Australian Embassy Protest

RE*AC*TOR

Can someone please get down to the Australian embassy with a camera?

PETA are staging a protest today.

They are the sexiest of all the protests.

But seriously, this is apparantly about better conditions for shearing sheep in Australia. I didn't realise that they suffered much in the process tbh.

Dades

We've had the wool pulled over our eyes for too long now.

:mad:

Beruthiel

no wonder some of them go on the lamb

Shabadu

I feel baaad for the sheep etc.

Ann Elk

I'm all for free speech but it shouldn't be RAMmed down our throats

Dades

This protest has really got my goat up.

projectmayhem

about time they bust the government around the chops

billy the squid

anyone care to tell us again what all the ewe and cry is about?

LegacyUser

what the flock's this all about?

monkeyfudge

I'll be glad when this is all over so that I'll be able to sheep easy at night.

Pighead

You'd better get a moooooove on if you want to catch them

Pighead

That's not what I herd.

On a more serious note, who wants to head down the embassy and throw mint sauce at the protesters?

Dellgirl

WOW - Not one gag about a horn!! Im impressed

Tomohawk

...and then we could burn our Pretenders albums!

That video of the treatment of sheep really is terrible.
And what a note to end it on - whoever compiled the final cut of that should get a pay rise or something. Certainly does it's job of shocking you.

*edit* linkage <-- do NOT watch unless you've a strong stomach

PETA are idiots.

They are animals. Therfor they belong in my stomoch.

END OF STORY.

astrofool

someone needs to do an Alan Partridge, and drop a dead sheep on the lot of them (In Partidge they dropped a cow on him )

landser

someone should bring a sheepdog and herd them through gates and into a pen.

if the PETA protest is like the one on grafton street , there'll be about 12 people protesting, including a very ugly woman with a megaphone shouting slogans a la,

what do we want?

an end to the exploitation of ovines by the cloting industry situated in the antipodes and in south-east asia in general, failing which, more stringent control of animal welfare by the australian government and her brittanic majesty

when do we want it?

within the next 6 - 12 months as soon as a framework for action which has aviable chance of success can be drafted, debated and enacted, or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter.

or something equally as catchy

Fúck sake, I'm glad their protesting about sheep and not fish or this thread would already be 10 pages of horrible puns.

I lost all respect for Peta (not that I ever had much to begin with) after their recent stunt of handing out buckets of fake blood to schoolkids. It just brought home (noble intentions aside) what a bunch of nutjobs they are imho.

Siogfinsceal

i bet the government are feeling a bit sheepish about it all tho...

Ruaidhri

what's all this bleating about sheep being treated baaadly? PETA scare me. they make the baby jesus cry.

I think I will order a big footlong steak sub from subway and join in the protest.

gandalf

I suppose the Gardai will be around soon to Shepard them away

I hope they bring out the Garda dogs. I'd love to see someone set a mutt on those protesters.

Pighead

Enough of the puns thank you very much,any more punning and i'll ram my fist down your throat
Game over

WizZard

Don't lambast PETA. They're supposedly the good guys

astrofool

If only Richard Whiteley were still around, he'd punish you

MrJoeSoap

Ewe lot should take a long hard look at yourselves. Theres a serious protest going on and all people can do is have a few sheep digs. Disgraceful.

danniemcq
