What did creepy Ronald McDonald ever do to anyone?

McDonald's is always catching heat for it's menu & influence on American culture. People should know by now, when you walk in McDonald's, you're not going in for a veggie shake. There are risks involved!

Although, on Wednesday, a group called Corporate Accountability Interntaional placed ads in newspapers across the U.S., including The Chicago Tribune. They were asking the company to stop marketing to children & retire Ronald McDonald.

Now wait a minute, I'm not a huge fan of McDonalds but when I'm lazy or stoned out of my mind, I'll hop in there & get a burger or two. I pay for it later or sometimes very soon! How can they just target McDonalds? What about Burger King, Wendy's, or Jack in the Crack?

Don't get me wrong, Ronald creeped the hell out of me when I was a kid & still does! Ronald was never appealing to me as a kid & the more he smiled, the more I wanted to hide under a bed. Ronald has been the face of McDonalds since 1963 and a huge influence in their marketing campaign to children. They cannot &  will not retire Ronald. What about the Ronald McDonald House of Charities? The house has been around for 36 years improving the lives of children & families all over the world.

Corporate Accountability International needs to get real. There are other fish to fry & McDonalds is more like a shark. They won't be changing anything soon. If you want to change kids diet, don't take them to McDonalds! It starts in the homes & if people continue to take their kids to McDonalds, then let them. Unfortunately those kids will have to deal with the fact that their parents are just too lazy to cook or take them somewhere else.

Ronald McDonald is still creepy though!
