He could teach The Edge a thing or two.

May is a soppy old hippy with skewed priorities. He should be more concerned about the welfare of his fellow man that some borderline parasitic vermin in his garden. He has the moral values of an eight year old girl.

Can't believe he's still sporting that ridiculous barnet, either. The man is a joke.

Congratulations on your well-informed, beautifully expressed opinion. You deserve to feel very proud of yourself! Unlike that talentless, selfish "vermin"-protecting hippie, Brian May. Yes, boo for Brian May!

I've always liked his playing with Queen.
I will remember him as a great guitarist for sure !
For me, in the top ten.

That's great (what May is doing). But, what's with comment about Edge? Is he an animal hater, or something? Seriously, I am just asking what the Edge could learn from this...

Rocker - sorry, I was referring more to the environmental angle of May making his space available while Edge has been trying for years to mansionize a HUGE chunk of mailbu so he can build not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 but FIVE freaking mansions on a threatened, rugged ridgeline. That clear?

Ah, yes. I was simply ignorant of this mansionization effort. Yep, clear. I DO like Edge as a player (he's simple in an economical but powerful way that has always somehow reminded me of Townshend. And I guess that's the only way I've ever even considered him. Don't know much about him outside of his playing, really.) But yeah...it's clear.

Although...to be honest...as a non-Californian who is simply not up on this stuff...I'm surprised there are 5 undeveloped "lots" on Malibu beachfront that are available at this point to even be mansionized.

Is that still going on? I heard they have to pretty much blow up half of a mountainside to build it.

Moral values of an eight year old girl? What? You're going to have to share whatever it is you're smoking.

May isn't doing anything for the environment, conservation, or anything that's threatened. What he is doing is animal rights extremism and his comments show he would love to have it imposed on everyone. When you get assaulted by one of those lunatics for eating meat, or wearing fur, or maybe just for using a medicine that was developed using animal research, you won't think it's so good Hbwriter.

Can you please quote the specific comments which, as you mention, prove this "lunatic"'s "animal rights extremism"? That'd be awesome!

That's not exactly what I said but I'll have a go anyway:

“Badgers have been in this country longer than we have, they've been here for literally millions of years minding their own business ... we think that we're the only species on the planet that matters, which is obviously self evidently not true,"

- sounds like he has some kind of bitterness towards the human race doesn't it?

"We are animals and we're obviously quite important — but the rest of the animals are quite important too," he continued. "I don't think we have the right to treat animals the way we do."

- equates animals to human beings and then suggests we systematically are somehow treating animals wrong - no doubt because he feels we should treat them just like human beings. Extremist. Lunacy.

Alright then, May really wants to be a Badger spinning smiley sticking its tongue out

It's not lunacy to realize that man (and woman smiling smiley) have become so dominant that other species can sometimes have a hard time because of it.

Oh please, not even close. You see it because you want to.

Brian May has always looked like a hippie. So his views on things are just consequential to those of a hippie. There is nothing wrong with that of course. Just typical.

Beautifully done y'all. My only concern was I was asleep while the antics were taking place!

Why is someone a nutter for suggesting we shouldn't cull wild animals. There is still no proof of the spread of bovine TB.

There is according to the British Veterinary Association:

Maybe Brian May knows more about it than they do.
