Leave it to PETA (starring Jerry Mather!)to get upset that Batman had to defend himself from a bunch of killer trained Rotweillers. It's not like he was out in the alleys, hunting up dogs to kill for fun. What's he supposed to do? Pull out the old Bat Dog Repellent? This isn't Adam West's Batman.
Criminies. Don't the people at PETA have anything better to do, like harassing kids at school?
