A sad case of self-immolation with fossil fuels, to protest fossil fuels
A green activist who was a pioneering lawyer for gay and transgender rights including in the infamous Boys Dont Cry murder case committed suicide by setting himself on fire Saturday morning in Brooklyns Prospect Park.
In a gruesome protest against the ecological destruction of the earth, David Buckel, 60, left behind a charred corpse and a typed suicide note that said he was burning himself to death using fossil fuel to reflect how mankind was likewise killing itself, police sources said.
He left the note behind in a manila envelope marked To The Police, recovered from inside a black metal push cart he discarded at the scene.
Passersby were horrified to see Buckels blackened, prone remains.
It was just lying there, on its back, knees slightly bent like someone would lie on the sand at the beach, said Irena Ryjova, 44, who rollerbladed past at around 7 a.m., less than an hour after the immolation.

Shale we assume that he walked to where he killed himself rather than driving there?
Most sorry for his stupid death due to insane ideology. He was not only a far left liberal but mentally unbalanced. He was a flaming liberal and in this instance no pun is intended. He is to be pitied in death.
Liberalism without critical liberal thinking analysis is indoctrination. This poor man died foolishly.
ps
Death by very intense flame is not that painful as the nerve endings near the flesh quickly become non functional. The flames he endured were not intense but slow. It was a most horrid death.
“”Think of all the CO2 he generated.”””
And, the methane he WILL generate.
Would it be inappropriate to say, “COOL!”?
I wonder if he got the irony as he lit the match?
Better headline: “An insane gay transgender enviromental wacko burned himself to death and left a mess to be cleaned up. “
More than that, I am wondering if they will follow suit?
“...Looks like the flamer was 60 years old.”
Dang! Does that mean I made it to age 69 just for not being an enviro faggie whacko?

Honor a mentally ill man by not using oil, coal gas?

Should have crawled into a hole and buried himself and feed the soil and insects.
Self-immolation for social justice.
Doesn’t work.

He wasn’t protesting anything. It’s more likely that he was bailing out of a life that had become, for him, a deviant, impossoble. In life he defined himself by what he liked to do with his crotch. At 60 yrs of age a lifetime of obsessive sex had likely brought the usual disease and misery. Add to that his age which may have precluded the hook-ups he desired.
If only all these lunatics on the left would do that.
I think he set an example that should be followed by all extreme envirowhackos.
Shouldn’t that headline read: “Formerly Green now Black and Crispy”
He burned the grass on the park lawn!!!! Why?!!! Why damage the image of a public park?!!!
Well, there are dangerous Animals ranging from a starving dog to killer ants to pigs to sharks, although two of the ways to get animals to eat humans involve cruelty to the animals (starvation)
He was a flaming queer.
