So there's this lady crossing the Mexican border, and someone is the customs line says "My, what a loverly brooch!"
And then it crawls up her...
OK, I joke. Sort of. There really was a lady wearing a bug brooch, though, and she's got my favorite cultists wetting their organic cotton pants over it.
Now, leaving aside the fact that those are clearly fake stones (so it's a broke bug), what's Peta's deal here?Well, the little bug-ger is still alive.
"This woman’s choice of a fashion accessory gives new meaning to the term fashion victim," said Jaime Zalac, media liaison for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
Wait, you say... Surely even the utter loons whackadoodle nutjobs ACTIVISTS (There. Got it, and with a straight face - Not!) at Peta draw the line at insects, right?
Ummmm.... wrong.
"Beetles may not be as cute and cuddly as puppies and kittens, but they have the same capacity to feel pain and suffer" Zalac said referring to the jeweling of the beetle. "It’s ironic.

Bwahaha! Oh, my!
"We spend hours each week helping kind people find humane ways to relocate lost insects..."
They spend hours relocating roaches! Oh, I swear... as long as there are Petapeople out there, I'll never be at a loss for entertainment! Wonder how long it'll take them to find loving homes for all those bats in their collective belfry?! Heehee. Relocating roaches.
Coulda been worse... Ol' Mr. Bug wouldn't have gotten nearly as much sympathy had he been wearing a nice, fur coat while eating a bacon doublecheeseburger!
Roaches. Thank you, Peta - for starting my Monday with a howl!
