Violence is expected to escalate on the streets of Copenhagen over coming days as climate activists, angered by the “pre-emptive” arrest of almost 1,200 protesters over the weekend, consider more radical forms of protest . . .

Journalists and even a jogger are believed to be among those now being housed in the special steel cages brought in for COP15.

A Copenhagen police spokesman said police had found bolt-cutters and gas masks when they searched the sound wagon leading the demonstration.

Good. Hose 'em down some while they're in there.

Doesn’t anyone find it hilarious that the lefties are the ones causing all the trouble and being violent?

No. Say it's not true. I thought they were all grassroots conservatives with three piece suits and button down collars taking a semester off from the Wharton School of Business.

Oh, I think it's a hoot. Leftists have a propensity for eating their own. And here we have the SS of the eco-Nazi elite barricaded away from their own Useful Idiots, who are tossing bricks and waving torches because they don't think that decapitation is an extreme enough solution for global dandruff. It sounds like a four-star zombie-fest over there, and I'd like to see the whole damn place erupt into total pandemonium, and make the conference an expensive wash.

I bet its cold in those cages.

Let 'em keep warm by riding bicycle generators to keep the phony "green" Christmas tree lit. (More fitting, they really oughta be using giant hamster wheels.)

This article although it appears to be about financial bubbles gives another explanation for what the green fascists are trying to do. Now they are attempting to squash the urban sprawl thoughts they put in peoples heads because they want them to build “green”. The article has a link in it I hope everyone reads it.

By the way does anyone know what is going on about Atheists posting on site in ref. to climate gate? I have received a couple of pings to a post saying Free Republic is a conservative site and making reference to climate gate ping lists. I am assuming it is because I am on this climate gate ping list.

I don’t understand what all the commotion is about I must have missed something however the way I look at all that is I do not feel my religious belief’s are threatened because someone is an Atheist, it will not affect my belief in God and if they have something to contribute against climate gate great if not having served my country and defending free speech I think it is a slippery slope to try and stifle anyones rights even if I disagree with them.

I read a news piece the other day where the lefties who were arrested (protesting that all the countries weren't signing into the global warming/new world order treaty fast enough) were complaining because the cops made them sit handcuffed on the side of the street IN THE FREEZING WEATHER!!!!

Betcha they were glad to finally get to that nice warm jail that was heated by fossil fuel generated electricity!

“’Tis better to ask for forgiveness than permission?”

Lockem up before they destroy Copenhagen!

As a side issue, these idiots have got to be hurting their movement. What rational person would support a group that seeks to destroy a city through violent protests?

This is great ammo. Telling libs elsewhere the fact Danes are putting supporters of Phil Jones, Michael Mann and Al Gore’s “science” in specially constructed steel cages about says it all.

I believe that is the crux of the matter. Neither these people, nor their supporters are rational. That's why facts have no effect.

I love it!

They will drive away the very people they are trying to convince — as I said above, what rational, sane person would support loonies like these?

Hmmmm, not a toilet in sight. No matter, 1 night with each other in a cage and they’ll be having a scat party anyways.
