That...doesn't look like Greta at all. Oof, what happened to her? She used to look better

Absolute wild comment to make about someone who looks like a normal 21 year old

silence7 OP ,

There was a pedo-sexualization harassment campaign aimed at her when she was younger. Any reddit post mentioning her would get flooded with posts suggesting a desire to rape her. It was really ugly, and this feels like the tail end of that.

I mean there were few options for a guy named “John Law” other to become a judge right?

That's a legal way to say

Greta Thunberg: Case thrown because of 'bull shit argument made up by a stupid policeman'

AbouBenAdhem ,

District Judge John Laws...

Is this an example of nominative determinism at work?

solrize ,

TFA: Greta Thunberg and four co-defendants have been found not guilty of breaking the law when they refused to follow police instructions to move on during a climate protest.

District Judge John Laws threw out a public order charge due to "no evidence" and added police attempted to impose "unlawful" conditions during a protest.

Oh so they're like to charge the cops for trying to impose unlawful conditions right? right?

I hate the cops as much as everyone but thats not what the ruling says at all.

The case was thrown out not because the cope were doing anything illegal, but because their instructions to the protestors were so unclear they couldn't be considered a lawful order.

As well as the fact that the incompetent cops didn't take statements from anyone so there's no evidence to prove they violated section 14.

Honestly part of me suspects the cops might have did it on purpose because they were ordered to stop it but didn't really want to. But that's probably giving them too much credit honestly, incompetence is the most likely answer.
