Props To These Animal Rights Protestors For Coming Up With The Scariest Mascot Of All Time, "Abby The Abused Chicken"

(Source) Abby the abused chicken is seven feet tall, complete with gory details that paint a larger-than-life picture about animal abuse.

Mercy for Animals, a national animal advocacy organization, staged a lunchtime protest for an hour. Solemn volunteers stood on the corner, brandishing graphic signs with pictures of abused chickens.

In August, McDonald’s and its supplier Tyson Foods cut ties with a chicken farmer in Tennessee after Mercy for Animals released a video taken with a hidden camera that the group said showed abusive practices at the farm. In September, McDonald’s announced that it would fully transition to cage-free eggs for its restaurants over the next 10 years. The advocacy group continues to press for changes in animal welfare policies in food supply chains.

Now this is how you protest people. Fuck all the Mizzou and Yale protestors standing on a quad. You want to make a difference in the world, you want to bring change to this country, you create a 7 foot mascot that makes me want to vomit. This is like that Pelican mascot from a few years ago.

Only if that Pelican mascot was dipped into acid and had half its body torn off. Just look at this thing.

It almost makes me want to stop eating chicken. Almost, like for about 10 seconds I actually changed my mind, Abby the Abused Chicken had swayed me. Then I realized if I stop eating chicken I stop eating buffalo wings and we’re right in the middle of football season and also it’s just some bald guy named Noah in a huge costume and I immediately want a 20 pack of McNuggets. But you almost did it guys, props. We were right there, unfortunately I, like everyone in this country, really don’t care where our delicious chicken comes from.
