But eat them already. All you do is throw salt over them until they're too salty. I'd like to have 2 legs, small freezer, you know.

Would be wild to watch it sink.

Yes, pollute the ocean. That will help to fight climate change. /s

Oh no. Paint. I’m sure she will learn from this.

It's about the message. There are only so many peaceful ways to protest and this is not the worse one for sure.

Not to defend anyone here, but this is about the worst form of protest ever. They do this little stunt, honest working people on that boat will have to clean it up and they end up being paraded on the internet for about a day and that's it. Nothing changes. People will still buy at Wallmart and consume cheap easily available products. Simple as that.

Well for one she will have to pay to have it cleaned.. If I've learned anything about greedy dragons hoarding wealth; they hate paying for anything, especially shit they didn't have to before. (I.e. taxes, invoices from contractors, employee Healthcare, etc)

You ever had someone scratch your car?... Now imagine that your car costs like 50 million dollars and the scratch won't just buff out.

Nothing points out a hypocrite as much as protest against mass consumption in mass produced shoes and attire. If you have issue with big corporations, buy local and small manufacturers. That's it. If you have issues with salaries, unionize. This stunt does nothing other than point out how sheltered some people are.
