Shoppers furious with Walmart over toy truck
-Some angry shoppers are crying wee-wee-wee with rage all the way home over a children's toy being sold at Walmart.
A change.org petition is asking the retailer to stop selling toy trucks with live stock trailers the are "Normalizing the enslavement and murder of animals to kids."
A comment on the petition by one of the more than 10,000 supporters reads: "As a trucker, seeing these in real life is no treat. The reality is violence. Do not support desensitization of children. This "toy" is no different than a slave train combined with a coroner's wagon. Auschwitz mentality is immoral & degrading."
Another comment by Nicole Maturi from Maryland states: "Glorifying and normalizing slavery, abuse and slaughter is just disgusting."
Walmart's online listing describes the toy as "Exceptionally detailed 1:32 Peterbilt Model 579 Semi Cab with Livestock Trailer provides hours of great play value. The opening rear trailer door allows the child easy play access..."

Animals are animals. This comparison to Auschwitz is insane.
People are getting crazier at a level I just can't comprehend.

Does it come with stink pellets to make it more like the real thing?
I will speed in front of a police officer to get around a chicken or a hog truck...man those things smell bad.

Hmmm..never encountered that smell here in Norway, they must be using better transport. Doesnt necessarily mean that the animals are better off.

Yes. You know it's nearing the end when they place flowers, wreaths, and stuffed toy animals at the grave site of a dead gorilla.

It's the "Save the whales, kill the babies" mentality that has taken over our nation.
Every time I hear one of these folks crying over a dead gorilla or such on the tv I tell my wife; "I would love to ask them how they feel about abortion!"
They probably wouldn't like to hear what I call the bunnies that I breed for meat: "The freezer squad". My kids know why we are raising them and where their meat comes from.

It's the same here. And now we have euthanasia and legal bestiality ("no penetration").

Ask them if they are vegetarians at the same time.
"Yes we are vegetarian abortionists but no, we don't actually eat the fetus after we aborted it"
