Eco-Terrorists?

This article reminds me of when I worked in Manhattan in my early 20's...

The big thing at that time was spraying red ink on people's fur coats to show the blood of the poor baby seals who were clubbed to death to make them. Now... I think the baby seals are cute as hell and it horrifies me to think of how they die to make those coats, but let's use some common sense here:

1. People who wear fur coats *probably* have some disposable income.

2. People who wear fur coats *probably* like them.

What are they going to do when you ruin their coat? They're going to go out and buy ANOTHER one!
