"The California Supreme Court has banned the sale of soccer cleats popularized by soccer star David Beckham and other goods made from kangaroo leather.But the statewide prohibition — the only one of its kind in the nation — may be short-lived."
I would just like to say that kangaroos are the squirrels of the outback: kinda annoying, sometimes aggressive, overpopulated due to their known predators becoming scarce, dirty, and known to carry the Bubonic plague (okay, that last one is just for squirrels). But seriously... this is, like, if we made things out of squirrel leather (cringe) and Australia was all like, "Oh no! Cruelty to animals! Shame on you United States! We bannish thee (well, we banish thy squirrel-leather products)!" I mean, ew.
If David Beckham wants to wear rodent leather products, then let him.
Again. Ew.

said...It's the certain size/cuteness rule. We like to go all self-righteous on people for killing things over a size and level of cuteness, like Panda bears or furry white seals. (You never really see anyone giving a shit about the blubbery, rubber tire looking grown-up versions being shredded in two by hungry sharks, but I digress) I do find kangaroos cute, but I agree with wearing them. It's their springy bounce I find endearing.
I would however sport some squirrel pumps. Very nice.
