Feds Plan to Lock Up Pipeline Protesters Who Break the Law
We've said, for years, that it's just fine to be a clueless idiot and protest pipelines, fracking, drilling, fossil fuels--whatever. BUT, protesting doesn't give you the right to illegally block a legal activity, like building (or operating) a pipeline, drilling a shale well, etc. Irrational anti-fossil fuelers are trying to excuse their illegal, anarchist behavior by claiming it's somehow free speech or freedom of expression. WRONG. And now, the federal government is in the process of revising its criminal guidelines to ensure such behavior sees jail time and stiff fines.
