Hippies want something...

Beret: check.
Pretentious beard: check.
Turtleneck: probably.
Absurd philosophy and self-righteous attitude that will potentially culminate in a petty symbolic act with little bearing on the course of world events while wasting plenty of people's time: of course.

I don't really care about the politics of the situation one way or another, and that's not why I posted this here. Rather, I just like pointing and laughing at pathetic tools.

As much as I agree that this is a ridiculous move that will amount to nothing...

That pic doesn't look like any hippie I ever knew...more like the beatniks that preceded the hippies...pretentious beret-wearing hipsters...

Actually, I think the one edge I have on them is I know I'm a jerk...

What the hell is a "pretentious beard". That's like saying Ron Jeremy has an "overbearing cock".

Just remember that those who protest are always in the position of weakness....and that is usually for a reason.

You know, one might say it wasn't really "overbearing," so much as it may have been "cocky."

Yeah, like that wimp Gandhi, or that sandal wearing, peace and love hippie Jesus -- talk about a pretentious beard!

Uh, I linked you a pic, what more do you need?

Damn beatniks and their make-out parties.

But But.. The petition is as radical as the Declaration of Independence, and it draws on that tradition in claiming a universal jurisdiction when governments fail to do what they're supposed to do... How could they be wrong

Bush is a war criminal, Nuremberg Principle VI(a)(1). He should be arrested and brought to trial. Why attack a voice for justice?

A beard trimmer would be a good start.

When I was a kid in Springfield, Mass (early 60's) the parents of one of my best friends were beatniks..."Wow daddy-o" they bore a pretty strong resemblance to the pic in the OP...

Daims has been circulating documents that claim the community acquires a "universal jurisdiction" to take such steps "when governments breach their highest duties."

"We have the full power to issue indictments, conduct trials, incarcerate offenders and do all other acts which Independent jurisdictions may of right do," the statement says.

Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell, a Democrat whose office has repeatedly sued the Bush administration over environmental issues, said the move was "of very dubious legality."

Are these "hippies" Constitutional legal geniuses?

No, just attention whoring boobs.
