If the right did half the shit the left does there would be martial law.

The justice system is rigged. Whatever you do, make sure you are not identifiable. By that I mean only peaceful protests of course of course.

We are at a point where it is warranted during actual peaceful protests if you aren't far left. In Germany police use cameras to identify people who protest against vax mandates and lockdowns.

It's winter. Make sure you wear a hat, a mask (which ironically is now mandatory during protests) and generic clothing.

Still waiting for someone to take down a Floyd statue or monument. I know somebody vandalized one of them but that was nothing that couldn't be easily fixed.

It may be a long one. Brace yourself.

Rhian Graham, Milo Ponsford, Sage Willoughby and Jake Skuse found not guilty over act of public dissent during Bristol protest

The 'newspaper' can't even be honest. Not to mention that anyone who actually dissents from the ruling regime is immediately destroyed by its propagandists.

Your dissent is terrorism, their crime is dissent.

Three men and a woman have been found not guilty of criminal damage after toppling the statue

the four defendants did not contest their actions on 7 June 2020 but sought to argue they were justified, because the statue was so offensive.

They didn’t even deny they did it?? And the charges were still dropped?

Oh boy is our society fucked… fuck the judge, and fuck everyone who got these fuckers off. I guess this ruling is tantamount to saying anyone in the UK can tear down whatever property they find offensive now. Of course, if the property they damage isn’t offensive in ‘the right way’, they’ll be shit out of luck.

Meanwhile, leaving a ham sandwich in front of a mosque gets you put into prison with a bunch of goatfuckers to be murdered.

Guess we can expect a lot more statues to be toppled in the near future

But Liam Walker QC, representing Willoughby, said: “Each of these defendants were on the right side of history, and I submit, they were also on the right side of the law.

“Colston’s deeds may be historical but the continued veneration of him in this city was not. The continued veneration of him in a vibrant multicultural city was an act of abuse.”

Yep, you read that right. 'The right side of history' has now been cited as an actual defence in court, and inanimate objects can now turn abusive overnight.

Justice systems left unattended turn into anything but just

Its astounding how convinced the modern left is that they're already right.

They are the ones willing to use violence to get their political way. Typically those are the ones who get to write the history books too...

If you watch their post decision press conference I get the distinct feeling that they are actors in the same vein as Patsy Stevenson from the Everard vigil episode: Reclaimthesestreets

Of course they are - we don’t live in a free society anymore and if they’ll blatantly subvert justice like this what are they doing with the rest of Democracy?

There was never a doubt. It was just a formality to make it look like the justice system had a purpose anymore.
