Leonardo Di Caprio, Bob Geldof and and Mikhail Gorbachev were among the dignitaries momentarily blocked by protesters as they tried to enter BMW's high-octane "Cinema for Peace" charity gala in Berlin last night.

  • haha! that's hilarious!

    "you can't sit here"

    "but if we move we can't protest."

    this is how protests ought to be. harmless and funny. now we just need more people to join them!

  • It is a protest to "making" cars. Since cars exist, like a whole lot, the process of making more in only a business model and not a necessity. Therefore, when BMW pretended to do it for peace, they protested.

  • LoL Survivaball really is good for ANY situation.. even avoiding apprehension .. just turtle up and roll away..! xD

  • ...................BMW should return to F1 ;)

  • @djole777 Yeah, right when it gets realy uncomfortable the looney line is crossed. You support saving the planet but not for the price of comfort. Well, I guess you are right in establishing boundaries.

  • @djole I'm glad you like many Yes Men stunts. I think you miss something here. They did not randomly target BMW. BMW was, in a fit of hypocrisy, staging a gala event for very rich people in the name of "peace." There is nothing "looney" [sic] in saying that cars cause wars. It's evident. The most visible wars for the continuation of car culture are the oil wars, in Iraq, Lybia, etc. Oppression and violence secures the raw material for cars. Finally, cars themselves cause great violence.

  • So typical of greenies.. they can not help but cross the line of sanity and lose moderate audience like me. Bhopal stunt, you had my support, US chamber of commerce, you had my support , Exxon Mobil you had my support , NY Times Iraq war ends you had my support... STOP MAKING CARS, CARS CAUSE WAR.. aaaaand you gone over the Looney Line. Its just like when i went to a Green peace rally to protest Whale hunts, and then some hippie chick gave two hr lecture on going Vegan to save planet... I left

  • isn't BMW not the car branch who doesn't still wanna pay the poor jewish labour they used during the worldwar 2 ???

  • @victor9245 Enjoy your oil wars sir! Well played, kudos!

  • Well have BMW stopped making cars you fucking yesmen faggots? No!!!

    Just got my BMW 335d. Love it!!

  • @Physco219 I think the yesmen have on their website steps on how to get involved in global protests? I'm not too sure though haha.
