Hippie boobies!

Unimpressed

Wow, Canada's getting a lot of green lights today.

Calm and reasonable? That doesn't sound like the Reform Alliance Conservative Party I know.

We're still talking about the same Harper who stifles his cabinet to keep the most tight control over parliament he can right?

Aarontology: Canada must have picked up some serious dirt on Drew with those radio receiver coins they put out.

We've got pictures of him drinking Bud Light.

For shiat's sake, if you're farking dumb enough to just wear a t-shirt in Ottawa in winter, you deserve what you get.

Fark Greenpeace, and fark the Green Party who still won't take me off their mailing lists five years after I joined (and subsequently left) in a bout of student stupidity, despite many strongly worded letters (which in Canadian means I didn't say thank-you and used at least two exclamation points).

"The fact is, wearing a T-shirt that says Greenpeace on it does not mean that you're going to do something out of line," she said...

...just that your parents lie to their friends about what you do for a living.

FTA: "The fact is, wearing a T-shirt that says Greenpeace on it does not mean that you're going to do something out of line,"

True. Wearing a Greenpeace T-shirt means you are an ignorant enviro-nazi and should be shot on sight.

Good job, Canada. Banning stuff is awesome, and always has the desired effect.

Same here. I prolly used up more trees in the junk mail they sent me than I could have possibly saved in becoming a member.

If I had to choose one who should cease to exist, greenpeace or peta.

Decisions, decisions.

I've always hated green peas ...

If they are soliciting for a donation and use a prepaid envelope, tape it to a brick and put it in a drop box.

It will cost them quite a bit to buy a brick. This works for all kinds of junk mail.

I don't think that applies so much here. They're banned on Parliamentary property only - anywhere else, wear and flag wave away. Nobody here outside the group and some freedom of speech advocates (which is limited here anyway) really gives a shiat. So I think it will work out just fine.

Rodddxl: FTA: "The fact is, wearing a T-shirt that says Greenpeace on it does not mean that you're going to do something out of line,"

Nah, ignorant implies that you have the capacity to gain and parse relevant information. I think most of Greenpeace is straight-up stupid.

"The fact is, wearing a T-shirt that says Greenpeace on it does not mean that you're going to do something out of line," she said.

No it just means they have a reason to watch you more carefully now that the the organization has been associated with orchestrating parliamentary disruption and easy breach of security.

"I think they need to have a measured and reasonable response."

Yeah, they should put a giant "Greenpeace sucks" banner on their HQ. But they're held to a higher standard and rightfully so.

At least there's one thing they all have in common - they're all attention whores.

Gorgor wins

What, "Greenpeace is a non-governmental organization for the protection and conservation of the environment"? Doesn't sound so bad.

Oh wait, this is Fark, and I'm not a man without my tiny-penised, ignorant, baseless contempt for people who care about things besides cars, sports, and the Simpsons.

Oh, I couldn't be coerced with mad blowjobs to care less about greenfleas or pita, I'm just saying this "banning" usually doesnt work so well. Bandanas not being allowed in clubs means theres never any violence in bars, banning booze in the states in the 30's was awesome, and I'm sure there are many other examples, but as I said before, try to make me care.

FunkOut: Ban t-shirts, yeah, that's the ticket. Instead of doing something stupid like, I dunno, improving the goddamn security where the national government meets? A bunch of environmental protesters managed to climb the freaking roof. That's an embarrassment. Actual terrorists would have blown the whole thing up already.

What exactly would be the loss here?

maybe you should not stop at their words and judge them by their actions like a reasonable member of adult society.

ie, ignoring causes that need them in favour of cute animals like seals that are not only far from endangered but are over populated and causing the endangerment of a several fish species while starving to death in droves.

I suppose though that since Green Peace favors Nature's controls over man's that's more humane, after all a quick club to the head is sooooo much more inhumane than standing in front of them with green peace signs saying you support them while they get sick and starve to death while Dolphins in the California region are disapearing.

FART!

Nope, that's not why you're not a man. You're not a man based on your inability to understand that what people say and what people do might be two different things.

LOL yeah, I definitely see your point.

I bet you smell like patchouli.

That's right, it's all about our ability to know what we say and do are two different things.

/don't worry, I'll take the garbage out

I thought Canada had free speech laws and this kind of sh*t doesn't happen...

In theory. In practical terms, Greenpeace is a large-scale money-laundering scheme (nowadays) and the branches that actually do things for the environment are known mostly for ignorance of actual environmental science and crossing the line into criminal behavior.

A couple decades ago, they were also involved in a lot of domestic terrorism, international terrorism, and piracy. The reforming of the organization took the form of a lot of arrests and legal beat-downs, as the organization made no real effort to reform itself. They were the worst side of the environmental movement in every respect: violent, ignorant, and most annoyingly counterproductive.

There, I managed to give you the actual reasons no one likes Greenpeace without making fun of you for taking their stated goals at face-value or suggesting that you'd make a great scientologist. Happy now?

whidbey: I thought Canada had free speech laws and this kind of sh*t doesn't happen...

Any "right" Her Majesty may grant Canadians is 100% revocable and subject to conditions. If you read the Charter you will see that there are no "shall no be infringed" or things like that.

You're so right. Here in Canada we live under the terrible oppression of the Queen. Anybody who dares speak out against her rule is taken away and tortured in prison camps.

What the fark are you talking about? The monarch has no authority and is only granted the right of adviser. Canadian parliament has full control over the constitution and charter of rights and freedoms by the constitution act of 1982.

Do you know that animals are gay? Fark _nature

Holy Fark people!

Try getting into most any governments legislature, house of the lords, senate...

There are standards. Usuaully those standards include not disrupting the process in any way.
