Brainless Gals in Topless Protest
Opinion Journal On Line ^ | 7 July 2005 | James Taranto

Posted on 07/07/2005 12:41:17 PM PDT by StrangerInParadise

Were we right or were we right when we said that the mindset of Karen Finley, the vulgarian "performance artist," had taken over the Angry Left? Check out this report from the San Francisco Chronicle:

A dozen anti-war activists from Mendocino County took their tops off at high noon in San Francisco's Union Square shopping district Thursday, using what they said was their best weapon to get the public's attention. . . .

Members of the Breasts Not Bombs contingent, which included seven women, three men and two young girls, said the war in Iraq is indecent, not their nakedness. . . .

Breasts Not Bombs said they are trying to make people uncomfortable to get their anti-war message across and to also desensitize people to nudity.

Of course, as we noted last month, such shock tactics "make people uncomfortable" only insofar as they fail to "desensitize" them.

Saw this one, then saw the pix of the women involved. I just returned from puking in the restroom when I saw your ping.

Yeah, I didn't see the hairy pit pic until after I pinged you. Just figured you'd get a chuckle out of breasts and bombs given my email earlier in the week. ;o)

Comparing you to them is like comparing a blockbuster to an improvised explosive device.

They shouldn't be prosecuted for indecent exposure--they should be prosecuted for disgusting exposure.
