Aflac TV Commercial Degrades Ducks

What, you missed the thread (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=710) where I said I thought it was wrong to forcefeed ducks and geese until their livers distend to 10 times their normal size and create all sorts of painful and damaging side-effects, just so some rich pigs can eat pate fois gras? You got it wrong, sistah. I'm a total pussy when it comes to animals.

From the link:

If you plan to keep the duck logo, why not switch to a person in a costume?

Er, so pushing a person in a duck costume over the edge of the Grand Canyon would be okay?
