Time for some keyboard warrior-ing, pet peeps ...

A company called "Morris Costumes" (party@morriscostumes.com) manufactures a 'halloween' costume that has a dead (stuffed animal) dog as an accessory. The 'dog' has a tire track across its body and 'blood stains' on the neck'. I really don't want to glorify them by posting a link or pic.

It was being sold via WalMart.com (they have pulled the product) and is still available via Sears.com and Amazon.

Let 'em know what you think ...

who should be roadkill himself. What a sick idea! And I cannot believe that top companies even considered carrying it. Whose decision was that?!?!?!
