I read that the protestor caused a car crash and the driver attacked them. I’ve seen the video but it doesn’t show what happened beforehand.
I agree with JSO’s cause but IF their actions have caused an accident then it’s hard to feel sorry for the “victim” of the attack. |

It was inevitable these imbecile "protestors" would eventually be subject to violence.
Maybe, they're happy now....?! |

I will add that the kick to the head was a step too far. |

Any kind of violence is going too far - but it does seem people are exasperated by them now. They should protest in Whitehall instead of blocking the road for normal people trying to get about their lives.

JSO have escalated their actions for the last week undertaking multiple walks and disruptions across the capital.
Not saying it’s right to assault people but it’s clear the public have had enough.

I think the worst thing is that the regular person they're disrupting aren't the main culprits for causing climate change. They have a right to protest, but they're targeting the wrong people |

"Don't look up.

It was a boring film. Looking forward to the sequel.  "
Excited to see the JSO leader sleeping with the lady on the telly |

Things to consider.
We've known about the health dangers of fossil fuels since the Victorian era.
Science has been warning about climate impact of fossil fuels since the 50s.
These things have been actively protested against since the 80s.
We know what is happening and governments are still dragging their feet.
In terms of protests.
If protests are convenient their is no impetus to either listen or make them stop. Science has been screaming at society and government to do something for over 50-years to prevent what is happening.
Understandably, they're pissed off.
We celebrate Ghandi, Mandela, Rosa Parks, the Suffragettes, MLK.
All of whom were involved in incredibly disruptive, and often illegal, acts of social disobedience.
In many cases people died.
Considering that people have often resorted to rioting and acts of terrorism on less important issues if your most upset about someone being late for work, give your head a wobble.

I'm just surprised that it's taken this long for one of them to be assaulted and I'm still surprised and amazed by the patience and restraint of the British public.
It doesn't make it right but it shows that JSO are alienating their audience and I do think they either need to start protesting in a more considerate way or the police need to break up their silly antics quicker before somebody gets SERIOUSLY hurt or worse. |

The irony is that most of their belongings will likely contain oil based products.
Their Hi-Vis vests certainly do.
Incidentally, wasn't there a lady who died because the protestors wouldn't let the traffic move to let the ambulance through?(this was a while back) |

"How are these protetests inconvenient for governments?"
All disruption, especially if it causes civil unrest and if it causes the police to have to come out and deal with it is inconvenient to the PM. |

"When the Chief of Police directs his men to observe and do nothing then honest citizens will assume their role..

Glad you’re just some guy on the internet and not anyone with any power to prevent people exercising their right to protest. |

I personally am bored with all this virtue signalling and blaming “the government”.
Governments can’t do anything - the _only_ thing that will _actually_ make a difference is people changing _their_ behaviour on a daily basis. People is us. You, me and everyone on this thread.
Now I am sure that everyone is going to pile in and say that _they_ are doing everything they can but frankly that is crap. No you are not. I am not. None of us are.
Maybe you will say that this is the most important thing facing us and you would love to make a difference but you can’t because the infrastucture isn’t in place or the technology or what ever. You are right. It isn’t. So my question to you is: why are you not dropping everything and inventing that technology and creating that infrastructure? Why are you not actively putting together viable businesses that will change the future?
You are not doing that because you don’t _actually_ think this is the most important issue.
Glueing yourself to the pavement, throwing orange glitter or slow walking through London isn’t going to change the world. It is style over substance.
Actions speak louder than words and I don’t see many people putting actions that will change the future into play.
What are you _actually_ doing that will make a real impact on helping people to solve this problem?

He got a slap for being a dickhead. Seems there is a god after all.
In other news it appears that the Germans have got a new way of ungluing them from the road (yes they still do the glue shit here)
Just dig up the lump of tarmac that they are glued to (including hand) then tell them to fuck off and sort it yourself.
Happy days. |

JSO should go and protest in Tiannemem square,but they haven't got 1)the brains to see the boost it would give their cause,2)the balls to do it.
Peter Tatchell had the brains and balls to go to Qatar and stage a one man protest,all credit to him for putting "his money where his mouth is" and leading by example.HERO.
JSO ZERO. |

Maybe jso will feel better when the government bans all forms of public protest. They are providing all the ammunition that is needed to garner public support for banning protests.
JSO are helping the government to create a police state.
Zero sympathy for them or their cause. Violence towards them, while inappropriate, is Inevitable.

Turns out JSO caused the guy who punched one to have a collision whilst his pregnant girlfriend was in the car.If anyone put my pregnant girlfriend/wife at risk they would get more than punched.
Interesting that as yet no Women's rights organisation(or any other pressure group) has come forward and condemned JSO for it. |

As millions around the world this week suffer the extreme deadly effects of climate catastrophe, it's obvious that we aren't doing enough to prevent and stop the horrors of what our leaders are responsible for. The likes of Johnson and Truss walk away with £millions, their party funded by emitters given approval for more catastrophes to be caused. Has your conscience been bought by the people destroying life as we know it? |

I agree, it’s a disaster. It was only 20 degrees here. That’s diabolical for mid july. |
