Careers in the Conflict Industry
HSUS and the Making of a Conflict Industrialist

By FCUSA Executive Director Teresa Platt

IN APRIL OF 2001, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Tom Knudson of the Sacramento Bee wrote a ground-breaking five-part series analyzing the multi-billion-dollar conflict industry, and its impacts, both negative and positive, on science-based conservation efforts. Knudson’s series, entitled "Environment, Inc.",(1) has spurred calls for Congressional hearings and regulation of the US component of this multinational industry, which traffics in a continuous stream of conflict focusing on environmental or animal welfare issues.

Response costs include citizen misunderstanding of various production processes, myriad conflicting laws, "pollution" of the commons in the form of law-breaking "direct action" at organized, highly visible photo ops ("protests" and "convergences"), and even eco-terrorism, which the conflict industry refuses to condemn and even romanticizes. Currently, the industry operates with little regulation, no oversight, no codes of ethics or standards, and no commitment to funneling a percentage of the monies raised into legitimate hands-on conservation and humane work.

Unsurprisingly, many of the people who join this industry have backgrounds which are heavy on skills in public relations and the organizing of direct actions, and weak in the Earth or animal sciences. Lengthy arrest records are also commonplace.

A leader in the conflict industry stated in "Environment, Inc.", "As we become larger and more successful, I worry about the ethics of our movement. We need to think about self-regulation and standards. If not, the ones who make mistakes are going to hurt it for all of us."

An example of the relationship between the industry and its workers is demonstrated by the Humane Society of the United States’ (HSUS) recent hiring of John Paul "JP" Goodwin, previously of the Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade (CAFT).(2) Goodwin, who dropped out of high school to pursue protests, and stated, "My goal is the abolition of all animal agriculture", is now a full-fledged DC-based conflict industrialist.

Booming Business

According to "Environment, Inc.", the US-based conflict industry is estimated to generate over $3.2 billion in annual revenues. "Our business is booming," said Patrick Noonan, chairman of the Conservation Fund, which provides financial and educational assistance to conflict corporations. "This is a growth industry - a huge growth industry," added Daniel Beard, chief operating officer at the National Audubon Society. "There is a lot of wealth that has accumulated in this country over the last 20 years. And people are wanting to do good things with it."

With assets of almost $100 million, HSUS is among the wealthiest corporations in the industry.(3) In 1999, its revenues were a staggering $63 million, up from $17 million in 1990. Even Goodwin (whose CAFT reports annual revenue under $25,000) has railed against HSUS salaries, stating, "some people at HSUS make obscene amounts of money."(4)

Goodwin’s CAFT and HSUS have worked profitably in generating conflict in concert before. In response to pressure from CAFT/HSUS, a major clothing store allegedly caught selling fraudulently labeled products incorporating domesticated dog fur, donated at least $100,000 to an HSUS campaign to criminalize the unlikely sale of dog and cat fur.(5) After HSUS pocketed the check, CAFT kept the pressure on, pushing for the company to abandon all animal-based natural fibers and limit its product line to plant-based and synthetic clothing. Ironically, it appears that while Goodwin organized CAFT protests against this clothing company, he may also have been taking HSUS-sponsored junkets.

In an Apr. 30, 2000 email, Goodwin stated, "Over the last week I had the honor of being a part of the Texas China tour ... I represented HSUS on the tour."(6) In July of 2000, Goodwin announced CAFT was moving from Dallas, Texas to DC but that CAFT would remain in the family. Goodwin’s companion, Lydia Nichols, would become the "full time director of operations" for CAFT. HSUS never put out a formal press release on Goodwin’s hiring but in April 2001, it was official: "J.P. Goodwin of the Humane Society of the United States" gave a speech in New York on "Political Action for Animals".(7) In June 2001, Goodwin dropped the "J.P." from his name and used a new one: "JGoodwin@hsus.org (John Goodwin)".

