A pair of climate protesters was arrested Wednesday after allegedly spraying the Stonehenge monument in England with orange paint, according to local authorities.

The protesters, from the group Just Stop Oil, sprayed the monument with orange paint Wednesday, one day ahead of the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, the environmental activist group said in a statement on the social platform X.

The two individuals were “demanding the incoming government sign up to a legally binding treaty to phase out fossil fuels by 2030,” Just Stop Oil said.

Wiltshire Police told The Associated Press (AP) the two protesters were arrested near Salisbury, England, on suspicion of damaging one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Everyone knows that Stonehenge is responsible for much of the climate change we’re experiencing.

Good point. And what is their carbon footprint? How did they get to Stonehenge? Did they drive a car? Take a bus? Hitchhike? Do they have cellular phones which are going to be dependent in some way on fossil fuels?

Can they provide documentation that they bought carbon credits with Al Gore to neutralize all of their carbon footprint?

Because whoever gives them that richly-deserved ass-kicking will end up in prison.

The knowledge that the government would come down on anyone who laid a finger on the environmentalists with an iron fist.

Works for me. This is destruction, not protest.

interrogate, by any means, all their connections, then, may they disappear, the lot of them!
To some folks, they are just stones. To others, they are way much more.I’m in this group.

Imagine some sheepdip coming to America, and “doing” Chaco Canyon, or America’s own Stonehenge, or one of the places near Sedona?

These “climate” terrorists should be forced to live in a mud hut in Africa. No running water, either.
