These are incredibly selfish, disrespectful, socially irresponsible, could-care-less people. I have no respect or pity for stupid, ignorant, unrepentant people who will-fully and stubbornly make their own bad personal dangerous choices, especially when they threaten the health of the greater number/society.

-Pipeline protesters influenced by a lawless David Suzuki who predicts explosions and “blowing ups”.
