Who doesn’t like to watch nuns battling climate protesters? I know you’ve likely never even considered it until now, and how should that make you feel? Nuns fighting (I’m a fan of Warrior Nun – Netflix and IMDB – if you care). But that’s fiction. This is the real world.
Defending the faith has become increasingly contentious, so when a climate protester tried to stop construction by trespassing on the property, sister bulldozer hopped to it, so to speak, and tackled him.
“I didn’t expect that,” protestor Sylvain Herenguel told France 3.
“I expected the nuns to be a little reasonable for the public order. The problem is that the religious decided to resort to violence. I was attacked 3 times by five people, who snatched me, who wanted to throw me out. There, they decided to protect the site with their actions and their bodies,” he added.
Just ask your average Catholic School survivor – not sure they are as strict as they used to be – and you’ll get an earful about discipline. So he should have seen it coming.
And it looks like he is absconding pipe of some sort, which one of his fellow protesters can be seen crushing. So, there’s nothing wrong with a bit of trespass or destruction of property, but trying to prevent it?
Énorme ! La bonne sœur qui plaque un écologiste… du grand spectacle en Ardèche où des religieuses défendent le chantier d’un futur centre religieux face aux militants qui bloquent à cause de l’impact sur l’environnement.
