Wow, no. If they feel that strongly about it, it seems to me they should be protesting the auction, not giving them money.

I'm of the opinion that it's wrong, but it's one of those things that will happen no matter how much you don't like it. There was an episode of "Cracker" where Fitz basically covers that same territory: If you look out and see someone who got famous from working hard and being talented, you can get famous just like they are through the simple expedient of putting a bullet in them.

The sad thing is, it works pretty damn well. In a perfect world, this kind of crap would be beneath people's notice, but human beings have never behaved that way and never will.
