Upon watching this video advertisement from Greenpeace the first words that sprang to The Beasts mind were Wicked creepy. Why waste ten bucks at the local cineplex to watch the origins of Hannibal Lechter when you can see it here for free?
Maybe its just The Beast, but are the Enviroes getting ever more sinister by the day? They want you fired, they want you arrested, they want to destroy your livelihood and now they are attracting proto-serial murderers. Whats next - solar powered concentration camps for Global Warming Deniers? Guarenteed, this kid would be at least a guard, if not Kommandante.
What shall we call this new environmental youth-thug army this kid hints is coming? The Greenshirts?
This Beast is amazed that the wack-jobs over at Greenpeace are apparently so rage-driven and ideologically isolated that they actually thought people who saw this video fantasy would react positively to it, instead of seeing it for what it is: a violent, totalitarian wet dream.
Greenshirts.

Charles they already have - click on the youtube icon in the video and you will see some stoned hippie has done a rambling video response already.
I thought of doing my "Letter from dad" as a video response but since the kid is a minor I decided it would not be a good idea to mock him, even though it's the character being derided, not the kid himself (who I suspect has a genuine acting career ahead of him).
But yes, great idea. With that fledgling republican comedy show getting started on Fox, this is exactly the stuff they need. Too bad they didn't hire us huh?
If you accept all the BS about global warming, this kid's position makes perfect sense. The problem is, it is all BS. Unfortuanately, this kid, and many like him, has been conditioned to accept the hysterics of the environmentalists without any critical evaluation.
If this kid demands to be taken seriously, then we should take him seriously. That means that when he is caught vandalizing equipment or tresspassing, he should get a beat-down and severe punishment, just like an adult. No get-out-of-jail-free card for Skippy.
