Another reason why California should be declared a no-brain zone.
Some lame dolt and an organization of lame dolts are suing [1] McDonald’s because…I can’t believe I’m typing this….Happy Meals are marketed to kids.
I’m not kidding.
Someone filed a lawsuit against McDonald’s because they market Happy Meals to kids. See, Happy Meals include a small toy.
“What kids see as a fun toy, I now realize is a sophisticated, high-tech marketing scheme that’s designed to put McDonald’s between me and my daughters,” said Monet Parham, of Sacramento, Calif. “For the sake of other parents and their children, I want McDonald’s to stop interfering with my family.”
Monet? First of all, there should be a law against anyone being named Monet filing a lawsuit about anything.
I’m a parent, Monet. Stop interfering with MY family!
Apparently, Money works for the government of California and she is joined by the fringe wackos at the Center for Science in the Public Interest [2] who says “Every time McDonald’s markets a Happy Meal directly to a young child, it exploits a child’s developmental vulnerability.”
How about every time a wacko fringe group exploits children to advance their leftist agenda?
Maybe I’ll sue them.
Their other great ideas, from their website, include a soda tax, government-imposed limits on salt, and of course, the “everyone should be a vegetarian” nonsense one often finds in these groups.
Why did I know that raising a tax would be somewhere in there?
But, no, these geniuses think that in a world of war, recession, joblessness, homelessness, deficits and debt, the most important thing to do is file a lawsuit over whether Ronald McDonald can advertise Happy Meals to kids.
What’s next? Ice cream? Candy?
People like Monet don’t need to be working for government. Anyone with such a fixation on running people’s lives to the extent that she would file a lawsuit over Happy Meals is more than a few French Fries short.
