isn’t it like 20 degrees or something over there? Trust fund baby idiots.
Did they stop it?
And we can all freeze to death in the dark.
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...
Trespassing? In New Hampshire in the winter it should be attempted murder.
It takes a few football fields for a train to actually stop. A great defence
Looks like they could use some global warming there.
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.
No problem. Let them all freeze in the dark.
Have they thrown away their phones and computers in protest?
They’re just hurting working class New Hampshirites trying to heat their houses.
But, but, but.....
Hows poor Greta going to power her Tesla??
Give them a few lumps of coal for their Christmas (oops holiday) stocking and send them home.
Id be willing to bet that attempting to stop a train could be a very serious federal crime.
Could put a damper on this kind of behavior if charged properly...
Having experienced power failures during winter in Southeastern Massachusetts, I feel I am qualified to say that these alleged people are ENEMIES and should be treated accordingly.
I was born/raised in Wisconsin & spent much of my life in California & Nevada. EVEN I know that most of the power plants east of the Mississippi are fueled by coal. IIRC, they have shut down all the nuclear powered electricity sources.
I traversed the Pony Express Trail from St Joseph, Missouri to Virginia City, NV in 2001, along with a large group of other riders on horseback. 2000 miles-— 50 miles a day—5 days a week-—8 weeks. A trip of a lifetime.
The 2nd weekend we were at the fairgrounds at Mitchell, Nebraska, just west of Scott’s Bluff.
The COAL TRAINS came thru, west to east, about 3/4 mile south of our camp. The sound of the train whistles going thru the small town were music. 2 or 3 Yellow Diesel engines, and 120 cars-——EVERY 30 MINUTES. That works out to 120 cars X 48 = 5760 open freight cars FULL of coal for the power production east of the Mississippi, coming out of mines in Wyoming, etc, EVERY SINGLE DAY. That adds up to 2,102,400 cars in a 365 day year.
When our 2 day break was done, we continued to ride west, and about 3 miles from the fairgrounds, there was a 8 LANE switching yard——and every single train we saw had 120 cars....no more ... no less. I have no idea how many tons of coal were on each car, but it was a very impressive sight.
Funny how these same activists have laptop computers that need recharging-—cell phones that use chargers-—HUGE screen TV’s that use electricity-—drive electric cars that need to be recharged...and somehow they cannot connect the dots. I only went to a one room grade school-—but I certainly CAN connect the dots.
The IDIOTS who think that they can shut down the power fuel at their whim need to be shot. Sooner or later, they will cause an unimaginable problem, and only then will someone get their heads on straight.
