Obama has killed...

[Ginnipe]

*sarcasticaly* But Obama is such a celebrity, anything he does HAS to be world news. *unsacasticaly* I can't beleive people have that little of a life to care about a fly. And what does PETA mean, I can't remember what it stands for.

P.E.T.A - People eating tasty animals.

At least obama killed the fly, Gordan browns 20ft tongue wouldve eaten the bugger.

Everybody loves him so much for whatever stupid reasons, that the only "bad" thing the media can say about him is that he kills flies. This is news? Pathetic. And PETA is pathetic too, lol.

Wait this is serious?

 

[Simalacrum]

...a fly. And people, such as PETA, have critcised him for it. I don't see what the fuss is about. Flys are annoying little buggers that can carry disease, and serve no visible purpose (if there is one could someone PM me about it).

So what's your opinion?

Also, feel free to add tales to this thread where any sort of group has over-reacted to a trivial event.

link pls, I HAVE to see this.

believe, him, The Guardian (a British news paper) had an ENTIRE ARTICLE on the matter... apparenlty some people are praising him because "he could kill a fly"

Only the American media could spin this into a story, I feel like we're in a side-story for a bad episode of The West Wind

The ACLU is favored towards the criminal but let's stay on topic. Fly swatting obama! I can see the marketting deals. Obama fly swatters, obama bug zappers...the list goes on.

Presenting...the President Obama action figure! With real fly-swatting action!

 

[kkthegrunt]

I'd buy one.

 

[ajb924]

As much as i hate Obama... Really PETA? Really?

 

[Abedeus]

Oh, cool, I've seen the video...

That was pretty impressive. He managed to stay cool and kill that son of a ***** in the middle of an interview.

no its actually not, its the media blowing a joke PETA made out of proportion, they jokingly sent him a humane fly trapper, and then the NEWS went crazy like they do and said PETA were calling him a monster, and a disgrace. I have a thread up about this with what PETA said about the issue. I am not a fan of PETA but they really didn't do anything wrong here.

 

[Ghostkai]

For every fly PETA don't swat, I'm now going to go out of my way to swat 3.

And seriously, +1 for Obama.

I doubt it was a joke, as fucking idiotic as PETA is.

 

[Xvito]

Woah! There aren't many people that can swat flies like that... A mosquito maybe, but a fly...

 

[WeevilStew]

Peta has gone too far. "Oh no a fly got killed." Big whoop. Flies get killed all the time. They're annoying, filthy and almost impossible to catch. If anything, I think Obama should be praised for his quick reflexes. Obviously, Mr. Miagi has nothing left to teach him.

This, pretty much. No one is looking for a fight except the media.

Also, +1 awesome to Obama for that sweet shot =D

no it was, everyone hates Fox News until its about something like this "I DONT TRUST THE NEWS, OMG THE NEWS SAID PETA WANTED OBAMA DEAD, THE NEWS MUST BE RIGHT"

they sent him the fly trapper in pure satire. Also about PETA calling Fish seakittens that was also satire seeing as people eat anything they don't find cute.
I AM NOT A MEMBER OF PETA, and I normally do not encourage there crazy antics, but not Everything they do is a direct attack.

 

[The_Echo]

I commend Obama for his courageous act of pest control.
