Is Mob Law taking over?

dubdaymo · 10-10-2019 11:14am #1

In London the climate lunatics are causing chaos in the streets again (and at London City Airport this morning) and the vegan lunatics are not only bursting into restaurants but now occupying and disrupting the main meat market and forcing the traders to move out to other locations if they want to do their day's work.

The secondary effect of this is the removal of police from their prime job of tackling the ever-increasing major crime problem.

We have our own climate lunatics trying something similar here and, sadly, the likes of Morning Ireland and The Pat Kenny Debate have given them airtime.

This is very worrying. I think it's time for the pussyfooting around by Police to stop. These lunatics need to be taught a lesson, a harsh lesson, that legitimate protest does not include daily disruption of citizens lives. If not nipped in the bud this trend could develop into something very unpleasant.

Take you long to come up with that zinger?

Amazing how you can tell someone is a conservative middle aged angry man from one post.

The interesting thing is that a lot of these movements are based on the precepts of anarchy.

Roger Hallam the co founder of Extinction Rebellion is a dyed in the wool anarchist - with his latest anarchist type project being the co-creation of the Extinction Rebellion group. His various youtube videos and speeches leave little doubt his primary motivation is to forment civil unrest in order to overthrow the existing system of government in the UK and elsewhere

Here Roger Hallam describes on a lecture video what he did after failing as an organic farmer:
"I decided to come down to London to take out the system because I didn’t like it very much. That’s my plan. And I obviously wanted to study how to do it effectively so that’s why got myself into King’s College."

https://youtu.be/aRLsRqKguW0

The other cofounder of extinction rebellion is
Gail Bradbrook who identifies as a neo-pagan, and who found her purpose in a trip to Costa Rica to help come up with a solution to societal ills. The trip included the use of various psychedelics drugs.

A recent report detailed in the article below highlights some of the background of this group...

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/07/16/treat-extinction-rebellion-extremist-anarchist-group-former/[/quote]

From the coverage so far most of these protests appear to be made up largely of the usual groups - disaffected youths and older crusties.

That they are being used by the likes of the chief anarchist - Roger Hallam is perhaps not surprising.

They haven't said what's planned for Dublin but they do intend to do something to cause major disruption before heading back to foxrock in Mammy's diesel q7.
Glad the media aren't giving the Irish loons much air time. Maybe one of them will eat a baby or something. They'd probably get 3 cheers from the left though.

Our whole system is basically mob law/rule; squeaky wheel etc etc.

For their next protest they should block the roundabout outside the 3 arena. That will back up the Port Tunnel, the East Link and maybe the Port. That should cause traffic chaos just about everywhere within the M50. It might be more effective than their current protests which just makes for a more pleasant walk to the train station with less traffic.

whisky_galore · 10-10-2019 11:29am

Don't worry it'll be as dead as Occupy Movement when the next fad comes along.

Harry Palmr · 10-10-2019 11:32am

It's certainly true that the mob should not be extorting money from Dublin's property developments.

The parallels of exaggerated doom and gloom you have in common with the climate lunatics is kinda funny

A couple of idiots making an inconvenience of themselves is no reason the rest of us need to fear for the breakdown of our judicial system.

Conservative middle aged men as a demographic are contributing significant amounts of the income tax take.

Those unwashed unemployed hippies climate activists aren't going to be contributing anywhere near an equal share of the cost to the measures they want.

Of course they aren't because it's easy to pontificate to others when you are cocooned in a college safe space away from reality, or sitting on your hole all day waiting for your social to roll in. Impossible to take any of them seriously.

Imagine someone else telling you what you can and can't eat?

You can't say that - they just might get offended

I propose we have a big barbacue and eat the lot of them, calling first dibs on the lesbians.

Do not personalise it like this. Challenge the post, yes, but leave the poster alone

What we saw in Oughterard, Rooskey and Courtown was mob rule.

Climate activist are by and large not, except for the usual rent a mob hanger on'ers.

The problem there though is that the rent a mob crowd tend to be the ones that end up taking over the protests, and then turn them into a show of hypocrisy and total inconvenience to almost everyone else they're trying to ram their message at.

Lads protesting orderly outside a local council office asking to change some policies to help the environment? Fair play to them, and I hope they get as much as they can for the good they're trying to do. Good people.

Lads screaming save the planet in the middle of the street wanting me to get rid of my car (which my family needs), not eat meat and reduce my plastic wastage while they arrived in cars, eat a convenient sausage roll/lunch wrap and wear plastics masks that they'll throw away when they're done? They can fu*k right off, hypocritical twats.

While the genuine activists, who know how to protest and would have things well organised generally, are trying to get their message out, unfortunately its the rent a mob crowd that will be seen. And them that will turn ordinary people off these protests, or what they're meant to be about.

There's something satisfying about passive aggressive freebooting hippy types that never felt the weight of a spade getting timber:

Never bring an orts degree to a baton fight!

Reclaim the streets.
Occupy.
Extinction Rebellion.

There'll be some other nonsense concocted when they get a hold of this one.

Macron spoke of the islamist hydra in France this week. The crusty hydra will have to be finally faced down at some point too.

I wouldn't call it a hydra, that would assume it's got a head to cut off.
Amorphous, leaderless mess that will fizzle out eventually, to reform into some other equally ill defined fruitless movement down the road. Best used as source material for ridicule or ignored.
