Idiots

Literally idiots. Look up artist Guillermo Vargas on facebook and you'll see countless groups protesting his "cruel" work in which a dog was "left to starve in a gallery".

Me, I'm a student, I love art that creates some sort of controversy so I was intrigued by this and as usual most of the controversy was in people's heads, in fact Animal Rights group Humane Society of the United States have clearly stated that the dog was in a state of starvation when captured and did not die in the gallery, in fact it escaped after one day.

The artist himself has noted that none of the so called "caring" members of the public actually tried to do anything about the dog, despite their apparent concern, clearly highlighting the hypocrisy of just about everyone ever.

There's plenty of starving animals on the street which no-one gives a shit about but the minute someone presents this fact in the public arena they are branded a sicko.



That's my two penneth. Everyone else can go away.
