and shut down.” – Zach Groff of Direct Action Everywhere (a group that has seen run-ins with the Secret Service).”    Another one of the players at the conference was a front group calling itself the Beagle Freedom Project (BFP) run by convicted felon Kevin Kjonass aka Kevin Chase who has bamboozled the daughter-in-law of President Trump.   Lara Trump, wife of Eric, appeared via video at a fundraiser for this felon shocking everyone since HSUS’s legislative arm spent $200,000 attacking President Trump.    These extremists think they’ve trumped Trump by co-opting his daughter-in-law. 

“Kjonaas got a six-year sentence in federal prison for a sustained campaign terrorizing employees of a medical research company.  BFP’s president, meanwhile, has also produced a propaganda film trying to boost the reputation of an FBI-designed terrorist group, the Animal Liberation Front.   The FBI has estimated that the Animal Liberation Front and associated groups are behind 1,100 criminal acts causing over $100 million in damage.”

You can look no further than the plight of a small business owner in Berkeley, California who had to deal with terrorists from the newly reincarnated Animal Liberation Front, now calling themselves “Direct Action Everywhere” picketing his shop for four months in a row.

“The animal rights group, Direct Action Everywhere, held protests in front of the Local Butcher Shop in Berkeley, Calif., for four months. The Washington Post reports that protesters would be “dripping with fake blood, tightly bound in plastic wrap as if they were cuts of meat. Singing, shouting, lecturing customers.””

 Local law enforcement did nothing to protect this small business owner from a sustained terrorist attack, ultimately forcing the shop owner to give in to the extremist’s demands.  Just as was shown in the recent Charlottesville, Virginia protests, law enforcement today routinely stands by and allows these violent thugs to get away with destroying American lives. 

In Part 2 of this continuing series I will uncover the sordid history of rapists and pedophiles that fill the upper leadership of animal rights organizations and your local rescues and animal shelters.