Follower of Coronado School

According to an interview in the animal rights newsletter Animal People, Goodwin "grew up with the animal rights movement, dropping out of Germantown High School in Memphis in the 11th grade to focus on activism, doing janitorial work for a living because the flexible hours allowed him time to protest. When protests didn’t bring quick results, Goodwin took up direct action, influenced by convicted fur farm and laboratory arsonist Rod Coronado." Coronado is a believer in animal "liberation", stating, "There isn’t a hierarchy of life, but one in which all life is equal." His dream: "If ALF was to get an above-ground voice, a political lobby, that is the next challenge."(9)

Goodwin embraced Coronado’s philosophy with a vengeance, attacking the human animal and its property, often with juveniles in tow. In the early ’90s, he coordinated street theater in Tennessee(10) and issued succinct instructions: "If the feed barn, and processing barns are away from the animals, and downwind, then they could be burned down. Otherwise mink releases are the only way to go."(11)

Predictably, Goodwin was arrested multiple times in various states, culminating in his being charged as the alleged ringleader of a gang that vandalized fur stores. In April 1993, he and two juveniles pleaded guilty. Sentenced to three years in prison, they spent the next 30 months under house arrest, but the prison term was overturned for six months probation. Animal People reported, "By the time Goodwin completed the probation, he had already become - at 22 - a nationally recognized animal rights movement leader, forming CAFT and organizing anti-fur civil disobedience demonstrations throughout the South and Midwest." However, Goodwin’s tactics "seemed mainly to get lots of young activists arrested, photographed, fingerprinted, jailed, and fined."(12)

Animal People continued, "In 1996 - 1997 Goodwin gleefully announced a string of Animal Liberation Front (ALF) mink releases and arsons against furriers and fur farms." Goodwin acted as ALF spokesman for a Petaluma, California slaughterhouse arson in February 1997, and shocked the public with his comments on the March 1997 arson at a farmer’s feed co-op in Utah. "We’re ecstatic," said Goodwin of the fire that did almost a million dollars of damage and could have killed a caretaker family sleeping on the premises. "We have no problem with inanimate objects being destroyed so animate objects can survive," he continued. "We believe life is more valuable than property."(12)

In May 1997, ALF attacked a mink farm in Mt. Angel, Oregon, releasing and abandoning 10,000 farm-raised animals. Over 4,000, primarily kits not yet weaned from their mothers, died miserable deaths in the days following the attack, while the survivors were severely stressed by the experience. But Goodwin was unmoved by the carnage, and callously demanded body counts. "They claim thousands of minks have died," he said. "Let’s see thousands of bodies."(13) The farming family, police, reporters and insurance adjusters dutifully counted the bodies while Goodwin gave interviews and furthered his career.

Training Kids for a Living

As one of the "All-Star" speakers at the 1997 Animal Rights Conference in DC, Goodwin participated in panels on "Gaining public attention (Developing tactics to gain public attention for our cause without damaging our public image)" with Elliot Katz of In Defense of Animals and Ingrid Newkirk of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Goodwin discussed training the next generation of conflict industry workers with: "The intergenerational connection (Improving relations between student groups and the rest of the movement)".(14) He held "education and strategy training sessions" for young people, featuring Breaking Free!, a video glorifying crimes commited by ALF and the Earth Liberation Front.(15)

A pattern of juvenile arrests emerged at protests organized by Goodwin/CAFT and another conflict group, the Animal Defense League (ADL). Sometimes the juveniles were from out of state, sometimes the arrests were during school hours.(16) Goodwin praised the Straight Edge faction of young vegans, who turned intolerant and militant, for "breathing new life into the movement."(17) To thwart attempts at identification, Goodwin and his cohorts took to donning ski masks. Now you see them, now you don’t.

Peter Schnell of New Jersey was 17 when arrested in New York in 1998 at a Goodwin/CAFT/ADL protest. Matt Whyte of California was only 16 when arrested in 1999 at a protest in Seattle, during school hours on a school day. Goodwin, who was also present at that protest, told the Associated Press he did not know why Whyte was not in school. Hours later, three more out-of-state juveniles were arrested after they donned masks, climbed a tall fence at a nearby fur farm and vandalized animal pens, scattering the terrified mink. In January 2001, Goodwin/CAFT/ADL protégés Whyte, now 18, and Schnell, now 20, were arrested in the middle of the night behind the Capitola (California) City Hall with materials for making bombs.

 

Going Global

In the late ’90s, CAFT went global with its conflict product, hanging out website shingles in the UK and Sweden. CAFT-UK’s website states that the British arm was established to "regenerate the grass-roots campaign against the fur trade in Britain." It also brags of "pickets outside [shops] on a daily basis" along with "mass arrests", "smashed" windows and protests at shop owners’ homes.

"We have found that civil disobedience and direct action has been powerful in generating massive attention in our communities ... and has been very effective in traumatizing our targets," noted Goodwin.(19)

By 1998, at just 25 years old, Goodwin was describing himself as a "former member of ALF".(7) His busy schedule was filled with interviews, arrests, ALF p.r., addressing kids at conferences, protests, a presence in several countries and, in the summer of 1999, the filing of a lawsuit against CAFT under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act by a Philadelphia furrier tired of incessant protests and attacks on his property and staff.(20)

Despite all this effort, US retail fur sales hit $1.69 billion in 2000, up a whopping 54% from $1.1 billion in 1994, when Goodwin started CAFT.

