BND Activists narrowly escape consumer stampede
Smashing capitalism in Dublin Sat 30th Nov
A few brave volunteers dared question the consumer frenzy that is Christmas
While Dublin consumers looked on activists sang sudvertised carol’s made music handed out free food and information shoppers were asked to think about their spending habits and not to consume for one day she shopping zones of temple bar and Grafton street were targeted on a pert icily busy Saturday afternoon
WORK CONSUME DIE
As Is now traditional a security guard at the sight of a protester came rushing out of his shop verbally assaulted the protester (“you can fucking move or you’ll be carried away”) then smashed the indymedia journalist’s video camera over his own head

BUT STILL THEY SHOPPED

Food not bombs gave out free sandwiches and pretzels much to the disgust of the empty O’Brien’s sandwich bar

Sorry guys, but you are practising double standards. Many you have fat cat dads that have created their wealth through capitalism. That is why your Dad drives a beamer and plays his golf every wednesday with the local Chief Super. You are just going through the typical College phase in life. Convince me in 20 years. You will not be standing on the street like an idiot, you will be just like your fat cat dad out on the golf course. Get real!! Enjoy your time at College, dont wast it on rubbish like this. At the end of the day nobody gives a shit.

If you have nothing good to say why don't you fuck off and drown yourself, you sound like a pig to me, there are no phases in life you tit that's just another lie sold to you by Mtv and sex in the city so you can be pidgeonholed labelled and sold. E.G. COLLEGE YEARS = Buy more beer
TEENAGE YEARS = Buy more shitney beers
YOUNG ADULT = Buy more gillette products
MID THIRTIES = Buy excercise bike so you can look like Brad pitt. But you seem to be happy enough with subjugation and not having to think for yourself and not making a difference because your too shit scared that somebody might see you stepping out of your pidgeon hole. William really why don't you just but a 12 guage in you mouth and pull both triggers, and don't worry no one will miss you, rat fuck pig motherfucker...

William, you are indeed an idiot of the highest order. If i hear anyone tell me what peoples dads do or do not do one more time...
In case you haven't noticed, a) not everyone has rich parents
and b)people have separate identities to their parents, and
c)if something you do can make people stop and think about the amount they consume and waste for one day, it's a good day.
I thought there was a pretty positive reaction to BND anyways, people couldn't understand why we were giving away free food and stopped to ask, instead of just giving to the RTS people, this time they were just random hungry punters and homeless people. A lot of people took fliers, ate food asked questions and showed interest.
There should have been more people out to help out though...

I saw you lot in Dublin on Saturday. I couldn't help thinking: "What a bunch of sad gits. And posh sad gits at that." I assume Daddy picked you up from town that evening in his Merc - Foxrock is such a long journey by Bus...

I see you're still pissed off that nobody gave a toss about BND, plus you looked like a nobhead in public in the process. Great writing by the way. :-) In 5 years times, you'll be looking back and saying, "Waht was I thinking?" Sorry, but you will.
