Obama’s Fly Swat And PETA’s Overreaction

 

During an interview with CNBC, a fly persistently flew around the President’s head. Naturally, President Obama shooed it away, but it kept coming back. So the President decided to swat and kill the pest. It was a nice slap, especially since he got the little bugger on the first attempt. Now PETA is disappointed with the President for not showing “compassion even for the most curious, smallest and least sympathetic animals.” As for future encounters with the common house fly, PETA is sending the Katcha Bug Humane Bug Catcher so that no more flies will be killed by Obama’s wrath.

I really think PETA is going overboard with being kind to all living things, but at least they did not resort to their radical measures that are most commonly associated with the organization. House flies are not endangered and would be dead within 20 or 30 days anyway. Also, the President was trying to have a serious interview and having a fly buzzing around your head would be very distracting. Although I do not agree with the President on most things, I do have agree that was an impressive swat.

  3. Danget Zach, just so you know this video was removed, but the story is so funny! Some people are cool for supporting a cause or a belief, and then there are the people who go totally overboard and crazy. I think PETA has lost their initial focus on what their cause was, and now they just want control over all of the animals I guess.
