most of you are probably too fat to even get in to rappelling gear

Doesn't work well when you ruin my experience at an event.

[electro's horse]

I expect that they were taken off to jail by people who weren't very impressed by how righteous their cause was.

Hope they spend several months in Jail

Yeah really. When I first saw them, and saw that they had a banner that they were about to unveil, I told my wife "I know this is going to be some kind of BS granola protest crap but, just once, I'd like the mountain climbers to just have a sign that says Go Panthers."

No, and obviously I was exaggerating, but they disrupted the game for around a hundred people who paid good money to get in the stadium. I'm a little concerned how they managed to get rappelling equipment inside the stadium

Would have been better if they did it right in front of JRS box.  I probably would have chucked a Bo time tea at them after his nap.

yeah they should have saved that for a prime time game. 

also oh god boo hoo won't someone think of the lower level PSL holders

 

FWIW, I am actually against most fracking. 

 

However, the point is that if they actually wanted to win converts to their belief, pissing off the people who were in the area of the protest, is not the best way to go about it.   As best I can remember, their banner wasn't shown on TV, they managed to piss of, be ignored by,  or look foolish to the majority of those in the stadium, and they might have spent the night in jail.  In other words, not a good night for their cause.  Why not set up outside the stadium like the other protesters do, pass out flyers, and maybe win a few converts to their cause?

 

Anyway, I am violating my own policy of not contaminating football discussion with political stuff, so adios.

You've heard of the "Shout 'FIRE!' in a crowded theater" exception right?

In other words, you're "right" to speak ends when your action becomes a direct threat to other peoples lives.  More simply, yes, you have god-given rights, but there are RESPONSIBILITIES that come along with those rights.

You sound like you're from that silly, unserious group that demands all their 'rights' while at the same time insisting they have no responsibilities.

Put even MORE simply: Grow the fug up.
