not really since they were charged with defacing a federal monument.

So what exactly does Greenpeace do with the 98% of the money they solicit not involving high profile attention whoreing?

Do they spend it all on dope and banging hippie chicks stupid enough top fall for their crap?

In Germany, Greenpeace has a big administration. Mainly people sitting in a office tower, wearing suits doing office work. You wouldn't know that they are part of Greenpeace. I imagine one of the big problems of such organisations is that parts will simply make up themselvs. If you give me work and tell me that this work is based on finding new problems, I will find new problems.

They are really venturing into the business world these days. They are trying to get into the label market (Things like "Greenpeace Energy" - Label for "green" energy producers), and are publishing a magazine. Among other things.

And that Greenpeace-Magazine had a nice scandal here a few months ago. That magazine was mostly made up with test about retailers, product test etc. One very big german retailer had miserable results on fresh fruit quality, and suddenly after a few months exactly the same retailer got best grades, in all kind of categories. Turns out that exactly this retailer bought thousands of copies of the Greenpeace magazine every month, massivly driving up their print numbers. However those magazines were for the very largest part never sold. Reporters found out that in most stores they would simply get dropped into the trash, and asking cashiers if they knew the magazine, some of them said "I never sold that magazine".

Organisations such as this seem to always pick up their own dynamic after some time.

Your buddy is smart.

The dumbasses don't even realize that Teddy Roosevelt did more in his presidency, than their entire damn organization has in its existence for conservation.

So basically what you're saying is that Greenpeace has moved into Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton blackmail territory....or more specifically, greenmail.

Nice.......

but but but but... that gets in the way of their attention whoring. And besides Teddy was a evil neo con.

You should hear some of the comments from the supporters of these criminals. Like rushmore should be demolished as its a symbol of oppression. etc.

Tibetan activists and other groups get their point across the world without breaking the laws. Why cant these people do the same?

Big fines and jail time is what they deserve.

Man, you should be in charge of Greenpeace recruitment. Free dope and banging hippie chicks sounds great to me.

[Noons86]

But remember the hippie paradox: Hippies are the ones you are most likely to see naked, but least likely to want to see naked.

Well, to be fair, the spokeperson stated that the goal wasn't to insult the 4 presidents on there and that they were careful not to damage the monument. Rather the message was for Obama to do more than just speak eloquently about environmental policy if he wanted to reach the same presidential stature as those four.

That being said, Greenpeace is a bunch of jackasses.

Greens, Peace-Corps types, PIRG, etc., etc., etc. Easiest broads to nail in college. Many were fugly as hell, but here and there one runs into one of those wide-eyed, naive, girl-next-door hotties that will let you do anything.p-)

Well, if you notice, gay matchup sites are the sponsors of our DADT/gay marriage debate threads, Muslim dating sites are the sponsors to our Islam-bashing threads, and anti-Israel sites are the sponsors of anything Israel-related.

Good post macs, inevitably these groups pick up inertia and become conformant. As they are such a big biz now they can afford to pay for the damage they do.

There is a big initial outlay for the chick, but then she can be "recycled" among the group :)

Greenpeace and other civil society organisations provide the essential balance to the lobbying work of corporate interest groups.

Of course Greenpeace or other organisations don't represent 100% of the people but neither do corporate lobbists or political parties. The work of Greenpeace to promote animal rights and environmental protection is as legitimate as that of all other organised interest groups in the political system.

Generating public attention for a topic is a legitimate and effective method to promote certain views. Greenpeace just happens to be on of the most successful organisations in this field. Their success is probably the reason why conservatives automatically discredit them as pot-smoking, tree-hugging, communist hippies.


The fact that organisations such as Greenpeace trespass into the business world is related to an increasing awareness among consumers for the ecological and political qualities of a product.

There are a number of ways to generate public attention without defacing revered federal monuments - that is why they are discredited.

EDIT: just watched the whole video - those soy burger ****ting punks repelled down Lincoln's face? How about some good old bigoted ass kicking for these pie in the sky douchebags?

I just got done burning a few hundred old tires for my retaliation against green peace hippies.
