Can I ask a stupid question?

Is this house in an area zoned for a business such as a restaurant?

If they want to have a PETA run vegan restaurant, to push their PETA theology, why do they want to do it at the former home of a notorious serial killer?

Are the PETA people just basically nuts???

Which question is the stupid one . . . ? They all seem fair.

As for question 1, article says this:
The three-bedroom home, which has well water and a septic system, is zoned only for single-family residential use—not for commercial purposes. But a PETA spokesperson told the paper that the animal rights group is serious about the offer and is willing to take whatever steps necessary to open the new food joint. …
PETA always goes for acts in extremely poor taste, to say the least.
“We are always looking forward to ways to draw attention to the violence inherent in the production of meat, eggs and milk—which involve processes that would shock all but the most hard-hearted person,” (Ingrid) Newkirk wrote, according to the (Akron Beacon-Journal) newspaper. “Dahmer’s old house gives us a way to evoke sympathy for these victims and to suggest that a life-affirming diet can change everything.” …
That would answer 2 and 3, I think.
