PETA Cozies Up with Kids … and Kid Killers?!

peta_stencil.jpg

PETA recently launched PETA Kids in an attempt to make the volatile group more kid-friendly. The site is loaded with fun little ways to propagandize the usual message, like stencils to decorate the nearest public loo with images of animals begging “love me” – yes, like a psychotic ex.

PETA is also promoting Fast Food Nation and Happy Feet, which happens to be in bed with Tamiflu, which, by the way, is now linked to sometimes fatal but generally psychotic behavior among kids.

Clearly PETA has not done its homework about children the way it has with pigs, puppies and penguins. Want to cozy up to kids? Liaise with companies that aren’t already liaising with companies that happen to be compelling your target demographic to fling themselves off condo balconies. Isn’t that, like, common knowledge? – Contributed by Angela Natividad
