The controversial organization wrote in a letter to First Lady Jill Biden that it wants to “suggest an appealing way to modernize the White House Easter Egg Roll,” which is set for April 1st on the South Lawn. […]

… PETA President Ingrid Newkirk states … a ”potato roll” would not “exploit any sentient beings and would encourage empathy and kindness to animals while supporting potato farmers in the U.S.” …

Someone joked about this on FR this morning.

Seems like we must have a Babylon Bee writer on this site.

Less than 5 hours the prediction came true.

Sooo, “they” make plastic Easter eggs. Why a “Joetatoe” when recycled plastic works “better”? 🤔

Something is telling me everything the lefties tell us ain’t quite right....

Unfertilized eggs aren’t sentient. Hens lay eggs of their own volition.

Someone’s going to come up with a ‘bright’ idea:
“Hey! How about we use EGG-Rolls for the Easter lawn party?
Most restaurants don’t use real eggs for those rolls anyway, or no very much real egg. There’s a lotta Tofu in there.”

Eggs are a symbol of Christ who came out of the tomb in the same way that chicks come out of the egg.

PETA has lots of money, but I despise them. They would send white girls from the west (Mainly US and Canada) to protest eating chicken and fish. They would pull these stunts on the streets, while street kids were begging nearby.

Fish and chickens are the main source of protein for the poor here.

They have been substituting vaginas for balls for some time now, so why not eggs for potatoes?

“”would not “exploit any sentient beings and would encourage empathy and kindness to animals””

How about rolling the heads of these demented jerks?

She really thinks the chickens KNOW how their eggs are being used? Guess so!

a ”potato roll” would not “exploit any sentient beings...”


Are the Democrats exploiting a sentient being by using dementia-ridden Biden as a figurehead? Or is that exploiting a non-sentient being? Once-sentient?

Maybe in honor of ramadan The Big Guy should order that a goat be sacrificed on the White House lawn on Easter Sunday.
