Default People actually fall for this BS?


It should be an absolute defense from prosecution that someone used force to stop these brainwashed terrorists. Once those ladies started hammering on the glass, they should have been stopped.

Just Stop Oil protesters have targeted the Magna Carta in their latest environmental stunt.

Two protesters, aged 85 and 82, cracked the glass case surrounding the royal charter at the British Library in central London on Friday morning.

The library holds two of the four surviving copies of the Magna Carta, with the others at Lincoln Cathedral and Salisbury Cathedral.

Rev Dr Sue Parfitt, an 82-year-old Anglican priest from Bristol, and Judy Bruce, an 85-year-old retired biology teacher from Swansea, entered the British Library at 10.40am.


After they cracked the glass, Rev Parfitt and Mrs Bruce glued their hands together, demanding an emergency plan to stop oil by 2030.

A Just Stop Oil spokesman said: “Clause 39 of the Magna Carta is one of four clauses still enshrined in UK common law, a so-called ‘golden passage’ that states: ‘No free man is to be arrested, or imprisoned, or in any other way ruined, except by the lawful judgement of his peers or by the law of the land.’

“Contrast that with civil law as it stands in 2024, where corporations are buying private laws in the form of injunctions that circumvent the people’s rights to a trial by jury for speaking out against the crimes of oil companies.”

I do not subscribe to the theory that such actions are better than attacks on people and more morally justified. Destroying a car or any mass-manufactured item does not subtract from humanity's cultural inheritance. Destroying unique works of art or precious cultural artifacts directly attacks humanity itself.

While these women failed in their goal, I would treat them as I would treat any person who attempted a terrorist act. And, to be clear, if they were likely to be successful, I would support using deadly force to stop them.

Yes, I would kill somebody to protect a culturally significant artifact without hesitation. These artifacts belong to humanity itself, now and into the future. It doesn't matter what country, culture, or religion the works belong to. Destroying anything of great cultural significance is an act of barbarity.

Just Stop Oil, by using these tactics, has declared war on humanity, quite literally. It is not our corporeal forms that define us as human beings, but rather being part of the great tapestry of human cultures. This is why we marvel at cave paintings from Neolithic times, literature and artifacts from ancient Egypt, Greek urns, and great works in museums.

We have an obligation to our descendants to defend their cultural inheritance.

We treat these terrorists far too leniently, as if they were spraying graffiti on a gas station wall or writing bawdy sayings in a bathroom. Handing out a fine and chastising them is atrocious.

Treat them like terrorists. That is what they are. And if they ever get close to actually destroying something of cultural significance, shoot them. Not because they are wrong on the issue--they have every right to be and spread their vile propaganda--but because they use terrorist tactics.

Morons. Notice they don't go anywhere near China's embassy in London. None of these areswipes do. For them it's a religion, a cult, and like all cults, the reality of the real world is mentally blocked out - the reality that China is not only running 1000 coal-fired stations but is building 700 more in China and around the world.

NPR says so!

https://www.npr.org/2019/04/29/71634...=1579949224074

Not just China, but India, Indonesia, all Africa - they laugh at the West's gullibility and it's FULL STEAM AHEAD! with affordable oil-based energy.

Boys and girls - there isn't an elephant in the room, there's a whole ****ing HERD of them!

So let me get this straight.

Suddenly you are FOR the rights of the individual?

You do realize this runs contrary to Socialism, and Socialism’s ultimate goal, Communism, right?

Yep

Either that, or he doesn’t really understand what the Magna Carta was and did.

These two ladies are no different than the Taliban that blew up the Buddha statues in Afghanistan. Destroying history, for the sake of destroying history.

I'm not a Buddhist, don't know any, but I certainly didn't want those big ass Buddha's blown up. That's our world heritage, as is the Magna Carta. And the Magna Carta is the heritage of White people specifically, but of the whole world, just as those Buddhas were.

These two old biddies are definitely old enough, educated enough to KNOW what they are doing is wrong, an attack not just on White civilization, but on the whole world. It's just crazy. I can't understand it on any level.

Don't they know at their advanced age that their action will not change anything? Oil companies are the future.

Look around you right now; everything is made of oil.