Cleaning Up His Act

By August of 2000, Goodwin was trying to clean up his act, or at least his public image. Following the lead of other industry execs before him, he realized that society’s patience with his lawbreaking ways was running thin. "I do not plan to ever do civil disobedience again," he told Animal People. "I’m convinced that politics is the way to go, and to that end I am taking classes in political campaign management. Targeting bad lawmakers, and helping good lawmakers, is what I feel this movement has failed to do, miserably."

Now that he’s an established conflict industrialist backed by HSUS’s huge financial reserves of almost $100 million, Goodwin will be in a stronger position to realize two goals: Rodney Coronado’s dream of "an above-ground voice, a political lobby" for ALF, and his personal dream, "the abolition of all animal agriculture".(19)

And yes, the hard-working citizenry supports all this as "public benefit" with tax-free status and our law enforcement response costs. Tax-free conflict, tax-free trauma, HSUS and Goodwin, together, making a living in the conflict industry.

In the meantime, the Environment, Inc. juggernaut will continue charging forward without codes of ethics or standards, filling its pockets to the detriment of genuine conservation and humane work.

 

This guy is truly a cocksucker, communist/totalitarianist, prick! He is a true politician that has his own selfish agenda to advance himself politically just like every other politician at the expense of our freedoms and rights. He is also a communist/totalitarianist that would love for social activity to function under one controlled way of thinking. Someone that doesn't have a real job who has all the time in the world to fuck with hard working honest, tax paying, American citizens by lying to the public and manipulates them to think his ideas are what we want! This asshole is in a position of power that is very dangerous to our breed and dangerous to the American way of life with his communist way of thinking!

Fuck you J.P. Goodwin, you anti-American dickhead! All you are successful at is stripping Americans of our rights! You think you're out there doing some good for your country when in reality you are a very serious threat to our freedom and civil rights! I've told you this once before and i'll say it again, if you would take all your ambition and energy and use towards some other issues that we have in this country (pick one, there are thousands) than your work would truly be amazing and respected! Too bad for us Americans you're a communist/totalitarianist!

If this POS continues to pursue his dream of abolishing all animal agriculture, he will undoubtedly cross individuals/organizations with much deeper pockets and higher political connections than his own, and he will be dealt with accordingly.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

Hopefully this happens sooner than later.<o:p></o:p>

 

Something else about Mr J.P> Goodwin is that he has a felony on his record. He cannot be around a firearm at all due to his record. It might not be too hard to see that he gets a felony violation which would send him to the big house for a long time. A few years with BUbba might just do him a world of good.

 

Here is another good article about Goodwin and the HSUS, from this web site:

From August 27, 2004 articles (posted in 2 parts due to length)

<CENTER>What IS The Humane Society of the United States?</CENTER>


I was rather amazed at the number of people who wrote to me about my opinions regarding the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) when I did my last few articles. Then again, maybe I shouldn't be. Before about two weeks ago, I myself was rather ignorant as to the real goals of HSUS, and where their, (actually your) money goes. As I always do though, I decided to edumacate myself about them.

I also conducted a poll of 100 average people. Just the average Joe in the street. 94% of the people thought HSUS ran the local shelters in their community. 4% knew about their other programs and the remaining 2% had no idea who they were. Of the 94% all said they would donate to HSUS based on what they knew about them. I'm betting HSUS is banking, literally, on these types of individuals.

I also went online and found some rather interesting, at times quite scary, information on several web sites. I would have interviewed a HSUS representative, but after last week's newsletter, I got an email from one that was little more than hate mail and very offensive!


Founders

Coleman Burke, then president of the American Bible Society, Cleveland Amory and Helen Jones, founded HSUS in 1954. As far as I have been able to tell, Mr. Burke served as their President until 1970 when John Hoyt, a Presbyterian minister, took over as President and CEO until 1996.

Until just a few months ago, the President and CEO was Paul Irwin, a Methodist minister. The current CEO and President is Wayne Pacelle who admittedly has had ties with some radical (and I mean radical) animal rights groups in the past.

Now, is it important I mention the religious background? Maybe and maybe not. What I noticed though is the organization, at least to me, has an evangelical feel. Is this a bad thing? No. I don't see why unless you are running the finances in a manner similar to Jim and Tammie Faye Baker! That sure is the way it looks to me.


