People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wants the White House to change its Easter egg roll into a Easter potato roll.

In a letter to first lady Jill Biden, PETA president Ingrid Newkirk floated the idea, suggesting the switch from eggs to spuds.

"Instead of promoting the deleterious factory farming and slaughter industries, will you please initiate the annual White House Potato Roll?" Newkirk asked in the letter, according to a PETA press release.

This is how it all starts. Soon Fido will have the remote control to the big screen and it will be nothing but Lassie. Over, and over again. Warn the neighbors, seek shelter.

Sure look like typical deranged leftists to me.

Probably not big on the thought of raising a family. That might interfere with their activist lifestyle.

Pregnant? Must get an abortion to continue saving the chickens.

I’m for being decent to animals - no problem for food, though

After all, God gave us dominion over them

That being said, I expect a good number of these folks are Leftists and support traditionally-Leftist agendas

I’ve become more and more convinced these lefty front groups sit around and think of the most outrageous and stupid things to promote just to see who will support the stupidity. It’s how they identify the thoughtless and mindless.

I’m surprised PETA didn’t recommend rolling aborted babies.

How about a various assortment of poo balls? Cow, horse, dog, cat, pig, human, each tightly compacted into balls and painted bright colors.

Not enough space on the WH lawn for that.
