I guess it's more convenient than gluing themselves to artwork.
But, come on man! Gasoline is expensive! And, think of what you're doing to the atmosphere!

It might be noteworthy that Mr. Briquette also suffered lasting effects from a brain injury he sustained in a car wreck that killed his best friend about 30 years ago.
It saves us having to do it I suppose…

I support this action. In fact, they might change my mind a bit if a few million more did this. I say give it a try and we'll see what happens.

Think of the toxins released by that burning! Throw themselves in the ocean naked and drown next time, marine creatures have to eat too. 🤨

When people take deadly actions in the name of protest it is just dumb because they are hurting themselves and not really changing anything.

It is about as dumb as an Ethiopian going on a hunger strike.

The two people were willing to self sacrifice for something that is beyond themselves. A testament of how insignificant the self is when there is bigger cause to be served. Jesus did the same, hypothetically. We are all serving a cause, some just don't desire to be pawns for the rich no more.

Even if one disagrees with the method, if they had an ounce of sincerity, they would respect the principle. We live in world where people talk about compassion but don't understand its truth and don't have many values at all.

Can the anti vax folks throw Covid parties? Like they did with chicken pox?

I saw some standing on blocks of ice with a noose around their neck in such a manner that if the ice melts the person would be hanged. I saw that there were a number people offering to bring heaters to speed up the melt.....
