When the no-kill shelter in Shelby County, Kentucky recently announced that they had run out of space -- and were hence going to have to start killing healthy dogs and cats -- officials received a nice basket of gourmet cookies, with a note signed from PETA: "Thank you for doing the right thing."

"Screw PETA," quoth Jennifer Lawrence, the actress of the moment. Although clearly a young woman with genuine courage, I suspect she is not quite prepared for the way she will probably be terrorized by the group in the months to come.

Nathan Winograd's No Kill program is the best thing to happen to the world's domesticated animals in my time.
