The Horror!!!!

Should have used a Koran

[Westbrook]

These people are terminally bored.

Which makes them terminally boring.

They can do as they like, but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

I don’t care about the artsy-fartsy crap, but if it was her bag she could crap in it and feed it back to the crocs, for all I care. Just gave a job to croc-bag maker and a hunter, skinner and a tanner.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

"For her part, Francesca is so far unfazed by the reaction with sources close to her telling TMZ she knew people would be shocked, but that they just don't understand art."

My favorite part of the story. We little people just don't understand art. It takes an 18 year old spoiled brat to teach us the true beauty and meaning of art. Thank you Francesca....

[shibumi]

This kind of crapart is about as worthwhile as watching Steve O from Jackass shoot bottle rockets out of his butt.

On second thought, it’s less worthwhile.

(By the way - I had the tagline a long time before this stunt. Even Ween was ahead of curve as opposed to this vacuous duo.)

[Cowboy Bob]

Take off the Hermes label, and the handbag is only worth $500...

[KarlInOhio]

It's not like she destoyed something productive worth $100,000 such as a piece of constuction equipment. She destroyed $20 of leather with $99,980 of celebrity ego added to it.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Hang Em High.

[Ezekiel]

Eastwood and Shields - known for his work with video portraits and celebrity photography - decided to publicly demolish a $100,000 crocodile Hermès Birkin bag by setting it on fire before taking a chainsaw to it, all in the name of art.

It's all fun and games until someone wrecks a handbag.

All this righteous indignation over the destruction of a $100k bag, but not a raised eyebrow over a *$100k* bag. Looks like the bag-burners are the ones who had a better idea of the true value and use for the idol er bag, although they surely could have picked up its twin at a flea market for $10... :-)

Mrs. Eastwood is even more vapid than Kris Kardashian.

I did not think that was even possible.

[IronJack]

In attempting to educate us unwashed peasants about “art,” she unwittingly revealed herself for an utter fool, in that she paid $100,000 for a satchel to carry her tampons in.

And she also pointed up the duplicity of a cadre of elitists who berate the common folks for neglecting the poor and downtrodden, while she and her friends vainly waste $100K on a self-indulgent stunt. That $100K could have fed a few starving peasants for years.

[Méabh]

Ah, the ageless art of large-scale panty-knotting.

[dead]

What a waste of money.

She should have spent it on vodka, heroin, and a sex change, like a normal celebrity kid.

[Venturer]

I never knew alligators bags were that big.

I wouldn’t mind having a pair of their shoes though.

[running_dog_lackey]

Imagine what it must be like having your 82 year old father come to your high school graduation.

[Sirius Lee]

She should have burnt a flag. Then she would have been a hero to all the leftards.

However they will no doubt try to pass a Bag Burning Amendment or some such that makes it illegal for the rich to dispose of their own property as they see fit.

[gunnyg]

i’m sure it’s a high crime!
But I am also damn proud of not knowing wtf a Hermes Birkin handbag is !!!!!
;)
Semper Watching!
Just Plain Dick

[E. Pluribus Unum]

She probably got more than $100,000 worth of publicity out of it, which was the only point anyway.

[exit82]

For some reason, Judas Iscariot’s famous line came to mind:

“Why was this not sold and the money given to the poor?”

Liberal heads would explode at the thought.
