Thanks to him, there's a little less carbon now.
Did they die?
One can only hope
This reminds me of the story of the Chinese generals: Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
Is that the lore that the penalty for returning late is also death?
The very same.
Both Chinese generals were ordered to lead a band of soldiers to defend a province. However they were delayed by floods caused by heavy rainstorms.
The harsh Qin law at the time demanded death penalty for any government official who had shown up late, regardless whether it was their fault or not.
Since the two chinese generals were already condemned to die by the state they might as well take their shot at a coup.

Don't imply that someone should go on a mass shooting spree.
Go back to reddit
I did no such thing and anybody can look at my post history to confirm it for themselves to see exactly what I posted right before this post.
Words have meaning, Dom. I did not promote, advocate, glorify, or endorse a goddamned thing. Stop punishing me for your opinion on my private thoughts.
I know you think of me as a retard, but I'm actually not. I'm well aware of what your implications are.
You said it, not me.
Read the verbs again. Promote, Advocate, Glorify, Endorse.
My post does none of that. Restore it, remove the strike.
I'm aware of what you said and what you intended to say, and we both know I'm right about it. So no.
That magazine had at least six more rounds in it, and they can't punish you any harder than they already will.
Fine. Which sentence exactly do you have a problem with? Lets find out.
Realistically, his fate was life in prison the moment he fired the first shot.
Blocking the road in Panama is not a friendly gesture. It's an attack. This should be expected.
There are places where you don't slow down if someone is in the road, if you get what I am saying. Last of Us the TV show-style.
America is becoming one of those places, but people are still not the point where they accept that road blockers just get run down. But the same shit is happening as other countires.
If it isn't the consequences of your actions delivered at high velocity...
May sound like a cold bastard but got no sympathy for the activists, you were playing with fire for too long and I'm just surprised you haven't been shot or simply run over yet.
Your road blocking HAS probably lost lives as you've blocked a mother trying to get her baby to hospital in one video, so if things like this have to happen to get you to stop, so be it.
at some point someones got to pull the leaver and send the trolly
For some context, its not regular white annoying climate activists. They were apparently against some actually quite toxic mining that their government just approved on due to outright bribery. From my understanding it was an open pit copper mine that got approved and the protest was because that might actually and incredibly kill or hurt people in the local area because those are quite bad for obvious reasons.
They are still retarded in how they went about it, and the second guy absolutely deserved to get shot for being stupid. Its even a shame the woman in the background who said "Go on shot us" didn't get hit.
But its one of the few environmental issues that isn't made up bunk and worth protesting. Just maybe not in a bumble fuck retarded way like this.
If environmentalism hadn't been reduced to whiney teenagers weeping about things that won't happen, that they don't understand, perhaps we would be more willing to pay attention when something important is being protested.
conservation is based, environmentalism is gay
Exactly. I expected this to be some retards in California somewhere.
Thanks for the context.
I still don’t understand how these morons think blocking a road is a good idea. It just pisses people off and the optics look terrible.
Go protest in front of the state house.
The idea I think is to piss people off, and then try to channel their anger towards the government. Get them angry first, and then tell them why they should be. Or at the very least cause enough of a "economic and bureaucratic" problem that the government is willing to talk with you to end it.
Its a very "main character" idea of fixing a problem, one that requires thinking you have a lot more sway and power than makes any sense.
You have to be an especially idiotic kind of useful idiot to go out of your way to piss off someone controlling a couple thousand pounds of self propelled steel. With how common road rage incidents are, I'm actually a bit surprised that these "just stop oil" retards haven't found themselves in a reenactment of Death Race 2000 already.
It only makes sense in places like the UK where the cucked police defend the protesters and arrest commuters trying to stop them.
If I want to protest the government, I would write to the government, my local constituants, or if that's a bust, I write to the UN, the WTO, big NGOs. Maybe try to go viral on TikTok, get secondary attention that way.
If I want to inconvenience them in a non-violent way, block their own driveway, or the front steps to their governing house, or even block the front steps of the major news media's headquarters.
