The animal rights group has been lobbying McDonald’s to require its chicken suppliers in the U.S. and Canada to kill their chickens by gassing them, which is a new process that is being adopted in Europe.

The activists were soon met by a counter-group of chicken lovers who showed up to support the local Mcdonald’s. To see the whole story, click here.
