    The problem is that the media coverage perpetuates the disarray that they cause. When some idiot jumps out of the stands and runs around the field at a baseball game, the commentators make no mention of it and there’s no footage on the TV.

    On to more important matters. Is the Heineken sold in Holland the good old brew(Heineken Classic)? The stuff they sell in the states is absolute dreck.

    There are 2 ways of looking at it:
    - crack down of eco-activists within the limits of the law, and that doesn't seems to work.
    - give them the publicity they crave for, in an attempt to diffuse their actions, and bring the ecology debate in the open.

    This is just like illegal migrants, squatters, or delinquants in general, our laws are powerless to tackle these problems.
    Western countries have been preaching the Rest of the World about Human Rights, and that comes back to bite them in the ass!
    If an authority starts to be less lenient, it is immediatly accused of fascist tendency and taken to court.

    I agree. That stuff is so damn bitter. It isn’t even hoppy, it’s just plain bitter.

    I do agree with your last point...They've made the bed.

    Now we lie in it.

    It's not just in Europe. Here in the US the lack of prosecution for crimes has led to an utter explosion of crime and has literally caused the extinction of once fine cities like San Francisco.

    Regarding these "protesters," If you just look at them, you can tell they're either profoundly stupid and merely sheep or they're professional instigators. Treating them with anything but crushing retaliation is only exacerbating the issue. If these people really cared about what they're protesting about... they wouldn't block roads and do the things they do which make people hate them. I'm an art lover and collector. When I see some jobless piece of crap throw paint on a fine work of art in some sort of protest, it literally makes me want to go grab a Harp seal and drown in a barrel of crude oil.... and I love animals... that's how made these losers make me.

    Back to racing... I do love this track with the banked corners. I'm looking forward to this one.

    The banked corners are awesome. I would love to be able to drive that track.