What you don't do, is try to block a road in a nation where bandits will block roads and rob those who dare stop at gunpoint. That's like trying to garner support for Sikhs by leaping out from the bushes at midnight at people brandishing your kirpan knife. Yeah, you're showing your solidarity with their religious iconography, but you're doing it in a way that makes you look like a murderous criminal.
Unions on strike almost always get what they want nowadays. And how do they do it? They partially block their own place of business, specifically. There's a proven track record of that getting results. Blocking random roads? Bah.
There's all kinds of ways to protest: Speeches, letters, open letters, petitions, peaceful gatherings that don't block traffic or marches where the public is notified well in advance, lobbying, posting on public boards, vigils, walkouts, boycotts, strikes, lots of online shitposting, selling banned goods and services or even just doing things that hurt nobody while knowing you could be arrested for it.
There's also the Scientology model: First accrue a giant war chest and devout followers. Then when any entity crosses you, you wage a total but legal scorched earth theater of battle on the perps. Target one or more high value individuals, have them watched 24/7 with PI's and make sure they know you're watching, send followers to knock on their doors to ask questions and interview and harass them, dig through their garbage, harass their family and friends via phone, e-mail, and even open letters in publications, float rumors that make their employers want to fire them, provoke them and sue them. Eventually the individuals will crack; even if they work for the FBI (which actually happened before) and let you have your way again.
This isn't actually legal, and the rest as a group would almost certainly be stalking/harassment, but that's what the giant war chest (and implicit threat of violence to anyone that might hold you to task for your crimes) are for.
Unions used to blanket-strike all member shops, not just the problem ones. That's what people forget wrt the 1930s cartoonists' strike (it actually wasn't Walt or his company that was the problem, it was WB and, I think, AAP, but they ALL had to walk because of the fucking union). That had to stop for 2 reasons - unions diversifying too much and the CAW completely breaking off from the UAW over Canadians being forced to walk over issues that didn't affect them at all, while Americans never voted to strike when Canadians were getting shafted.
maybe they should go harass the government officials that approved it. ;s
Oh well. Stay out of the road. Only two things belong in the road. Cars, and roadkill. If you aren't the first thing and don't want to become the second, stay out of the road.
Whatever they claim to be so upset about, doesn't change that rule.
No disagreement on that. Just all the comments at the time were talking like they were Greta Thunberg activists instead of people protesting a good cause in a very stupid retarded manner.
If you had police who go out and arrest every single participant in communist roadblocks, a legal system that put them in jail for 10 years, investigators who seized the assets of everybody involved in funding or supplying a roadblock, and even harsher punishments for people with authority who objected to using it to stop communist tactics, you'd solve a lot of problems very quickly.
That would require a regime that wasn't actively supporting communist agitators.
I figured that was inevitable
I'm having a hard time finding anyone on earth who thinks this guy acted wrongly.
Good, it's time these faggots learned they're at risk to suffer serious consequences for demanding we voluntarily cull ourselves to satisfy their delusional climate alarmism bullshit. They want fewer humans, they should volunteer themselves first.
Hide the pain Harold is done hiding his pain.
He's sharing the wealth.
looks like George Lucas finally decided to use the force, but a different kind of force
Example of FAFO and stupid games. Darwin award goes to the climate cultists.

What a nice old man, helping "environmentalist protesters" reduce their carbon footprint.
Give him a medal.

Do not glorify wanton murder.
There was a time back when KIA (well, old school KIA) was an /r/ instead of a /c/ where the mods would at least quote the removed comments as a matter of transparency.
I linked to a full video of the incident. Dont remember my exact words but I think I said it was satisfying
That would invalidate the entire point of a removal, but Spark is correct.
Only if you were modposting the comment as your own.
If I'm going to just quote the comment, then there's no point for the removal. And if that's the case, then I need to be more heavy handed with bans to compensate for the fact that I'm not actually removing offending posts.
*facepalm*
The true climate zealot would kill himself as an act intended to save the planet because, naturally, we homosaps are no better than cockroaches or rats.

Do not call for the mass killing of an entire collective as inherent self-defense. That's the standard argument of genocide going back millennia.