Officers and Directors

HSUS is an organization with their primary focus being animals. As I reviewed the names and titles of the Board Officers and Directors, I found it curious they had no DVM's (vets) on either. They have three MDs', three PhDs' and six attorneys. Am I the only one that finds this odd? Plenty of lawyers, but no vet. Hmmm… Maybe it's just a typo.


Comparative Financial Operations Report

When I conducted my interview with Kathy Bauch a few weeks ago, she refused to answer any questions regarding HSUS' finances for a “newsletter.” She did offer to send me their 2003 financials though. This is what they send whenever someone has questions about their finances. As I mentioned last week, if it was similar to what they have online, it would be vague and difficult to decipher. What I got was much more.

What I received is their 2003 Annual Report. It is a twenty-one page “report” that was obviously very expensive to print. Tucked way in the back is exactly what I expected. A vague and difficult to read one page financial report. The rest appears to me to be a very expensive sales letter and nothing more, complete with a postage paid envelope to send in your donation.

Now you might say, “So what? They have to promote themselves.” I agree. However, this publication has six pages of calendar quality photos of nothing but animals. Two and a half pages of self-glorifying articles from HSUS staff, none of which was necessary. How much donor money could have been saved by deleting this junk from the thousands and thousands of these reports they printed?

According to the Comparative Financial Operations Report for 2003, the HSUS has $116,205,882.00 in total liability and net assets. Over $5,000,000 of that is in cash and cash equivalents, and another nearly five and a half million in receivables. They also have nearly $93,000,000 in market value investments. Not too bad.

In 2003, in revenue, additions and transfers, HSUS made $76,923,670. Of that amount, sheltering programs received $10,551,527 and it was shared with animal habitat and wildlife programs. Now, assuming it was an even split, sheltering programs received $3,517,175.66

Now that's a lot of money, but not when you consider a good sized shelter can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to run, three million is really a drop in the bucket. They spent $21,145,769.00 in fundraising and membership development. Six times what they put into their shelter programs, which is what most people I talked to think HSUS does with the money donated to them.


Providing Help or Selling It

I'm not sure what they spent the money on for their shelter programs, but I will assure you they didn't fund any shelters. In fact, they charge shelters and Animal Control offices for their assistance and instructional material. I have been able to find little and or nothing HSUS doesn't charge for when it comes to helping a shelter and their educational programs.

For instance, lets say you or your town runs an animal shelter that is struggling for one reason or another, which most are, HSUS is ready to come in and help. For between $4000.00 and $20,000.00 they will send their experts to your shelter through their Animal Services Consultation Program. The fee depends on the size of the agency and the complexity of its programs, charged on a sliding scale based on your agency's resources. In other words, the more you have, the more they'll take.


Youth Programs

Now, lets go back to our youth. You're in middle or high school and want to start a club to promote rescue and do things to help companion animals. HSUS can help you with that, too. Just go to humaneteen.org. There you can buy a package full of all kinds of propaganda and learn to be a full-fledged animal activist. They will sell your child a club starter kit for $22.00 and then give activity suggestions like their “Fight Fur” program.

Here they encourage kids to make flyers and hand them out in front of businesses to protest against shoppers buying fur. HSUS will also give your child cards to distribute at such events. They'll show your child pictures of dead animals in traps and direct them to other sites where they can see pictures of hunters beating seals over the head.

They will also promote vegen/vegetarian lifestyles to your child. Just go to the message board for kids and you can read how many of the kids are distressed, after reading the material HSUS SOLD them, because their parents will not let them go vegen. You will also see posts promoting PETA!

Now I want to be fair here. They do have some decent material that is age appropriate and educational in nature. I think it's overpriced; for instance, your child can rent a video to show their class for $25.00, but some of it is good material. However, there is little promoting appropriate training, grooming or responsible ownership of companion animals. It seems to me the whole focus is turning our children into activists, vegens and extremists.

Now if I want my child to be a vegen, or an activist, I will make that decision and not HSUS. Our kids have enough on their plate without having to be weighed down with this information or agenda. Additionally, kids are kids and don't always make appropriate decisions. When dealing with complex issues like activism and protesting, it would be easy for them to get into trouble or hurt. Doesn't PETA target children too?

