I'm pleased to note that at least you do recognise that this is wanton
criminal damage - and not legitimate protest. May be we are getting
somewhere with you Doug?

Hardly, when you compare it to the criminal damage caused by
unnecessary wars, all of which are denied voter choice and are
therefore not legitimate in any way, unlike the protests against them,
which are morally legitimate despite being outlawed by the State.

Was this criminal damage also denied voter choice?
