So when your brother asks you what kind of spray paint to use on animals, because he is afraid of injuring them, is it wrong to tell him?

Well, he's been my brother for 22 years, and I am rarely able to counsel him out of things. I can show him better wasys to do it that result in no property damage or a decreased chance of jail time, but telling him "No" makes me an authority figure, and "one of them" thus to be distrusted and thus I am unable to help the situation at all. He knows I'll be very, very pissed if he hurts animals and he shoudln't fuck directly with animals since there is no way for the animals to be part of the establishment. Has anyone figured out my brother is an anarchist punk yet? Yes, I've tried to explain the realities of that sort of largescale situation, but he can't see it. I'm already a traitor for working for the government. He is under the grave misunderstanding that I do nothing for my money.

I don't want to know what the spraypaint is for. Obvious mischief. He asked if it came in fluourescent, yes, it does. Basically slaughterhouses need a non-toxic, animal friendly way to mark the cows, so they make this non-toxic spray paint to tag them. Depressing, but strangely useful.

If I had to guess what he was doing, it would likely involve spraying something like letters on cows in a field while they are sleeping. I could be wrong.

lol... careful or you could become an accomplice to a crime at some point :P

I think it's odd that the slaughterhouses would care about a non-toxic paint at the end - after all most cows spend their lives being pumped full of artificial hormones etc. Like something we put on their skin the day of death is going to have much effect on the crap already inside them :P
