"...we will continue until the power plant is taken offline once and for all."

And we can all freeze to death in the dark.

If we’re killing the planet why
aren’t they ditching their
cell phones and cars? Coal
produces the electricity to
power devices, heat homes...

Speaking of NH at one point
a lib there named Deb “Arnie”
Arnesen nicknamed SUVs “FUVs”
for their waste of resources and
pollution.Her show was cancelled.
One of her major sponsors, a car
dealer, was not pleased.

Planet warming? We could use some
warming up here! I recall an anti
global warming march in Amherst MA..

during a March snowstorm

I’m betting these dolts drove to where they blocked the train.

If I was the train engineer, I’d just lay on the horn until their eardrums fell out, while inching forward at 0.5 mph...

Blocking a semi loaded with hogs, a golden olde.

Trespassing? In New Hampshire in the winter it should be attempted murder.

As of right now, 27 with a few inches of snow predicted today.

It’s been quite cold since mid November and we already had a good snow storm, some is still on the ground. Clearly President Trump has solved global warming.

It takes a few football fields for a train to actually stop. A great defence

Biting the hand that feeds usually isn’t a bright idea.

Looks like they could use some global warming there.

I see that the Governor is a Republican. If he was a Dem, I was wishing for him to give in to the protesters’ demands.

If we were totally reliable on “renewables”, yesterday would have been a cold dark day for everyone here in the Midwest

The 145 five-hundred-foot tall Monuments to Gaia were sitting near motionless, and the solar panel fields were covered in 5 inches of global warming

We’d have been burning politicians for heat

Hmmm, I wonder if any of these protestors live in a nice big house with air conditioning....

Just curious.
