I don't even know what to say! Just goes to show that they don't research anything before jumping on the bandwagon with their PETA friends to protest things they don't even understand.

This is beyond stupid.  Python is a programming lang.  It has nothing to do with snakes.

What next?  Wait, don't answer that.  :93:

Is it only me, or do others feels as well that PeTA might be nothing but a nudist organiszation in trhe guise of an anima rights organization to get away with any kind of nudity in chaste America?

Part of me says, "Please tell me this is a joke" and the other part just sighs.

Reminds me of something a retired teacher friend of mine said to a student once when he was subbing at the school he retired from.

"If ignorance is bliss you must be the happiest kid in school"

He said the kid just looked at him and walked away.  Seems PeTA, and it's clones, should do a bit of research first, but let the fools be fools it only shows how missinformed they really are.

PETA Targets Computer Programmers With String Of Bizarre Protests
Author: Bryan Woods



Django, the company best known for its agile development framework that competes directly with Ruby on Rails, is perhaps known secondly for their monthly programmer get-togethers.

The parties are usually a great deal of fun, and many in the Python* community in Lawrence, Kansas bring along their projects for debugging and showing off.

Fun is one word to describe what happened at last night’s hackathon.  Bizarre is another.

As more and more people started to show up after the doors were opened around 8PM, a group of roughly 25 to 30 white women began to form around the office, dressed in ubiquitous trench coats.

Then, at exactly 8:15, the women undressed from their trenchcoats and stood wearing signs reading “How many lives just for a coat?” and “Snakes are Animals, and Animals are People!”

The perplexed programmers came back outside when they saw what was happening.

“What the hell is going on?  This is fucking incredible.” Jacob Kaplan-Moss said.  Kaplan-Moss is the chief architect of Django and said nothing like this had ever happened before.  “They’re all naked, and these chicks don’t shave anything!”

I decided to put on my best investigative journalist face and asked a woman holding a sign (pictured above) what they were protesting.

“We know what they’re doing in there.  They’re hacking pythons.  It’s barbaric and we won’t leave until the last snake has been saved.”

When I asked Guido Van Rossum, the inventor of Python, what he thought of the women protesting, he had questions of his own.  “What’s a woman?” he asked.

*Python is a programming language

* H$U$

Thinking of donating to H$U$?

Someone who takes Wendy Malick or Wayne Pacelle up on their infomercial request for "just $19 dollars a month" will pay HSUS $228 over the course of a year. Of that, just $1.03 will reach a pet shelter.