Here's the rest of the article posted above:

Ethical Financial Practices



Let's get back to the money:

Former President John Hoyt once instructed his members on becoming more humane: “We begin, I suggest, by living more simply, more sparingly.” Let's see how he did. He made around $200,000.00 in the late 1980's running HSUS. In 1986, HSUS bought his house in Maryland for $310,000 and allowed him and his family to live there, free of rent, until 1992. When he retired as CEO, HSUS gave him a $1,000,000.00 bonus.

Paul Irwin, another former President, while making $300,000.00 from HSUS, was given an $85,000.00 interest free loan to renovate his cabin in Maine. The cabin was held in trust by HSUS, however his family continued to use it until he died. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Makes me wonder.


Guilty by Association

Let's look at some of HSUS' associations:

In April of 2000 HSUS sent J.P. Goodwin as its emissary on an anti-fur mission to China. Goodwin is not just any animal rights zealot, he was an avowed member of Animal Liberation Front (ALF), a group once called one of the biggest domestic terrorist organizations by the FBI. He had been convicted for vandalism of several fur retailers and their property. Less than a year later, he was formerly identified as a HSUS legislative staff member.

If you don't know about ALF you should check them out. They truly scare the heck out of me. They are, in my opinion, every bit as much a threat to people as Al Quiada. I cannot believe HSUS would hire such a person. When asked questions about an arson fire at a slaughter house in Petaluma, California, and a Utah feed co-op that nearly killed a family, Goodwin stated, “We're ecstatic!”


Then, there is the PETA connection ...

HSUS has repeatedly hired PETA employees in their organization. Their head of investigations, several investigators, a computer programmer, just to name a few. Sorry folks, my opinion is, once a terrorist, always a terrorist. When HSUS hires these people, they appear to support the crimes these individuals may have been involved in.

In 2003, HSUS VP Martin Stephens was asked to recommend three people to serve on an EPA “pollution prevention and toxics” panel. Two of his three choices were PETA employees.


All Talk and No Action

While HSUS will admit they don't run or fund any shelters, you usually find it at the bottom of the page or tucked away somewhere near the end of a statement. As I mentioned before, they don't put their money where their mouth is. Get this …

In 1995, when the Washington DC animal shelter was going to have to close due to a budget shortfall, HSUS (based in DC) offered to build and operate a DC shelter at its own expense to serve as a national model. There were, of course, conditions.

HSUS wanted the city to give it 3-5 acres of land and tax exempt status for all of its real estate holdings in the District of Columbia. (Remember, they buy some executives homes to live in among other property holdings.)

The DC government offered a long-term lease but HSUS refused to proceed unless it would “own absolutely” the land. The district declined, and the only HSUS funded animal shelter never materialized.

HSUS, who makes and has enough money to fund a shelter in every state, as well as subsidize spay/neuter programs, declined to help the dogs in its own back yard. Why? Money is all I can think of. Perhaps they were afraid they would soil their Armani suits by actually working with a dog.


The New CEO

Rather than go on a tirade about the new President and CEO of HSUS, I have put some quotes from him below. Read them, and you decide.

"I think they wanted the aggressive approach," he says. "They wanted someone who was going to think things up. And they got him." June 2004, Washington Post when asked about his selection as CEO.

“We have no problem with the extinction of domestic animals. They are creations of human selective breeding." Quoted in Animal People, May, 1993


Overview

I could go on for days about HSUS, but I will stop here. In my opinion, they are little more than an organization whose main agenda is filling the coffers and pushing an extremist agenda through misinformation and exploitation. Again, my opinion, they have done nothing but profit from the contributions of people who don't know any better. I have tried to see it otherwise, I simply can't.

I highly recommend you go to activistcash.com and see what they have there about HSUS and their connection with PETA. There are several other sites I found interesting, as well as many stories about HSUS in the archive of the Washington Post.

Would I give anything to the Humane Society of the United States? Yes I would. A pooper-scooper, they can use to go clean my yard. At least then we would know they actually have done something for a dog this year.

This is a great post!! I am kinda dumb on this type of subject, and I learn allot from this kind of a post. Thnx RS. for starting it.

 

It would be nice to have a way of tracking this bastard! Know where he is at all times. Where is his main office? What limo service does he use? Where does he live? Who are his relatives? Where do they live? Is he allergic to anything? Does he participate in hobbies/activities on a regular basis? If so, where?

I hate JP "Adolf Hitler" Goodwin like I hate no other man.

 

From what I have gathered so far John Paul Goodwin (35) lives in Fairfax, VA and might have a home in Memphis TN. His family is in Dallas, TX.

John Paul Goodwin's CAFT U.S. Office, P.O. Box 21780, Washington, DC 20009, USA. Tel: +1-202-328-0736
