Seriously?

I first was this on Facebook today, and thought, REALLY? It looks like a Peterbilt to me. Then I saw it on Grazing the Net and thought it was too good to not post. And by the way, I have already bought some for Christmas Presents.

“Slaughter Trucks?”

By Greg Henderson and Friends
It’s a new term to us, and likely a new term to anybody with a CDL that makes their living transporting livestock. But more than 8,000 misguided souls have signed a petition at Change.org asking Walmart CEO C. Douglas McMillon to “stop selling toy slaughter trucks in Walmart stores.” Those toy “slaughter trucks” are what most of us would call toy livestock transport trucks, mini versions of the ones that roll down the highways of America. Walmart is selling an “ERTL Big Farm 1:32 Peterbilt Model 579 semi with livestock trailer” for $34.99. But somebody using the online name “Vegan Oso” started the petition and claims, “normalizing the enslavement and murder of animals to kids is not OK.” If you want give your opinion, you can visit the Change.org petition and leave a comment, or you can visit Walmart’s Facebook page and tell Mr. McMillon to keep selling the toys and for him to tell Vegan Oso that calling livestock transports “slaughter trucks” is an insult to the responsible, professional drivers who work hard to help put food on America’s tables.
