Fashion crime: fur-haters graffitti DK's house

Filed under: Style in the News, Celebrities with Style

Once again, anti-fur coalition forces have decided to set their sights on the home of fashion empress Donna Karan. This time, a group called the Paint Panthers decided that it would be a good idea to spray paint some messages to the designer on the road leading up to her house in the Hamptons. One message read "Bunny Butcher" in hot pink scrawl with an arrow pointing towards DK's house. Another featured a carton bunny and the message "I don't want to be a handbag."

If you remember, PETA sent a spy into Karan's Manhattan apartment back in February to pose as an intern and treat DK to a private showing of a graphic slaughterhouse film. PETA claims to have no involvement in the latest round of harassment, although they clearly support the action because they suck. PETA President Ingrid Newkirk had this to say:
"If Donna Karan stopped making clothes out of tortured bunnies, we'd be out of her life faster than you can say 'yoga mat,'"

You can check out some images of the graffiti attack here at PETA's website. We think it looks like something a group of middle schoolers would do, but commenters on the site seem to think that it's heroic. One left a comment saying "Awesome. I wish I had the guts to do things like that." We think: maybe it's a good thing that they don't have the guts, since many people have very strong opinions about people spray-painting their property.
