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.

Doesn’t anyone find it hilarious that the lefties are the ones causing all the trouble and being violent? They are the biggest hippocrites in the world.

angered by the “pre-emptive” arrest of almost 1,200 protesters over the weekend Hummmmm....... There is a tipping point for these things. Can the gestapo cram another 1,200 into their cages? How about another 2,400? Sooner or later, the dam is going to break. I sure hope the "Magic Negro" is present when it happens.

Sounds like the “Pre-Crime” unit from Minority Report is busy.

Remember, this is what they do to those who are really on their side......

Not to mention that they expect "basic rights" where they have none: like freedom of speech and freedom of assembly. Such freedoms are not guaranteed in Europe, much as they might like to believe it is so....

I sure hope the "Magic Negro" is present when it happens. Better hope he gets out of there too. Only Plugs would stand between Nancy Pelosi and the White House.

Looks confined. Imagine the CO2 levels in those cages.

This will go down as the beginning of the end of the GW crowd. What's next: impending doom from asteroids due to Capitalism effects on the Earth's orbit?

It’s really sad to think that there are people out there who don’t think the Copenhagan meeting is left wing enough.

Does Denmark have their own version of the ACLU? Perhaps the Danish Civil Liberties Union? If so, they should have a busy week.
