These degenerate protesters need to do it the legal way, or expect to get arrested. This is a well funded campaign and the same people keep getting arrested, reattend the protest, and get arrested again. They need to fine them more. The cost to taxpayers is now in the 10s of millions.
The judge is using people's feelings about badges in the judgement:
"And, enforcement has been carried out by police officers rendered anonymous to the protesters, many of those police officers wearing ‘thin blue line’ badges. All of this has been done in the name of enforcing this court’s order, adding to the already substantial risk to the court’s reputation whenever an injunction pulls the court into this type of dispute between citizens and the government.”
The thin blue line patches worn by some RCMP enforcing the injunction have been described as a symbol of police solidarity in Canada. But Justice Thompson noted that they “are seen as provocative and insensitive by some of the citizens they serve.”
The only logical, rational, humane solution is an MMA tournament. Hippies vs dippies. If the hippies win, the logging stops. If the dippies win, logging continues. Everyone else wins for not having to deal with them, and getting some entertainment.
Paywall. What’s the scoop? Did they eventually get the dirty commie hippies off that private land?
Sounds like not. Here’s a solution. Jail time. At least one year. No parole. That should give the land owners time to cut down whatever trees they need to.
No, lots of hippies there from what I hear.. Look it up, the "environmentalists" leave more garbage behind than you would think they could even get out there. These douchebags aren't even environmentalists, they're generally just anti-everything involving progress and use environmental buzz words while appealing to people's desire to have an enemy. We'll see how much they like camping in the winter months. Funny part is the local native bands are partners in the logging operations and have told them to get the fuck off their land but they still won't leave! In this day and age going against the will of the natives never turns out but somehow they're managing. They are also incredibly well funded
Hmm wonder if our old friend $pros and $chwab are linked to this somehow if one follows the money.
Never ceases to amaze me how these clowns like XR and other assorted enviro knob heads have no work to do. Where’s a few adult bears or cougars when you need em.
