10/5/18 The Guardian:
For a full week, a big black banner was posted from a sidewalk in Berkeley, California. “OCCUPY WHOLE FOODS”, it declared in large, white block letters.
But the protesters who created it, a group from the animal rights activist organization Direct Action Everywhere (DxE), were not actually able to do much occupying. Just days before a weeklong protest scheduled for late September, in which the activists had planned to call attention to alleged animal welfare violations by suppliers to Whole Foods’ parent company, Amazon, the Berkeley store filed a restraining order.
“We are not allowed to even step foot in the parking lot right now,” said Cassie King, a DxE organizer. “We can’t go inside the store and ask our questions.”
Yes, I know, there is nothing intrinsically leftist about Whole Foods, but I suspect a "Confirm Kavanaugh" bumpersticker would lead at least to some serious yelling, if not a foot deep door ding. And in Bezerkley! Does it get any better?
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.. It's the smell of ... victory!
ReplyDeletePut the bumper sticker on your brand new Model 3 Tesla and see how many dings you get at Whole foods.
