At the moment, rap mogul Sean “Puffy” Combs is on trial for allegedly discharging a handgun in a New York City club. Combs claims he didn’t have a gun on him the night of the shooting, but several witnesses say they saw him fire off a round.
Regardless of how his trial turns out, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals maintains that Combs is guilty of murdering poor defenseless animals, and PETA activists have been protesting outside of the courthouse where his trial is taking place.
Among other ventures, Combs produces his own line of clothes under the brand name “Sean John” that prominently features Fur. Combs also regularly wears fur. According to PETA, its members have been showing up at the trial with signs reading, “Puffy: Accessory to Murder of Animals” and “Animals Killed for Your Fur Got the Death Penalty.”
No word on what Puffy thinks of his PETA protesters.
