Has PETA Lost Their Minds?

by Bill Simon

GURNEE, Ill. (AP) – People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants Six Flags Great America to scrap its Halloween-themed cockroach-eating promotion.

A spokeswoman for the animal rights organization says the contest at the amusement park’s FrightFest is “gratuitously cruel.”

    It’s PETA.

    Ohhhhh yeahhhh…I forgot.

    Geez, what I want to know is who would want to eat cockroaches? I’d run away from that contest as fast as I could!

  4. John Konop Says:

    Guys, PETA should be all over this. They are always talking about how if we ate veggies and grains only the world would have more food.

    Cockroaches are “nutritious, high in protein and fat free”.And we all know anyone could find enough cockroaches to eat. This would solve the world hunger problem and a great diet solution!

  5. Bill Simon Says:

    But, John, cockroaches are neither veggies nor grains…

  6. John Konop Says:

    Bill,

    Now you sound like the PETA guys!!!

    As the Rolling Stones song goes, “you can’t always get what you want, but if you try somtimes you what you need”

  7. John Konop Says:

    Sorry,

    “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need”

  8. Josh Says:

    John,
    I heard an interview one time with a PETA person. They were asked what they would do if they found a cockroach in their home. They stated that they would take it outside and set it free.

  9. John Konop Says:

    Josh,

    If you had this information you could of called in and taken care of world hunger.I only hope you are given one more chance !!!!!

  10. Josh Says:

    John,
    LOL

  11. Kevin Bailey Says:

    Hey if I eat a roach would the PETA crowd not back me but on the lighter side I could send a message to the other roaches mess with Kevin and I will eat you. Chase it down with the ants and it would be a healthy meal.

  12. bill Says:

    What about all the hormones in the roach juice caused from eating scraps off the floor in the corndog stand?

  13. John Konop Says:

    bill,

    You make a very good point !!! The key is getting the roaches in a good fitness center !!! Nothing like fit and trim roaches!!! That is why we need to bring back roach races. I wonder if PETA has a problem with that ?

  14. John Konop Says:

    I just do not like 13

  15. bill Says:

    How about a “free range” roach farm right next to PETA HQ?
    P.A.R.M. People against roach motels.
