Climate Activists Try To Block Train Filled With Coal. Train Does NOT Stop

When dozens of activists stand in front of an oncoming train in the dark of night, as a way to protest “man-made” climate change, is the conductor of the train responsible if he runs them over?

Instead of a sign that says "Do Not Disturb" I need one that says "Already Disturbed Proceed With Caution."

No, no he's not.

What they are protesting is capitalism. Pure and simple.

They are socialists experiencing white guilt. God Bless Them.

Nope.

If stupid liberals/socialists are dumb enough to stand in front of a freight train hauling coal...  in the middle of the night it becomes a "natural selection" thing.

Well well looks like we have a darwin award candidate. Looks like these enviro protestors should have spent a little more time learning about trains instead of making up unrealistic nonsense demands that won't work. Its never a bright idea to step out in front of something that takes 1 mile to stop.

Yep.  Even if the conductor wanted to stop, doesn't mean that he would have been able to.  The protesters stepped out of the way at the last minute, so it's unclear if this is a Darwin award or just pathetic attention whoring.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

It's attention whoring, combined with a belief that their lives are as valuable as they think. There's no way that phone call was from a random passerby. They phoned it in themselves believing that would stop the train. They just don't have the conviction of a true zealot, yet. Give it time. One of these morons will eventually work up the courage to do what us necessary.

I just feel bad for the railway workers that'll have to clean up the mess.

So I looked it up. They called the emergency line themselves, they apparently pulled the same stunt a week earlier and the train stopped. This time it didn't, the original article led me to believe they didn't jump, but they did. Police were on scene to arrest them anyway.

This is interesting because protestors protesting in illegal spots should be arrested, but when its a road they almost never are. I tried to figure out if you are liable for hitting a protestor in a car if your just edging forward. The answer is basically no in a red state provided you excercise due care, and in a blue state like minnesota you could get a ticket if the public throws a fit, as did this jeffrey rice guy. My basic plan is to avoid any place a protester would want to be.

Thanks for the info. I would have bet money they called it in themselves. When I was in college back in 2005, I took what I thought would be a cakewalk course called Social Justice. I had never heard of such a thing, but it sounded like an easy A. The teacher was an absolute radical, though. Everyone, including self-professed democrats, thought he was too extreme. We were taught tactics for protesting, avoiding arrest, creating dynamic cellular networks, and general disruption. This is straight of his playbook. I didn't take it seriously at the time; no one did. Little did we know that he was the forerunner for the progressive movement.

On a side note, it was the only course in which I received a C. I tried to convince the class to handcuff ourselves to the desks and protest until we all received A's in the class, but no one had the courage to do it. He would have caved SO fast. It would have been a huge ego boost for that guy. Unfortunately, I ended up having to write a paper that was supposed to rail against capitalism, and I guess I wasn't convincing enough.

You should've been able to write a decent paper on the weaknesses of Capitalism. For instance,  the health crisis we're enduring because Capitalism supplies an a continually available abundance of food leading to epidemic levela of obesity and diabetes. Or the mental health crisis experienced by people like Mikesez because the easy existence of the Middle Class creates self imposed feelings of guilt and depression. There's lots of ways if you'd been creative with the assignment. But the handcuffs would've been great to read about in the paper.

A class called "Social Justice" does not educate.  It indoctrinates.  The thesis for your paper is pretty much proof of that.

Odd.  I took psych instead, back in 2002.  The Prof decided to structure the curriculum around what she thought were the landmark experiments in psychology, and over the last few years it's come out that most of those results can't be duplicated and the results are probably invalid.  At least you got a more interesting story out of your class.  Both of us got gypped in terms of actual knowledge though.

Keep in mind, social justice as we know it wasn't on the radar back then. I was surprised it was even allowed. FSU had a relatively balanced social sciences department back then. Everyone in the class knew that professor was radical, even the liberals. That's not the case today, I'm certain.

I thought I took a bad course back then, but now I'm glad I took it. I'm not oblivious to the fact that this stuff is designed to look spontaneous, when the reality is that it's coordinated and supported.

It is funny trying to find the background for many famous psychological study’s. Foul play was certainly common back in the early days of research. I am beginning to think anything prior to the early 80’s is of dubious quality at best and on par with anecdota. But then again, who knows if it is any different now. Even the supposed gold standard of randomized controlled double blinds are p-gamed by pharmaceuticals to show even the smallest of results as effectual.
