Man Protesting General Mills’ ‘Pro-Gay Agenda’ Accidentally Sets Lawn Aflame With Cheerios

Generally, one must be very careful when protesting, lest one accidentally set a lawn on fire with a box of flaming Cheerios. It’s rule number two of protesting, right after “don’t misspell ‘fig.'”

But one renegade protester, attempting to draw attention to the General Mills cereal company’s supposed “pro-gay agenda,” proceeded to set a box of evil, gay Cheerios on fire in front of the company’s headquarters in Golden Valley, Minnesota. After igniting the box, pieces of cardboard and more than a few surprisingly flammable little O’s fell to the ground, causing the grass to catch fire. The man attempted to stamp the flames out with his foot, then decided it might be better to just gather his Special Protest Stool and leave.

Have a look at this beautiful protest art, below:
