Are you all nuts?

I may just be mixing things up here, but are you seriously trying to form a debate around McDonalds Happy meal toys? I lead young people, it's what I was elected for, it's what I enjoy doing. I find it hard to believe that a person can take harmless, cheap, meaningless peices of plastic as a danger to our society. And as to another of the comments that I have read here - are you honestly protesting the raising of food animals? The husbandry of animals for food purposes has been an intergral part of human society, culture and basic survival for tens of thousands of years. I believe that if you people should be debating anything, it should be the waste of power and other peoples time that you cause by writing all of these meaningless and illogical arguaments. I find it sad that a persons life can be so irrelevent that they would waste their time protesting food animals or Happy meal toys. And you people wonder why us youths grow up confused?

McSpotlight: Actually, read around the issues and you'll find that this debate is about freedom of speech, the healthiness of junk food and junk advertising, the corporate domination of the planet and the environmental destruction and suffering it causes. Hardly "meaningless and illogical"...
