They deserve longer. No time is gonna bring that Van Gogh back, so their sentence shouldn't be for a set amount of time. Burn them

Good. Seeing people attack public works of art infuriates me.

If you assault (shove, punch in the face) someone doing this, what are the odds you get prosecuted? Is there any aspect of the law that would allow you to use force to protect public property?

The stop oil people are the dumbest of the dumb

They wear and use oil daily and don't even realize it. They think oil is only used for transportation

All high-end art in galleries is under protective glass to keep people from damaging it but these people are idiots. They did it again today to some more paintings

quote:

A pair of paintings by Dutch maestro Vincent van Gogh at London's National Gallery were vandalized Friday when climate activists splattered what appeared to be tomato soup on them. The incident came just hours after two activists with the Just Stop Oil environmental group were sentenced to at least 20 months in prison for a similar act two nearly two years ago.



quote:

The three activists – also with Just Stop Oil – involved in Friday's incident were arrested while the paintings were removed, examined and then returned to their location. The gallery said the exhibition would reopen later on Friday.

Maybe the prison will have non-petroleum lube.

Or maybe guards will just go in dry.

Destroying timeless works of art is a crime against humanity and should be treated as such.

Would love to see a security guard just club each of them in the knees while they are trying to give their dumbass speech.
