These assholes again.

Priest, 82, and retired teacher, 85, smash case holding copy of Magna Carta in environmental protest

The glass case containing an original copy of the Magna Carta at the British Library in London was smashed by two environmental activists on Friday, causing minor damage to the reinforced box but leaving the historic document unscathed.

The pair of protesters from Just Stop Oil, a group that has caused widespread disruption in Britain in its campaign to end to the world’s reliance on fossil fuels, pounded on the case with a hammer and chisel.

Elsewhere, Congressman Jim Bob Coalroll (R-BigOil) issued a statement declaring that
” these ancient hippie vandals are completely typical of the kind of clueless, drug addled communists and flake-type people who think we can power civilization with 12 volt organic solar cells hung from the roof of the Unabomber’s outhouse.”

OK, I made up the second paragraph, but this kind of “protest” is music to the ears of climate change denialists.
