Maybe I'd feel different if the cause was for sick kids or mistreated animals... But I still think it was inappropriate... Although I do understand the whole point of Paris Hilton making more front page news than genocide... Which is sad but part of our society.

Overall, if I had to pick sides I'd go with Louis Vuitton... I dont have much sympathy for the artist because they did ask her to stop.
But in a round about way that is exactly what they are doing. They are trying to stop these big companies from investing in Darfur investments, thus making the government stand up and take notice. In some countries, only the loss of money makes people revaluate how they are doing things. Because at this point they see no problem with the treatment of their people. Makes me sick.
