I truly thought this to be hilarious, if not a touch tragic.

Over the weekend multiple santas in Auckland, New Zealand, protested the 'commercialisation of Christmas' by going on a drunken, delinquent-style march through the city's streets. The 'Santas' goal was to heighten public awareness surrounding said commercialisation of the Christmas holiday and to disrupt, if possible, merchants from flagrantly profiting off the back of what should be a religious, and or, family holiday first and foremost.

As the old cliche goes: only in New Zealand!

:lol:

P.S Alltaken was arrested in a Santa suit taking a drunken wizz out the front of a McDonalds franchise.

Your kidding!

Wow.

It was like that movie Jackass getting a bunch of copycats. Or when Fightclub was released and a bunch of those sprung up too. No doubt, the funny, but tragic movie 'Bad Santa' has inspired some this year to be boobs even if not relevant in this case.

Merry Christmas, Tomsmart styles! :D

They're called "Santarchy". As names for groups go, that's not half bad. Plus the fuzz'll have a hard time identifying the the culprits.

"Well, he had a red suit on, he had a white beard, a big stomach and said "ho ho ho" a lot" :?
