The Biotic Baking Brigade is a loosely connected group〔 〕 of activists famous for throwing pies in the faces of such figures as Bill Gates, San Francisco mayors Willie Brown〔 〕 and Gavin Newsom,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SF Supervisor PIED At Re-Election Party/Biotic Baking Brigade )〕 anti-gay preacher Fred Phelps, economist Milton Friedman, Swedish King Carl Gustaf, former Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, conservative journalist William F. Buckley, former WTO head Renato Ruggiero, and Ann Coulter, among others. The group espouses a left-wing philosophy, with members also active in ecology, social justice, gay rights, animal rights, and feminist movements, with connections to groups like Earth First!, Food Not Bombs, and ACT UP.〔 〕 It opposes corporate neoliberalism as well as any institution or individual who commits "crimes against people and the land." Concerning the group, popular activist Jim Hightower has stated "The BBB's pies are the Boston Tea Party of our modern day, sending a serious message softly to the corporate oligarchy." Jello Biafra has similarly asked, "Is well placed humor one of the best protest tactics there is? The proof is in the pudding! Or should I saypie cream." Members have been tried for battery and assault as a result of their pieing.〔 ==See also== *List of people who have been pied 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Biotic Baking Brigade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
