: : If you, in your own words, not Rex's, not this sites, can give me 5 good reasons that McD's is extremely unethical, I would be very surprised.

:
: 1. They are DESTROYING THE ENVIRONMENT

Their suppliers are DESTROYING THE ENVIROMENT.

: 2. They surpress that same freedom of speech you mentioned from anyone who speaks out against them

So I'm the only one at this site that isn't threatened with a law suit? I think not.

: 3. They promote unhealthy food

Promoting unhealthy food is not bad. They aren't holding a gun to people's head and forcing them to eat their food, they're merely advertising it.

: 4. They take land from ancient tribes and other farmers to ranch their animal products

Everyone living in the US is guilty of that.

: 5. They produce toxic waste and other garbage that can not be recycled

Toxic waste? Correct me if I'm wrong, but they don't have radio active material in their burgers.

: SURPRISE SURPRISE i have more

In response to your other post: what you did is fine. Nobody's born knowing this stuff. What i didn't want was people giving me links.
