Octopi Target McDonald’s We have usually heard reports of protesters to McDonalds because of things like french fries that aren’t even vegetarian safe, and even though their methods for killing animals for their fast food is now considered less stressful to the animal (though couldn’t you argue that killing an animal is enough stress for animals?), we enjoyed hearing about this protest. In December, there was a demonstration against the opening of a McDonald’s in southern France. 500 protested, using a catapult to bombard the restaurant with local catches of fresh octopus. A high-pressure hose and a bucket of octopi, using their McTentacles, to stick it to them. Copyright Chicago Poet Janet Kuypers. All rights reserved.
