Jet and The Vines Want the Seal Hunt to End

by Lara Sanders

IPB Image

Garage rock bands Jet and The Vines are famous for taking MTV by storm and making '70s rock cool again—no easy triumph. Since then, both bands have been working like crazy—touring, putting out albums, and securing sweet spots on the Spider-Man 3 soundtrack (go Jet!). But in peta2's opinion, the most impressive thing that these bands have done so far is join our campaign to put an end to the cruel slaughter of Canadian baby seals for fur.

Jet's Nick Cester, Mark Wilson, and Cam Muncey and The Vines' Brad Heald, Craig Nicholls, and Ryan Griffiths have joined thousands of other people in asking the Canadian government to put an end to the bloody slaughter. Although this year's hunt is over, we need to keep the pressure on to ensure that the hunt doesn't ever happen again!

Watch the video below to see why the hunt needs to be permanently ended, and then find out how to take action. Warning: This video is extremely graphic.

To make this year's Canadian seal hunt the last, join Jet, The Vines, and thousands of people in urging the Canadian government to end the annual slaughter of baby seals.

Craig apparently forgot how to spell his last name

unless he recently changed it to Wicholls and has forgotten to mention it to anyone

Craig obviously changed his name to Craig Wicholls. Or is it Craig Willolls? Nope, it's Willidls. blink.gif

See? Great minds think alike. tongue.gif

...Okay.

(I'll stick to my theory that Brad is a cheap rent boy who can't write or talk, though)
Feedums
Please. He's so obviously not talking because he knows he's mysterious that way and keeps the crazed fangirls (...me) begging for more.

My theory obviously makes more sense so I'm still sticking to it.

laugh.gif I thought that right away too tongue.gif

Anyhow, that picture alone crushed my spirits, if I watched that video I would probably start crying...I can't believe people could do this sad.gif Seriously. Usually the PETA people kinda scare me, but things like this make me glad that at least someone cares. There's no excuse to kill an animal so brutally and inhumanely....and just for it's FUR. Awful.

Aw damn, there's nothing funny about Ryan's signature.
Mia was right about Craig's though.. it's just his name written messy. I do the same, because my "SIGNATURE" changes every time. laugh.gif

But yeah, I signed. Usually I'm not for peta because of all the videos and stuff, but baby seal hunts are really cruel. :/

Nothing funny? I believe writing your own name as "Bra" is quite entertaining. mellow.gif Not to mention he probably wrote something obscene and ungodly in Arab instead of his last name. tongue.gif

But I still love him. wub.gif

Brad's signature is just ... smile.gif

So, Hamish supports the hunting of cute baby seals? confused0006.gif
craigmeister
I was wondering about the missing signatures. Maybe they said, "Look! No more room!"
But after seeing all that, I don't think twice about seeing Hamish in some seal cuffs or hats.

Guess Hamish would rather support PETA (People for the Eating of Tasty Animals)...

What do you mean, all the videos and stuff? The ones of naked people usually don't do it for me either ( tongue.gif ) but the ones inside factory farms and that are what got me interested in vegetarianism. I also have a book from the Farm Sanctuary...for a little bit of variety in source. I'm grateful for all their info and recipes and stuff, but not a heavy supporter. Controversy: The Virginian euthanisations; the pamphlets aimed at schoolchildren; the monetary support of the Earth Liberation Front, supposedly in the burnings too.


I think that Brad's 'signature' must only be "BH" because that could be described as merely a compact heaping of lines tongue.gif Even "Brad Heald" takes up more space than that.

The ones with animal killings and stuff. |:
Once they sent one out of a raccoon being skinned alive.
It's really fucking gross, but it kind of does get the point across.

Actually, if you look closely, you'll see that his signature resembles a butterfly pinned to a wall to a really uncanny level. I think he was trying to send a message out that someone made him sign this (I suspect Craig, he's da leader of da gang) and that in reality he actually enjoys torturing animals. But he can't write or use language at any level, so he tried to draw it. And failed miserably. It could also be that he didn't dare upset Craig because Craig is, well, pretty protective towards baby seals.

Thats one thing i don't like about this stuff...like i mean i am already convinced that clubing seals and killing other animals in odd ways is crule....thats why i'm on sites like that i mean people who don't care about that stuff wouldn't bother to go on those types of sites.

Besides, Hamish seems rather in favour of seal clubbing (as he didn't sign the petition) and I'm still sceptical of Brad's reasons to sign it. So in the worst case, Hamish and Brad (who have bonded in the couple of months so much they attend parties together ohmy.gif ) will visit Canada on their own and rock the country with bass and drums alone. Guitarists and lead singers are so passé anyway. tongue.gif

Meanwhile, Craig and Ryan can tour in Europe. As Hamish won't be there and the roadies will probably get stoned with some nice European drugs ( tongue.gif ) Craig and most importantly Ryan will have no protection so I'll be able to sneak in their tour bus and have my way with them. 490.gif
It is a solid plan, I reckon. tongue.gif Let's just hope no one reads this and freaks out. tongue.gif

The Vines Love Baby Seals Like What
Posted by Lara Sanders at May 21, 2007 3:30 PM

I just saw that The Vines recently posted a MySpace blog about signing peta2's Canadian seal hunt petition (along with Jet). Add them to your friends (if they aren't already), and comment on how much you support them and their love for baby seals! And if you haven't already, sign the petition to put an end to the Canadian seal hunt for good.

xoxo-Lara
