The End of the Rule of Law in the West Part 2 By Richard Miller (London)

The Chauvin trial, along with the failure to prosecute antifa/BLM urban terrorists in 2020 by blue state anarcho-tyranny authorities in the US, is being matched here in the UK. We have the grooming rapes of perhaps as million children that the police ignored for as long as they could because, well, we would not want to be racist would we, prosecuting non-white rapists? Then the following becomes standard:

“Six Extinction Rebellion protesters have been cleared of causing criminal damage, despite a jury being told by the judge there was no defence in law for their actions.

Activists targeted Shell's London HQ, claiming the oil firm was directly contributing to climate change. 

It was part of wider demonstrations across the capital on 15 April 2019.

Judge Gregory Perrins said that even if their actions were "morally justified", that did not provide a lawful excuse.

Southwark Crown Court had heard that each of the defendants deliberately sprayed graffiti or smashed windows at the Shell building in Belvedere Road, central London.

The six acquitted activists were:

  • Simon Bramwell, 49 (co-founder of Extinction Rebellion) from Stroud, Gloucestershire
  • Ian Bray, 53 (co-founder) from Holmfirth, West Yorkshire
  • Jane Augsburger, 55, from Stroud
  • Senan Clifford, 60, from Stroud
  • David Lambert, 62, from Stroud
  • James "Sid" Saunders, 41, from Stroud

With the exception of Mr Saunders - who claimed he honestly believed Shell's employees and shareholders would have consented to the damage he caused - the judge had told the jury: "They don't have any defence in law for the charges they face."

After deliberating for just over seven hours, the jury of seven women and five men cleared the defendants of all charges.

Before reaching their verdicts, the jurors had asked to see a copy of the oath they took when they were sworn in.

 

The six, who represented themselves, were also cleared of individual counts of having an article with intent to destroy or damage property. 

They told the court they had targeted the Shell building because the company was directly contributing to climate change, "thereby causing serious injury and death".

They argued their actions were a "necessary" and "proportionate" response to the harm being caused. 

Prosecutor Diana Wilson had told the court that while some protesters merely stood outside the building holding banners or speaking through megaphones, "these defendants went further".

She added: "The seven involved caused significant damage."

Thus, Leftists will be able to get away with anything. This bs should have been stopped by the “good men” in the 1960s, but as usual, was let go to fester. Now we have full-on social gangrene!
