Will PETA ever cross the line in bad boy and girl behavior? Throwing dead animals on Anna Wintour’s plate seems crass but forgiveable, in a “most of us can appreciate the moment” sort of wry smile.

Greeting Happy Fries kids with a knife-wielding Ronald McDonald and a bloody rubber chicken will surely cause a few bad dreams and confused, bad-child guilt, thanks to PETA’s “McCruelty Campaign”.

PETA’s strategy has always been one of confronting the truth about the connection between food and the animals ending up on our dinner plates — or the Chicken McCruelty box, as PETA calls it.

Growing numbers of  nonvegetarians agree that people have a responsibility to treat animals ethically. America’s “hear no evil, see no evil” attitudes seem to be causing irreparable and unnecessary harm on multiple fronts.
