We have now all seen it: President Barack Obama killing a small fly and then gleefully celebrating that he “got the little sucker.” Now, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) (never late in embarrassing itself) has denounced the killing and encouraged people to use a “catch and release” device.
PETA insists that the President should have left to retrieve a proper Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher, a device that allows users to trap a house fly and then release it outside. PETA spokesman Bruce Friedrich issued a statement: “We support compassion even for the most curious, smallest and least sympathetic animals. We believe that people, where they can be compassionate, should be, for all animals.”
Of course, it is good to see PETA moving away from soft porn, here.
