每次汽油暴涨,非裔市民反应感受特别强烈。一名女子发起「吻我囤部」(Kiss My
Gass!)抗议,在好莱坞一家艾克森美孚加油站举牌。(美联社)
刚成立的一个草根团体五名非裔示威者13日在好莱坞一座加油站高举标语示威,抗议汽油
价格高涨。他们的标语使用「粗口双关语」,看了令人喷饭。
该团体计画展开一项全国性的抵制活动,每月针对不同的石油公司。第一个选中目标是「
艾克森美孚公司」(Exxon Mobil),13日「黑色星期五」在好莱坞一家艾克森美孚加油站
示威,该加油站每加仑普通无铅汽油价格已达4.75元。
这 个团体取名「吻我囤部」(Kiss My Gass!),把「吻我屁股」(kiss my ass)的粗
口和「汽油」(gas)做「巧妙」连结。另一标语「以工代油」(Will work for gas
money),则由「以工代赈」(Will work for food)而来。
艾克森美孚公司发言人贝丝‧史耐德(Beth Snyder)说,这是该团体的言论自由,但希
望顾客不会因为示威活动而受到干扰。
30岁的洁丝美‧卡尼克(Jasmyne Cannick)说,她发起「吻我囤部」来传达对汽油暴涨
的怒火。
目前全美各地都有稀奇古怪的油价抗议活动,好莱坞的抗议只是其中之一。
阿拉巴马州有数十名青少年改骑自行车,到十哩外的乡下高中上学。一名肯塔基州标志制
造商人,已开始骑马为客户安装标志。一名印第安那州男子则因在一家便利商店屋顶高唱
抗议歌被捕。
南加州消费者在网路发起抗议油价飙涨

南加州汽车俱乐部13日指出,一些对油价飙涨不愿坐视不理的消费者,已经在网路上发起
一项取名为「Kiss My Gass」的抗议活动,影响所及全美各大城市纷纷有人加入。 需要
解释的是「Kiss My Gass」的第三个单字「Gas」(汽油)多了一个「s」,一旦把前面的「
G」去掉,是美国社会有欠文雅的一句话。
这个抗议团体说,以南加州的洛杉矶为例,13日每加仑普通无铅汽油的平均价格已经来到
4.579美元,比1周前上涨了20美分,比两周前上涨了40美分,与去年同期相比暴增40%。
抗议团体的做法是透过网路传达讯息,在选择一家特定的能源品牌後,鼓励驾驶人拒绝到
其所经营的连锁加油站加油,藉此让石油公司感受消费者的不满。 截至目前,第一个遭到
抗议的对象是全球规模最大能源上市公司「艾克森美孚」经营的连锁加油站。如果油价继
续飙涨,「Kiss My Gass」抗议团体也不排除未来经由网路发动消费者走上街头。

LOS ANGELES — A handful of protesters delivered a message Friday to big oil
companies: "kiss my gas!"
The five protesters representing a newly formed grassroots group chanted and
held signs reading, "Will work for gas money."
They were outnumbered, however, by media at a Mobil station in Hollywood,
where regular gas was selling for $4.75 a gallon.
The group hopes to launch a nationwide boycott targeting a different oil
company each month. Its first target was Exxon Mobil Corp.
Beth Snyder, a spokeswoman for the company, said it respected the group's
right to freedom of speech but hoped customers weren't interrupted by the
protest.
Jasmyne Cannick, 30, said she founded the "Kiss My Gass!" campaign to channel
"road rage" about rising fuel prices.
The protest was the latest in a series of often-quirky demonstrations against
pump prices around the nation.
In Alabama, dozens of youngsters have been bicycling up to 10 miles to their
rural high school. A Kentucky sign-maker has begun riding his horse to
business calls and an Indiana man was arrested for belting out a gas protest
song from the roof of a convenience store.
