Will PETA turn Jeffrey Dahmer's childhood home into a vegan restaurant?

      Proving its members don't understand the concept of subtlety or have any sort of respect for the dead, PETA has bizarrely announced that it would like to turn cannibal serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer's childhood home into a vegan restaurant.

      The name PETA is floating out there? “Eat for Life—Home Cooking”.

      In a blog post on the animal-activist organization's website, PETA compare Dahmer's crimes, which included the torture, rape, murder, and/or cannibalism of 16 victims, to eating animals.

      Like Dahmer’s human victims, cows, pigs, and chickens are made of flesh and blood and fear for their lives when confronted by a man with a knife. They are also drugged and dragged, and their limbs are bound. Their struggles and screams are ignored as they are killed and cut up to be consumed. Their bones are thrown away like garbage.

      The three-bedroom, three-bathroom house in Akron, Ohio—and the location of Dahmer's first murder/dismemberment—is currently for sale for US$295,000.

      According to PETA's blog post:

      We’re always looking for ways to turn cruelty on its ugly head, so when we heard that serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer‘s childhood home had been put up for sale, we saw an opportunity to create good out of evil. Rather than remaining as a stark reminder of its dark past, the building can instead become the site of a celebration of culinary compassion.

      I'm very sure the families of Dahmer's victims appreciate PETA's useless, tragedy-exploiting gesture.

      And I'm super sure that the vegans eating there would definitely not be thinking about a cannibal serial killer devouring the flesh of his victims while they tuck into their quinoa salads.

      What's next, PETA? Turn Robert Pickton's place into a local farm-to-table restaurant?
