Top 6 Spots for Violent Protest Tourism
I’m sure there was some sense of gratification for bonking this guy on the head with a tear gas canister.
To Israel: We aren’t TRYING to send anxious political activists to your lands to protest something irrelevant to them. They have good intentions, it makes them feel noble and important, just pay your taxes or we’ll still hate you. It is tourism…of sorts. Just usually with stinky, dirty backpacking hippies. And with no money. And little or no experience in your culture.
Farmers protest A European Union Cow Fart Tax
Farmers in the European Union are protesting a proposal that cow “Flatulence” (what we call “farts” in America) should be taxed, since cows produce gas.
Should we feel guilty about their farts? Well, the Japanese wrote “Everyone Poops” but perhaps they never read the sequel “Everyone Farts”. Recommended reading for every 5 year old. I’m excited now…. How many times will I get to write the word “fart” in this post? Fartidy, fart, fart, McFart.
De Jesus (Christ AND the AntiChrist) and His Followers Protest Miami…Over a Divorce
Oh boy, it must be my lucky day! Who said Friday the 13th was unlucky? Finding news like this is a pure golden gem that makes me giddy and tickles my fancy!
Religious cults are fun. Especially ones where the leaders have been interviewed by Bill Maher in Religulous. If most religious belief systems didn’t seem schizophrenic and confusing before, our Latin friend De Jesus is BOTH the Second Coming of Christ… AND…. the Anti-Christ.
Washington D.C. Global Warming Protest In The Snow
Haha. Ironic that the biggest Global Warming protest in Washington D.C. right now goes on after a nice fat March snowstorm.
All of those climatologists doing millions of dollars of climate research couldn’t even predict an abnormally warm day to go holler at politicians about how warm the planet is getting? At least make it sound good…
Next time you should pick a day in the summer. Like, near the equator. And you can all rub each other down with greasy suntan lotion. Just don’t get cancer from all of that radiation, I mean, unless you’re really out to prove a point…up to you. I’d enjoy writing about that protest.
From the article:
In a video on Capitol Climate Action’s web site, NASA scientist James Hansen encourages people to join the protest.
“The only practical way to solve the problem is to phase out the biggest source of carbon and that is coal. The science is very clear on that but yet the decision makers are not taking the actions that we needed to do that,” he says. “We have to send that message to Congress and the president.”
DUDE, you’re with NASA. And you’re a scientist. Since I was a kid, I’ve loved NASA and I love scientists (honest, intelligent ones, anyway). The biggest source of carbon is coal? Um, no. did you forge that every living thing on this planet is made of carbon? The biggest sources of carbon emissions would be dying animals and vegetation, exploding volcanoes, and the ocean.
Who is paying you to promote such Junk Activism?!
Look, like I’ve said before, nobody likes pollution. Pollution comes at a cost for our lifestyle we all enjoy. If you want to make the world a better place for people, of course we should stop burning coal and other pollutants for our power source. We definitely pollute and over-consume, we can all agree to these things.
What we shouldn’t do is religiously link our consumption to the noble idea of saving ourselves from the coming Apocalypse.
New York Post Monkey Stimulus Cartoon Inspires Racism Protesting
Racism protests against the New York Post? Nah. New York Post isn’t promoting racism. When I saw this cartoon, the first thought I had wasn’t anything to do with black people.
It was that New York Post was joking that the stimulus bill was written by monkeys and comparing it to current events.
But how could I possibly not jump to the conclusion that this unfunny joke has anything to do with the fact that Obama is half African? Simple. I AM NOT A RACIST. This cartoon has nothing to do with Obama. Nor do I ever think in terms of racial division, until some idiot decides its important and makes a big-ass deal about it.
Monkeys are funny. They are like strong, agile little people. Bonobo Chimps are something like 98.9% identical to us. They have fingers and feet and make funny faces. There are numerous phrases about monkies that makes this a joke that any 6 grader can appreciate:
- Monkeying Around
- 1,000 Monkeys Given Typewriters and Infinite Time will Eventually write the complete works of William Shakespeare
- This place is run by monkies
- So easy a monkey could do it
To Al Sharpton, Spike Lee, and everyone else who thinks this was racist: Racism does NOT end by empowering groups of people based on their skin color. Racism ends when you succeed to make race irrelevant to society. Make apathy your friend. You are an old, dying breed, fighting for relevance where little or none is needed. The younger generation doesn’t give a shit about a “white agenda” or a “black agenda” and if we do, it’s because you’ve taught it to us.
We want to live free of this silly, irrelevant immaturity. Stop being selfish publicity whores and support the greater good. Stop ostriching or supporting those you feel important enough…. stop reading between the lines only to stir controversey. Of course racism still exists. It exists in people like you who grab ahold of any opportunity to grandstand your own ego.
Think about it this way: we elected a half African President. We’re well on our way and you’re just pissed because you’re a dinosaur who is becoming less important. Go away.
The ONLY apology that the New York Post should even be responsible for issuing is one that says they’re sorry for offense and it was not their intention. And they did. So, case closed.
