PETA is lashing out at fur-wearing twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. The animal rights group has been known to pick a few fights in their day, with Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez among others, but this time it's a bloodbath -- at least virtually.
An entire channel of PETA's Web site is currently devoted to an attack on "Hairy-Kate and Trashley Trollsen." "After all, only someone as heartless as a troll would wear the skins of dead animals," declares PETA. Ouch! Come on guys, the Olsens probably just need help staying warm.
The online attack includes a video mash-up of Full House and footage of animals being killed and an interactive feature in which you can dress ghoulish cartoon versions of the Olsens in bloody animal carcasses. Oh, and if you're still in need of a Halloween costume, don't forget to order or print out your own "Trollsen Twin" mask. It's sure to scare the trick-or-treaters.
What do you think? Is PETA being too harsh or are they justified in the actions?
