Did Paul request it sent in this manner? If not, HOW is HE the bad guy?

Look at all the people on this forum with bass guitars made from exotic woods and nobody questions the ecological impact of that in terms of deforestation as well as the exploitation of indigenous people.
Few people bat an eye about all those gas guzzling hummers either.
There are much bigger issues to focus on than the automotive logistics of an ex-Beatle. |

hybrids are useless, there are cars that consume much less petrol. it's a marketing scam imo and the especially the rich and famous are buying into it.

Do you have any idea how many micro organisms McCartney is DIRECTLY responsible for the death of? Just by the act of respiration- he is inspiring THOUSANDS of living microbes that are drown in the alveoli of his lungs.
Criminal. Criminal I tell you.
Pick on him if he deserves it- but this is nothing. Stumpy got a huge chunk of Paul, he doesn't need to be picked on for this...

Seriously, this is worse than if we'd caught him slaughtering baby kittens for lawn mulch.

I did like the yellow submarine movie though  |

It was not clear if McCartney knew the vehicle would be sent to him via air freight rather than by ship. Rumbold said it seems likely the singer was an innocent victim of a mistake made by Lexus executives.
