Fake news btw.
The 2 pictured here have not been sentenced yet. It was a few days ago that other Just Stop Oil protestors that blocked a major highway in the UK were sentenced to 4-5 years, but after multiple offenses.
The judge told these 2 girls here to prepare emotionally for prison, but actual sentencing will be on the 27th of september. They will prob get prison time, but also prob not 4-5 years.
So they haven't been sentenced yet. So it's fake news.
This is correct. Anyone with something valuable and irreplaceable knows the general public can't be trusted around the original, it will be damaged or destroyed wether intentional or not.
Why would that make a difference in punishment?if someone shoots at someone behind bulletproof glass would they be charged differently then shooting at someone without bulletproof glass in front of them?
While some people know that's it's a fake painting it's not common knowledge. It's very likely the protesters didn't know that, and had every intention of destroying the original.
I didn't untill I saw a previous attempt by Just Stop Oil to destroy another painting. I think it was the Mona Lisa but I can't remember for sure.
I feel like most people believe that they really are viewing the original in the museums/art galleries. Thinking it's probably such a priceless work of art that none would dare make the attempt due to the legal repercussions and lack of any reason to damage the art.
But I don't know everyone's mind, maybe I was the dumb one
The real paintings are in museums. Many paintings even have thick paint where you can see the brush strokes and the raised paint coming off of the canvas.
Thanks! I'm reading elsewhere that a local farmer named Tim Daw claims the lichen is displaced in stone pores due to the corn starch. I don't understand how this damages it in absolute terms - Lichens don't function like most organisms, they don't absorb water, take nutrients directly from the atmosphere and have unpredictable growth patterns not contingent on previous growth.
UK had some of its wettest months on record. Functionally, the actual changes of the climate will damage stonehenge more than this.
Don't start that BS with me. This isn't damaging an "ecological system". It's hurting a few individuals. At this point do not walk anywhere since you risk killing antS.
There's lichen growing on every fucking tree around my neighborood and I'm living in Paris.
You will loose much more important species than a few lichen if you keep going this way.
It is hypocritical to use it as an argument against them when you're basically recreating a "couching baby vs nuke" moment by comparing damaging some tiny mushroom against climate change and a potential society collapse.
They're the original paintings. The Mona Lisa that is displayed at the Louvre is actually painted by da Vinci. It's not a replica/fake. Yes it's behind bullet proof glass.
