A thread about protesters

Phil1 said:
The problem though is nobody would give a seconds notice to a protest which wasn't really affecting anybody. A few dozen folk just standing in a street somewhere with placards would just quietly be swept under carpet and forgotten about, certainly wouldn't prick the publics conscious.
To get attention to a cause usually needs something that will grab headlines.
Not going to argue the rights or wrongs of this particular protest but I can understand why they've chosen to do what they've done.

The problem is this hasn’t worked either, sure it’s got more notice but in a negative sense for the aims of the protestors. The population have turned against them and that has ensured the government can just ignore it or even get heavy handed with them.

Help us lock up Insulate Britain, police plead

Detectives want motorists whose lives were disrupted by Insulate Britain in Essex to come forward and help them build a criminal case against members of the eco-mob.

'People like you' Lol!
That's virtually everyone.

I wonder if the Bobby Sands wannabe is still refusing porridge?
If he's the one in for 6 months, there won't be much left to stick him to the M25 when he gets out.

Exactly. The widow of PC Harper, dragged to death by feral scum, has just won a change in the law, to jail attacks on emergency service workers for life.
All without the help of a tube of Bostik.

Wow you are using that story about a coppers death to try and prove a point on a football forum.

I have a higher opinion of things I've stepped in than I do for you.

Pathetic.

Listen cock, you've accused me of lying, I haven't, and you've been telling people that
using legal means of protest doesn't work, I then prove it does, you see your arse and come
out with shite like that.
I know facts are hard to take when you are holding a torch for nutters, but they don't
care.

Yet is has, hasn't it?

You're obviously fine with illegal protests, I'm fine with what happens to those who break the law,
by all accounts, that seems to be the opinion of the populace.

It was in the post that I replied to saying you lied.

Columbo is safe:-)
 
People on this thread saying if people die because of protests they are still happy to support their methods. Does this qualify? In my book they are cunts.

Have you actually given any thought to that statement.

Illegal protests FFS , we do not yet live under a Dictatorship. Protests should never be illegal as they are a vital part of the democratic process. Close down protests, close down Democracy.

I abhor Tiny Tommy ten names and his crew of bigots and racists but i back 100% their right to protest, i vehemently disagree with everything they stand for, but if they are not allowed to protest and express their beliefs then those beliefs risk going underground and becoming subversive.

When they start targeting emergency vehicles and only block emergency vehicles let me know.

The Insulate Britain protests are part of the concern about global warming and the threat this poses to lives. The RNLI protest was to specifically stop lives being saved. There is no equivalence. Do you not see that?
