It isn’t being green. Think of all the other ways to spend your time. Instead of blocking bridges in protest, you could get a job and join the commuters you keep pissing off. Drivers who, on this day, decided they’d had enough.
Frustrated Vancouver commuters drag radical environmental protesters off the road.

“There are bigger issues here,” a protester replied amid a scene of drivers dragging protesters by shirts, safety vests or whatever they could grab onto to get them out of the way. Protesters tried returning to the middle of the bridge, prompting one man to say, “Bro, you want to die, bro?”
“We’re all going to die if we don’t do something,” one protester argued back before the police arrived to end the standoff.
Getting arrested looks good on the radical resume, so they must have been disappointed. There was only one arrest, but the great thing about fanatics is they never give up.
Protester Brent Eichler, who was on day 28 of a hunger strike, said the issue is about life and death.
“We are entering the darkest age of human history, and facing mass starvation as we approach a two degrees increase in global average temperatures. The B.C. government is aiding in the destruction of the country,” he said.
The only mass starvation we’re going to experience is being engineered by the same people who think it’s a good idea FOR YOU to stand on highways to block cars in the name of environmental justice.
It looks a lot like Islamodascist Islam. The leadership isn’t strapping on the bomb vest or strolling out into highway traffic. That’s your job. And it’s your job because the actual cause is something else, and you are just a distraction and an acceptable casualty.
Dope.
