GREG GUTFELD: We finally see what happens when you push the good guys too far

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
I want to take a trip across the pond to a place called the UK. It used to mean the UK, but now it stands for the unhinged morons versus a group of weak-minded monsters called Just Stop Oil. After seeing them, you wish they would stop breathing. You saw their protest.
They block off rush hour traffic, which makes them as persuasive as Alec Baldwin teaching gun safety, because nothing inspires societal change better than acting like a total god. But last week, when they did a traffic stunt, it happened.
Nothing like applauding violence. I agree. A furious motorist steps in to lift the blockade, but have the police taken the side of the working-class guy? The productive member of society who was just trying to get to work? Or the indecisive fools who haven’t had sex since the Thatcher era?

It’s incredible. The police handcuffed the driver. Maybe because he just doesn’t have the right policy that would allow him to break the law. If only he was a drag queen rushing to the library to read to the orphans. But we see it more and more. Here’s the hierarchy – protesters who have all the time in the world but nowhere to go are allowed to break the law and interfere with your life.
And the guy who steps in because the cops won’t, well, he’s the thug. So a bunch of idiots get legal protection. And if you do something, the cops will arrest you. It is as if the country was run by an inbred family.

So the problem is obvious: we are supposed to calculate the amount of suffering that accompanies hurting a protester. But you can’t do the same for the suffering caused by protesters – people who missed job interviews or have to go to a doctor’s appointment or need to see a hair specialist. excessive back.
Meanwhile, there’s another Brit – oh you’ll love it – an 18-year-old **** named Mizzy from London who films himself committing real crimes. So he’s like Hunter Biden, but with pants. For example, here is the charming guy who steals a woman’s dog in a park.

Yeah. Did I mention he also likes to enter strangers’ homes?

Hmm. Wow. Great prank. Try that in Texas and he’d have more holes in him than a centipede’s bowling ball. He also harasses the women telling them that they are going to die.

And to top it off, he threatens the Jews. I mean, what is he trying to do, audition for MSNBC? Now Mizzy pretends he’s just a jolly prankster trying to get noticed. But with that logic, Jeffrey Dahmer was just auditioning for a spot on “Top Chef.” But after two weeks of terrorizing people, he’s finally arrested, but frankly, “Rust” goes faster. So what is his defense? Well, it’s pranks, you know, the same way that stopping traffic is protest. He also adds, “I’m a black man. That’s why there’s such an uproar,” which really means he assumed he could get away with it because he was a black man. In technical terms, this is called Smollettitis.

But I don’t blame him for thinking he’s above the law because so many people are — these protesters are. And let’s not forget that we have seen over 100 days of rioting, looting, assaults, $2 billion in damage, up to 40 people killed, and courthouses and courthouses set on fire. But we haven’t seen mass arrests or mass convictions. So many people are above the law, and all because we excuse the madness. And now you can do anything because you are fighting oppression even when there is no oppression around you.
Like people blocking traffic, they win because those hardworking people in cars are bad. And if one of those drivers accidentally hits a protester, well, you know who the bad guy would be. Even if the protester put his own life in danger. And imagine if someone shot that teenager when he broke into his house. Who would be the bad guy then, even if this punk had put his own life in danger?
You and I know. This is where we are. It’s a moral twist where cops handcuff a regular Joe, protesters get protection, and the criminals who film their exploits gain infamy until the public intervenes. It’s happened here before with Daniel Penny.

Penny saw some weirdo on the subway threatening innocent people and he stepped in because no one else would. Now Penny has been charged with manslaughter for doing the cops job, just like that motorist did the cops job. I guess you’re going to see more of them, people doing the cops’ job. The fact is that militants and criminals have exploited their human prey to be mostly peaceful. We’re nice people, but we’re finally seeing what happens when you push those nice people too far. And the answers? Vigilantism? Or is it a public service? At this point, who knows? It’s just a necessity.
