A climate activist who lit himself on fire on Earth Day outside the United States Supreme Court Building has died, according to reports.
Wynn Bruce, 50, of Boulder, Colorado, died Saturday, a day after he set himself ablaze in Washington, D.C., the Metropolitan Police Department told Fox News.
The incident happened around 6:30 p.m. on the plaza in front of the court building.
He was airlifted to a local hospital, where he died.
A Facebook page belonging to a person named Wynn Bruce said he was a Buddhist and a climate activist.
In 2020, Bruce left a cryptic Facebook comment that included a fire emoji and the date of his death, 4/22/2022.

“If everyone who believes that CO2 is dangerous would simply put a plastic bag over their head to eliminate their own contribution of CO2, we could solve this problem overnight”
Then....you have the methane released through decomposition to worry about. What is worse CO2 or methane?
His carbon footprint turned into a carbon blob.
Wynn-ee roast?
If we had more climate nuts like him we’d have fewer climate nuts like him . . . (and I sure hope I got the pronouns correct).
He’s set a high bar for all climate activists. The rest should strive to be like him.
Boulder is FULL of leftist nuts. He was one of them.
“I betcha he rejected global warming not long after he struck that match.”
Betcha your statement right -
And he found out there were infinitely more true and important “issues”.
- Fire burns and hurts more than advertised
- God really does exist
- God doesn’t believe in atheist
- Humanism and paganism don’t impress God
- Reality and consequences of pride, self as god, rebellion and sin against God, and immorality were bigger problems than imagined
- Lighting ones self on fire isn’t something one can fix at Walmart or with a good insurance policy
- Lighting ones self in fire in the effort to hasten global totalitarianism doesn’t garner as much support and sympathy as advertised
Neither has any effect on the temperature, that is determined by the source of all heat, the Sun.
And they will NEVER tell you what the ideal ‘climate’ (temperature) and weather should be. Why? Because they (leftists) are full of conflicting ‘wants.’
“How very carbon of him.”
That was succinct 👍
Atheistic earth worship is an empty faith which leads to depression and suicide.
I was thinking of that jpeg.

I’ll settle for one at a time.
Batman lit himself on fire?
I’ll have to take his sticker off my laptop.
He seemed pretty fired up over this climate crap
“He just wanted to be warm for the rest of his life.”
Well, he fixed that problem in different ways -
a buddhist lit himself on fire, in protest of something something not settled.
as compared to the buddhist monk who set himself on fire to protest the then real political machinations that were South ietnam.
one sacrifice driven by self-importance, i.e. facebook, and the other, truly for the greater good.
There’s NEVER a good time for Springsteen. I have never, ever understood what attracted people to his boring Anti-American, anti-responsibility music.
“…have a wife and kid in Baltimore, Jack
I went out for a ride, and never came back.”
What a stellar thing to be proud of.
Nothing like lighting one’s self on fire to prove the veracity of one’s position.
