An Alternative Protest To BP’s Oil Spill

Unless you were kidnapped a month and a half ago and just finally released, you probably know about the little oil issue BP is having in the Gulf of Mexico. They are calling it a “spill” but it should really be called an oil “gusher” since spill implies a small mishap in a confined area. This “spill” has prompted people to boycott BP and one facebook group suitibly named Boycott BP is reaching close to half a million members. Granted, a boycott is a good idea. But at this time most people are content with just sitting around and bitching about the problem. Some even venture out to protest in front of BP stations. This is all good and everything if you like waving at traffic and feeling like you’re doing something. But in the end, nothing is really accomplished. Enter Jonathan Fin. Jonathan decided he just couldn’t stand on the sidelines and watch anymore. His local station has been pretty quiet regarding the spill so he figured he would bring the spill to them. The result is a great piece of comedy that plays out.
