@kim_harding I have no opinion about the lorry driver and I've not read the article, but the enviro-hippies all had previous convictions for related crimes, and clearly scoffed at suspended or short sentences and community service. Their sentences, at least, seem reasonable.

@DrHyde Maybe you should try informing yourself before making ignorant comments. Otherwise, you just come across as a Troll.

Or perhaps you think that the deaths of indent people are excitable, whereas peaceful protest is not.

Either way, please stay way from my timeline.

@kim_harding @DrHyde informing oneself about what, dumbfuck protesters being repeat offenders? Story as old as time, they block a major street, piss off everyone, cause collateral damage by blocking emergency services, creating a stressful and polluting jam and making people late for work/train/date/plane/whatever, they get a slap on the wrist with a more serious suspended sentence and then proceed to ignore that, go back to do the exact same thing and rinse and repeat until they get actual jail time. At which point people like you show up to cry about "peaceful protesters" getting jail time.

Oh, and on the topic of "informing yourself", Just Stop Oil was confirmed to be partially funded by a family of an oil magnate. They're so stupid and harmful to their cause, the actual oil lobby helps fund them to ruin the public opinion of environmental activists, and you defend them for free.

@DrHyde @kim_harding Enviro-hippies? Dude, they’re trying to save your habitat. I mean talk about opening your mouth and removing all doubt…

@aral @DrHyde @kim_harding I have not been following this story, but I've never understood why protestors use blocking traffic as a tactic. It just pisses off a lot of people potentially on your side.

@theothersimo @aral @DrHyde @kim_harding uh yeah they are. If protestors blocked the road and made me late for a doctor's appointment, or anything else I would be highly annoyed even though I'm definitely want our governments to get off their collective asses and really do something serious about the climate emergency. Ditto for the people vandalizing art and monuments. Not all publicly is good publicity.

@DrHyde
For making Zoom calls discussing how to raise awareness to try and have a livable biosphere ? 5 years jail?
Fcuking hell.
