My bad.... Get ready for blood to shoot out of your eyes. But I fear, some of you may agree with this.
*slaps forehead* What in the H E double hockey sticks are people thinking? Criminal behavior is ok so long as there is a good "excuse"?
:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Some people...
What I find interesting is the idea expressed in the article that it is all right to commit a crime in order to prevent a larger and greater crime.
Perhaps it's about time that deliberate pollution (as in the pending decision to build another coal-fired plant in the UK) was seen as a larger and greater crime.
And hey - no one could pay ME to go up a stack that size. These weren't kids spraying graffiti on buildings.
If you agree that there is a greater and larger crime here, then this is ok.
I kinda like it. :cool:
"Coal fired plants"......
There's a piece of equipment that's almost as misunderstood as nuclear power plants.
With modern scrubber equipment, the pollution from a coal fired plant is minimal.
Want to prevent massive releases of greenhouse gasses? Find a way to cap volcanoes.
LOL, which team?Quote:

Civilized society cannot endure that. The RULE of law must be the RULE of law.
What is most utterly shocking to me is that the jury who gave this ruling is SO brainwashed that they could not even consider the precedent being set and just what that means.
I hope they have jury nullification in the UK.
If the ruling stands, ELF is going to have a field day in the UK.
PS - Homicide is ok if the person killed is holding a weapon (a machine gun, say) that could wipe out quite a few people in a few seconds.
I only wish that coal-fired plants were all up to standard in their cleaning and scrubbing maintenance. There are a few in Alberta, and I ought to look into that.
And when we run out of coal?....
