CHICAGO — Greenpeace activists unfurled a banner from Trump Tower in Chicago to protest the Trump administration's stance on global warming.
Chicago police say seven protesters were taken into custody Friday for attempting to hang the banner, which had the words "resist" and "defend'." An arrow was next to "resist" and "defend" covered a picture of the earth. The banner also bore the name of the environmental group.
The activists attempted to pull the banner to the 25th floor of the tower, where a 20-foot "TRUMP" sign is attached. It didn't appear the activists, working from an open-air deck, reached their goal.
The organization sent out a statement shortly before the effort saying "activists with Greenpeace USA are at Trump International Hotel in downtown Chicago, preparing to send a message that the Trump Administration can't ignore."
Police say charges are pending against the activists, five males and two females.

Second how does wasting precious resources making an enormous banner help the environment in any way?
Third who or how does this inspire anyone to do anything meaningful or productive? Haven't libtards simply been conditioned and programmed to start fires and break shit when they are triggered by seeing the word "RESIST"?
Resistance is futile.
LMAO Greenpeace: They are so 80’s. Furthermore, they didn’t get the memo “global warming” is out and “climate change” is the talking point?
Ask these morons if they believe in Mann’s (horse) hockey stick.
“Police say charges are pending against the activists, five [Geldings] and two [Lesbians].”
Fixed! :)
Shoulda thrown these misfits over the edge. Splat.
Resist we much!
If this is all they have, hanging banners, the Left is losing.
How do we know they identify as men and women?
While from outward appearances, it may seem that there were 5 males and 2 females, you can’t go by visual identification to determine the sex of a person, per the liberals own criteria.
We are too “binary” focused, and too focused on side issues such as the genitalia, per the activists who bitch about equal rights for trans-sexual peoples.
Yeah, 25 stories up is a ways. It’d be terrible if they slipped or something.
