A Just Cause?
This is a photograph of a protester from PETA crouching in a cage outside the Zoo in Barcelona to highlight the plight of wild animals kept in zoo cages. Well I think it’s just terrific that she took a stand for those defenseless animals. I also think it’s quite wonderful that she chose to do it by getting naked and painting herself like a sexy little feline, but that’s beside the point. The bottom line is that she had the courage to stand up for those who could not stand up for themselves. It’s like the time, a few years back, when I got naked, painted myself red and ran into a local candy store in extreme protest of the sudden and cruel removal of the red M&M’s from the market. Those poor red chocolate treats couldn’t be heard on their own, so I took it upon myself to be their voice, and believe me, I was heard that day. After all, a naked guy painted red, shaking his fist and screaming “Damn You” over and over again at an elderly convenience store clerk does not go unnoticed. Some people said I was a fool to do it but hey, the red M&M’s are back again, aren’t they? Mission accomplished as far as I’m concerned.
