Activists in Germany glued themselves to the road, and they might need amputation of hand

There is not something that you can get power out of without exchanging for it.

Every form of power you have you're going to have to damage something

Yes, I suppose this is true.
 
Anone know if the activists lost their skin? After all, they did have skin in the game.
 
Just look at how right wingers cackle with glee at human suffering.

This is the kind of story that Rightie lives for, if theres a human in pain thats when Righty is at his gleeful happiest.

Despicable IMO.

If someone else glued them to the pavement, they would have my sympathy.
DIY....nah.
 
I understand that they're stupid and they hate their own cause.
I think more and more they want to see them bleed.

Being annoying and stupid is not a way to get people on your side. It'll actually alienate them so what we need to do is tell the stupid people to close their mouths so they don't make everyone else look bad.
More desperate than stupid. Agred that there are better ways to get the4 message across.
 
I'm not saying the police shouldn't hold anybody I'm seeing the criminal justice system should bring criminal justice upon these criminals. That's the whole point of it right?

It might stop if it does that will be better for everybody. Because the stupids aren't destroying the movement they aren't irritating people that couldn't be bothered to the point where they are bothered so it's win win if they pay the price for the criminal act.
They are not criminals. they are protestors which is the right of any citizen to protest. It is just unfortunate that they choose a way that disrupts other peoples activities. At best they are charged with a minor offence of disruption. If we call them criminals then by reference we are saying it is a crime to speak out against things that we disagree with.

I would argue that they are.

you can't get out of consequences for criminal act when you call it a protest.

So criminal.

no we're saying it's a crime to glue yourself to a runway or to a street. I don't know how that's not a crime and you're never going to convince me in a million years that that's speech

Rationalize it all you want. They are criminals. I would have left them there to suffer from their own doing if there was a viable way to redirect flights.

Made the claim that gluing yourself to the runway and disrupting aviation traffic is speech and everyone should be allowed to do that, and if you're not that means you're not allowed to speak.

Criminal behavior even in the form of protest is still criminal behavior.

Yep.

When you disrupt the lives of others who depend on transportation, you are just one sorry piece of shit. Need to be put in a cage so it can never happen again.

What if there was an organ transplant going to someone, and they lost their life because of the delay?

They have started doing this I think because they're being funded. By who is still a question.

They protested for years saying hey we need to pay attention to this and nobody gave them a second thought and it pissed them off now we're dealing with the revenge for being ignored.

Imagine if there's people that said the rapture was coming God's going to pick up all of the righteous and leave the sinners behind and they glued themselves to the streets when people stopped listening to them.

I don't think anybody would defend them because they're in a different religion.

Extinction rebellion and just stop oil are absolutely cults that are part of the climate change religion.
 
I accesses the study they used to make the claim. The study compared isotope data in ice cores to carbon 14 dating. The flaw here is that when you have CO2 sequestered in the oceans being released at higher rates , and consumed by the plants, it will be older CO2 than the C14 created in the atmosphere. It will be CO2 with no C14, making the proxy data using carbon dating appear older than it really is. They use a correction, but there is no way to know what a correction for 8,000+ years needs to be.

So protesting about things you think wrong should be a crime. Good ol' freedom loving americans.

Agreed they should be charged with a minor offense of disturbing the peace. But then that is what they deliberately set out to do so they really should not complain if charged as such.

Completely understandable from a person who has many times demonstrated that he does not give a shit about anything but himself.

depends on how you protest if you protest by damaging property and holding up traffic yeah that absolutely is a crime or should be.
Good ol' freedom loving americans.
never saw in the Constitution where you can get away with criminal behavior because you say your protesting.

So now you think they should be charged for protesting make up your mind you're back and forth on this one?

True and the crime would be a minor offense of disturbing the peace.

That's because the american constitution is complete shit that should have been thrown in a museum long ago.

I am solid. It is a minor crime of distubence , Considering they deliberately set out to disturb then they have no cause to complain about such a charge.
