Son of Gacy

I think it's safe to say that John Wayne Gacy was a freak. He was convicted and later executed for the rape and murder of 33 boys, most of whom he buried in the crawl space beneath his house. Those dead boys remained beneath him for most of a decade, until Gacy was arrested in late 1978.

The subject of much scrutiny in criminology circles and the focus of several Hollywood movies, Gacy became known as the "Killer Clown" because of the many block parties he attended in a clown suit to entertain and entice the kiddies. Gacy was not good publicity for merry makers as a rule. Almost anyone with a painted face and comical clothing these days is regarded with at least a modicum of suspicion. I mean, what are they hiding under that paint and the day-glo colors?

So Gacy is dead but his loathsome legacy lives on. One wonders what spawn might have descended on the world if Gacy focused some of his attention on women with the intention of reproducing. It's a moot point, of course, Gacy being a clown of the decomposing variety these days. Still, if you should wonder what Gacy's offspring might have looked like, take a gander at the McDonalds ad running in India.

There is something both pedophillic and acutely evil about this image. If it makes you feel hungry for burgers and fries, I'd wonder about your mental state. I might also be interested in taking a look in your crawl space.

Then again, maybe not.
