There is nothing like a great video that tells it like it is on a Monday morning. UnF–kTheGulf.com says it all. Kind of like a cup of Joe to get the blood running through your body. In this case, F’in mad blood since our gulf is running black not blue because BP can’t shut the F’in hole.
Watch the video below which features a cross section of people mad as hell using the F-bomb to take BP to task.
Oil Spill Charity “F-Bomb-A-Thon” from UnF–kTheGulf.com on Vimeo.
According to the press release from one of the co-producers, Luke Montgomery,
“The no-holds-barred clip shows people wearing a black T-shirt that reads “UNF–K THE GULF” and cutting loose on BP in a way that millions of Americans only wish that leaders, from the president to news anchors, had the guts to do. The T-shirts are sold on the group’s website for $13 each, with $5 going directly to four Gulf wildlife rescue and environmental charities. The site allows the public to vote on how the funds are spent.”
Montgomery and Nate Guidas, producers of the video, hope to raise $25,000 for the sale of the shirts.
But why the F word, Montgomery?
“While some may find their approach offensive, Montgomery responds saying “What’s truly offensive is not a four-letter word but the lack of response from the federal government, dolphins blowing oil out of their f–king blowholes and BP blocking reporters from the beaches they f–ked up.” Guidas adds, “Our video shows people calling it like they see it and the T-shirt let’s people do good and look good doing it. Who knew that by putting on a T-shirt you could be helping take oil off of birds and sea turtles?”
So, what can you do?
Buy a T-shirt. They are $13, in which $5 is donated to the clean-up cause.
