Eco-vandals targeted Walmart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie's £241million superyacht in Ibiza today, using fire extinguishers to coat it in red and black paint.
Vegan activists from Futuro Vegetal (Vegetable Future) sprayed the 360ft vessel before holding up a 'You Consume Others Suffer' sign in their latest climate protest stunt.
The Spanish group has claimed responsibility in a statement on social media, which states that 'the only reason we continue to maintain an economic system that leads us to eco-social collapse is to sustain the privileges of this small privileged class.'
The superyacht belongs to US supermarket heiress Nancy Walton Laurie, who has an estimated $7.7billion fortune and is the daughter of Walmart co-founder James 'Bud' Walton.
It has been moored in the marina for five days and was scheduled to leave Ibiza today. But the vandals struck just as the crew prepared to set sail. Police say two male protesters have been arrested.
It comes just two days after the Spanish group carried out a similar stunt in Ibiza, when the eco-zealots sprayed paint onto a private jet.
A crewmember from a yacht nearby to Kaos told MailOnline the damage to the vessel will likely cost its owner 'millions'.
**SNIP**
Futuro Vegetal's aim is to end subsidies to livestock farming and use the money for a transition to a socially and ecologically just plant-based food system, according to their mission statement.
It states: 'We don't have time to keep trying the same tactics we've been using for years.
'We need the entire population to be aware of the critical point that we have reached as humanity and of the intergenerational violence that institutional policies entail in the face of the Climate Crisis.'

I don’t care.

I lived in the Ozarks when Walton’s was just a 5 and 10 cent store. Poverty everywhere! poor schools no real jobs.
I still live here and this county is rich in jobs with decent wages! I would never go back to the old ways. Two richest counties in NW Arkansas! And it overflows into MO, Okla,and other a joining counties. Thanks to Sam Walton, and the trucking industry that has sprung up around his businesses.
Meanwhile, the rest of the state is still Poverty Central!
In the past I might’ve objected to this kind of thing....but given how the super rich have gone in for full blown hypocrisy and Gaia worship....given how they support Democrats overwhelmingly....given how they support the WEF and efforts to reduce everyone else to the status of being peasants, this kind of thing doesn’t really bother me anymore.
Go ahead and vandalize those mega yachts and private jets.
Worst veggies anywhere .. if you mean fresh produce!
For instance, why do most of their tomatoes come from over 3,000 miles away, from Mexico when right down the road from me, Florida, the tomatoes grow year round and are a hellofa better tasting fruit!😠
I am in Virginia but born and raised in South Florida
I don’t shop for produce at Walmart, but sometimes go there for other things. In this northern climate, some Walmart veggies do indeed look good in winter.
Walmart has nice women’s gym shirts and hats at reasonable prices. I’ve saved $$ on cat food I buy for the strays I feed. Of course my spoiled kitty gets the best organic crunchies at great cost, available only at Petsmart.
There goes the wage increases, but at least more security will be employed and more cameras purchased.
And the pride of progressives swells even greater before satan’s gleeful eyes.
The ship should use them as chum.
What about all the jobs that went into building said yacht up and down the supply chain?
Consumption paid their wages.
What about the consumers of the output these dirty seaweed hair morons produce.
Seems a typical leftist position. Do everything you can to derail your own best interest.
One can slaughter an animal before and without giving time for it to suffer.
Time to start shooting these people.
Any AOC cheering tweets for her “heroes”?
“Wonder if these folks would like a taste of their tactics. On their stuff.”
Exactly!
Vegans are known as ‘Bad Hunters’.
Kill every last one of these freaks, after 7 years of 5-times-a-day hour-long waterboarding sessions.
