Re: Wanton Vandalism

Extinction Rebellion are just a bunch of un-educated idiots, regardless of their education background. It's all about climate change and it is a well known fact that the UK is one of the lowest producers of climate affecting gases amongst the developed countries of the world. The USA, China, India and Russia are the biggest climate killers but yet these Extinction Rebellion fools keep harping on about the UK not doing enough.

Even if the UK was able to produce ZERO climate affecting gases, it would make absolutely no difference and have absolutely no impact because the 4 countries combined produce just over 60% of climate killing gases (the factual figures are available online, just go search for them like i did).

The ONLY reason Extinction Rebellion do not protest in any of those 4 countries to the same level that they do in the UK is because those 4 countries allow the lawful use of guns and Extinction Rebellion are scared that the guns would be used on them.

Hi

The bunch in Shrewsbury were not the great unwashed.

They were middle aged and elderly and well dressed.

The chattering classes.

Wonder if they'll actually get prosecuted this time? A good stretch in gaol is well deserved IMO.

I agree entirely Judd. Like most people I cannot see the point in their wanton behaviour although I must confess that whilst there are some genuine protesters in the group I can't help but feel they've been infiltrated by anarchists and the like, just out to stir up trouble wherever and whenever they can. Why people let themselves be brainwashed into joining organisations like these and behave it in this fashion is beyond me.
