Amnesty International (AI) has discovered the biggest promotional market there is. Sports!!
AI has stretched their “Human Rights” hand in to the Beijing Olympics in China. They are of course protesting China’s “Human Rights” record. They also have a really compelling ad campaign against China too.
They “protested” during the Cricket world cup Against Sri Lanka with a “No Ball” Campaign (Throwing a Cricket Ball to the ground with Sri Lanka’s name and shouting No Ball as I remember it).
What Amnesty International has realized is that Sports is the best way to raise money. Sports being the closest thing to people they can get a lot of people “aware” by attacking sporting events. IS IT RIGHT TO ATTACK SPORTS TO FULLFILL A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AND UNRELATED AGENDA?
I don’t think so. Sports have nothing to do with China’s Human rights record (Unless of course Chinese Torturers use Boxing gloves and pistols in the way Amnesty International depicts in those advertisements.) The same way Sri Lankan Cricketers (nor the supporters) had nothing to do with whatever the accusations Amnesty International accused the Sri Lankan Government of doing.
But what does Amnesty care. They get what they want which is a shit load of money from innocent people in the western countries so they can spend it whatever they spend it on.
This also makes me wonder. Amnesties campaign about Human Rights in Sri Lanka was a non-issue. (At least when the Cricket world cup was taking place) So we must ask are there such crimes against Humanity in China? Other countries use torture/executions legally. Such as United States (Which I think redefined torture) Eastern European Countries which allows US torture chambers. IS Amnesty planning to protest major sporting events of these countries too? Maybe Amnesty Will protest at the next Super Bowl or the Kentucky Derby to protest Gitmo? Or US torture?
Of course they want. These people make their money from the “democratic” west. So they will never go so hard against their sponsors. Sure they’ll make the occasional press release., but never a full all out protest.

Ha, they bandaged the cats tail, if I tried that with my cat it would run around the house at high speed until the bandage came off. But I don’t understand, what is wrong with the pictures?
Just have to ask, is there a connection between being out of shape and Wheezie?

Looks like a cat with his feet behind him(to his left) – other than that, it’s a normal cat.
Alter time so that you didn’t kill the fairy so we can get out of the trouble we’ll have several hundred panels later.

I have been suffering of late from a serious bought of FFS, or the tragic “Fetish Fatigue Syndrome.” Thankfully these are quite invigorating to me. Mille grazie!
Other “Japanese people and the city government think I am too stupid to know how to separate garbage even when given a cartoonish chart” – “Japanese obaasans inspect my garbage” – “The garbage I separate is all burned at the same incinerator anyway” – “Young Japanese people in my area don’t separate their garbage, but I am blamed because I am the foreigner.” for starters. The obsession with garbage is almost comic. Almost. Perhaps edit the choices to make it read “I don’t understand Japanese thinking ABOUT GARBAGE SEPARATION” and as a final line “Japanese people don’t tend to understand sarcasm.” But yes, it seems the survey didn’t bring up major REAL issues that affect our lives. .Police racial profiling. .Housing discrimination. .Or did I not see those choices? .A pet issue for me is maybe more leeway on vacation time, we can’t make an annual visit to the folks on a rainy Sunday afternoon. I takes a week. .Did they even TALK to any foreigners when they made this survey? (I think I would add that question to my response.) Or maybe this is the first step in such a process? Could be good. Nice to see they at least consider the possibility that neighbors and employers might discriminate against foreigners, and that the school system might not suit our kids, but of course, no room left for elaboration.
Ah, another thread on the Internet gone to hell because a few people think they know something about politics and that what they know entitles them to be annoying, know-it-all bullies. Sure, you’re wasting time here while they’re all out there writing public policy, but yeah, you know so much better than they do. You’ve got it all figured out. Why, the only thing stopping this economy from completely repairing is the fact that *you* aren’t in public office! But instead of writing your local politician about it or finding an effective way to circulate your opinions, you choose to bitch and whine on the comments section of a website! You’ve all sure proved your superiority.

I’m impressed, I have to say. Actually rarely do I encounter a blog that’s both educative and entertaining, and let me let you know, you will have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is outstanding; the difficulty is one thing that not sufficient people are talking intelligently about. I am very blissful that I stumbled throughout this in my seek for something relating to this.
The sense of wanting to assist, however not determining how as well as place, is one thing a variety of us are going through.
