Artist's Catcopter Causes a Stir

derekmead writes "I'm not sure that Dutch artist Bart Jansen had political commentary in mind when he created the Orvillecopter — combining a stuffed cat with a quadrotor, and naming it after Orville Wright — but indeed it's art, whose meaning will lie in the eye of the beholder. And for those that say stitching up a dead animal around the guts of a helicopter and flying it around is 'sick,' what of the massive drone industry, which, more than just producing a symbol, actually is creating flying death?"

Me.

I'm wearing leather.

I think it's tasteless to use a cat because I think they are cute. He can do whatever he likes, I just think it is crass. I would have used a dog, and probably would have upset dog lovers. They would also have the right to complain and try to stop me.

So what confuses you here?

>>>go after people who have expressed in both word and deed they want to kill us.

Take a look at the youtube video of the little girl whose jaw was blown-off by a drone. In fact there are thousands of videos just like that. You really think these little kids deserve to be shot all to hell, and their bodies permanently damaged, just becasue "I'ma skeered little american"

Big. Fat. Pussy. That's what you Americans are. No better then the Natsi scum that broke into homes and shot kids "for sport".
Americans are the new Holocaust.
