Adam and Eve Protest McDonald's Sinful Ways

Adam and Eve speak out for chickens in their first-ever protest in behalf of animals.

You didn't think we meant the couple from the Garden of Eden, did you? Naw. Another young pair, who just happen to be named Adam and Eve, joined other caring individuals in Orlando to school residents about ~~McCruelty~~ McDonald's. The fast-food giant refuses to improve conditions for millions of chickens, many of whom suffer broken bones or die in vats of scalding-hot water—while they are still conscious—on their way to becoming McNuggets.

One passerby had picked up a copy of our "Vegetarian Starter Kit" earlier in the day. The double-whammy of print and protest made an impact—he mentioned his eagerness to explore vegetarianism.

To Zachery.. taken it too far? You need to watch a video on chickens being brutally killed for food then maybe you'll think twice.

Zachery what are you talking about 'they have gone to far'? They are merely presenting the truth just because this barbaric treatment of animals goes on behind closed doors does not make it any less true. Nowhere do any of the banners say 'Go Vegan' or am I McMissin somethin???

Zachery I don't think this blog is trying to make anyone become vegan. They stated that McDonald's refuses to make better conditions for the chickens and then basically torture them more. I am not really opposed to people eating meat and such. I am vegetarian BUT I think that animals could be treated humanely and killed humanely before they are slaughtered or killed. I agree that PETA often does beat people over the head with the whole vegan thing. Not everyone wants to be a vegan and some vegetarian's like myself are satisfied with giving up meat. But isn't this PETA's job? If you don't agree ok. But don't expect PETA to not do what they say they are gonna do. Of course they disagree with any type of animal killing torture etc. So of course they would want people to be vegan. I'm not saying it's right. I'm not saying it's wrong.

The McCruelty campaign is long overdue good job PETA. People need to realize the cruelty involved with a fast food meal.

I think Mc donalds is very cruel to animals how would you like someone to do the same to you. Animals have feelings just like we do. think about it and remember God don't like ugly. So be careful how you treat God's living animals and people.

I'm not ashamed to be a penitent Judeo Christian. When the world was idyllic humans were vegetarian Genesis 129. After mans fall into corruption murder homicide animal genocide and wildlife massacre transpired and continues to perpetuate as we descend into an evil journey into perdition.

Many thanks to Adam Eve for taking a stand against McDonalds! It's truly sickening and disgraceful that the fast food giant can get away with this. They won't see a dime from me or my family ever again!

Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights? Read more.
