Stone Henge Damaged by Just Stop Oil
Truly shocking video of them attempting to destroy one of our few historical monuments.
Lengthily jail sentences are required for this. |

Yes, they get away with it. |
These disrespectful vandals should be put in stocks and have rotten fruit and veg thrown at their faces

What's the substance? I mean... obviously it's senseless/terrible either way, but it's much more serious if it's something that's going to stick permanently or stain than if it's something that'll wash off the next time it rains.
|
Interestingly though it's all about context. Let's say it does stick or traces of it stick permanently. From our perspective that's vandalism and ruins the historical landmark... from the perspective of people in the year 2300, it's PART of the history of the historical landmark, and probably quite fascinating. They'll learn about it in... space school... or whatever.

It's only in very recent times that the stones have not been vandalised. Literally, for hundreds of years people have been chipping away at them and carving their initials :laugh:
|
Appalling. They've sank to a new low.
|
It’s corn starch, that’ll wash off in the next rain, annoying and meaningless? Yes, but the overreaction is ridiculous :laugh:
|
These upper middle class activists are hilarious, Stonehenge and then Glyndebourne and then The Boat race
:joker: Where did they park their 3 tonne electric SUV I wonder? |
Its just disrespectful .
Standards are being eroded faster than Stonehenge itself Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

It doesn’t just wash off….it has to be removed by experts so as not to damage the stone. |

At least they'll have a week off next week. They'll all be at Glastonbury.

[The protesters, who were named as
Niamh Lynch, 21, a student from Oxford, and Rajan Naidu, 73, from Birmingham, have now been arrested by police on suspicion of damaging the historical monument. As police officers led the pair away, one man could be heard shouting: 'You dirty scum. This is a temple, not a publicity stunt!'] |

I’m starting to wonder if a bit of violence maybe the answer .. If everytime they pulled off one of these despicable stunts and a few of them got a few backhanders and minor injuries… maybe that would serve as a deterrent ? Not long ago we were seeing the public getting involved with the stopping traffic stunts - they were being dragged off the road and their banners destroyed . They seem to have given up with traffic jams ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I just wish personally that Don't Stop Oil just sticks with hijacking events, rather than messing with monuments or dangerously playing around with traffic. |
Liam Gallagher issues warning to Just Stop Oil after Stonehenge protest…
“Don’t ******* with the stones man, they have mystical powers. Hope they all wake up tmoz and are all orange toads.” https://uk.yahoo.com/news/liam-galla...155503068.html |
…Tom Hanks is on the case, casting a spell on all those who offend the stones…

they can make their protests without causing damage. It automatically angers people when they damage stuff. It's not going to bring the public around to their viewpoint
|
If this doesn't persuade the oil companies to just stop, then nothing will!!!
|
It is a sacred site to some so no different to desecrating a Church etc
