@RafalsReturn@ShaykhSulaiman Oh shit. Yeah, with only 10% of them left they might be outnumbered by people throwing bricks at their own heads and staggering about like toddlers. We might die laughing.
@twoseabees@oxfordtoafrica@PaulBrandITV Good point. But even with the discount, a violent crime (of which riot is included) ought to carry a higher punishment than a peaceful one.
@oxfordtoafrica@PaulBrandITV But still not as heavy as the Extinction Rebellion protestors faced. This is really sending the wrong message. Rioting is deemed a lesser offence than peaceful protest?
If you get 5 years for sitting in a road or suggesting that, but fewer for smashing up a shop, what advice is the judiciary sending to campaigners like Extinction Rebellion?
