How about some good news?

Greenpeace kooks tried to disrupt London’s International Petroleum Exchange, but the oil traders turned the tables on them, kicking em (literally) to the curb and hospitalizing two of them.

Snip

… they were set upon by traders, most of whom were under the age of 25. “They were kicking and punching men and women indiscriminately,” a photographer said. “It was really ugly, but Greenpeace did not fight back.”

“They followed the guys into the lobby and kept kicking and punching them there. They literally kicked them on to the pavement.”

Thought I would provide some info ya'll might find interesting about one of Greenpeace's co-founders.


He left Greenpeace a long time ago and I remember watching an interview of him where he said the two main reasons for leaving Greenpeace was their evolution into a Luddite eco-religious cult and his epifany that nuclear power is the worlds most practical clean source of energy.

Dr. Patrick Moore represents true conservatism in regards to environmental policy. We must be good stewards of our environment and use technology and moral/ethical awareness to achieve these means, but not at the expense of society bending to the radical fringe.


Dr. Moore and his views on the enviroment cause the facist left to call him an eco-Judas, but both he and Richard S. Lindzen, the Alfred P. Sloan Professor of Meteorology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are enviromental giants amongst the worlds intellectually bankrupt radicals.

Read up on both these people, you will be mightily impressed.


I just had to add that for the far left to call someone a Judas is irony on so many levels only Aristotle or Socrates could handle. I never cease to be amazed at the Luddite atheists dellusion.
