Greenpeace Recruiter Immolated...
Discussion
Oh how I sniggered..
Went for a wander into town for some lunch. I was accosted by a Greenpeace recruiter outside McDonalds. Interrupting my daydream about doing donuts in the pedestrian area, I informed him that he was the last person I wished to speak to...
Indignation got the better of me and I got to thinking whilst munching my big mac (I'm not proud, I'm hungry, okay?)... why would Greenpeace try to recruit people who are freqenting McDonalds? Was the irony lost on them?
So, when I was accosted for a second time whilst leaving McDonalds, I was ready for the rampaging vegetablists..
After listening to a brief spiel about caring for the environment I rounded on the unfortunate individual & informed him that I object to Greenpeace because they use falsified statistics to misrepresent and scaremonger, disguising an odious left-wing agenda as "saving the planet" and then use this spurious pretext to interfere with people's freedom.
I'd fashioned the closing line "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to pick up my copy of HydroCarbon Burners' Monthly." in McDonalds and delivered it with pride as I walked away..

Well I was working on the assumption that they'd be impervious to people shouting stuff at them about unnatural relationships with vegetation, so I went for the more sophisticated attack and the guy seemed suitably taken aback..
It's probably old hat to induce a philosophical crisis in passing Jehova's Witnesses, but I find this to be a suitable replacement.
I wonder if there's a forum on the Greenpiece webshite?...

The reason why they station themselves outside Mickey Deees is actually rather insidious.
They know that many people go there with their kids, and Greenpeace and the pressure groups like them know that to win the arguement they have to try to indoctrinate the children. Its the same in schools. You should see some of the stuff my kids bring home from school that has been distributed there by the Veggy lobby and "Animal Rights Job seakers allowance claimants". Most of it is factually inaccurate and some of it is so warped that it beggars belief.
Sadly though, the children get very upset by it and thus vow to be Veggies themselves.Victory for the propogandists and defeat for truth and the freedom of choice.
When all is said and done these people share much with our present Government and others who feel they have some sort of moral superiority over the rest of us.
They think its OK to bend the rules to achieve their aims on our behalf!
Since when did these people ever let the truth get in the way of their opinions?

Want to write an environment column for PH Carzee?
Do I need a pen-name like that Robert Farrago fella? (don't try and tell me it's his real name - farrago means 'mixed fodder' )
Perhaps i could be "Alistair Composted-Silage" or something

JasonF,
My mate's a city boy who told me about this tree huggers demo, about capitalism, in the capital a year or so ago. Apparently a few of the boys goaded the crowd a little by spraying copius amounts of champagne from the office windows!
Good call.

I was there..
Felt sorry for the ones (not) that got into the Liffe Building thinking they were toffs. The Liffe traders are animals and kicked 7 shades of brown stuff outta a few of them.. Saw some footage of one of the dealers leaping down the stairs punching happily lentil munchers....
Ha ha ha ha
Tree huggers... I like it, a classic.
as for the god botherers, when you actually bother to talk to them just to wind them up you realise how little most of them know about their subject. They get stuck so easily when questioned hard and they just want to make a run for it! Had some jehovah's witnesses knock at the door and me and a mate thought f**k it, we were bored of telling them to get lost so we had a laugh. Questions like why does god allow children to be killed got them all muddled and they ran for cover!!!
(ps. I am a believer!!)
