You're against global warming so you burn yourself to death
A “green” activist who was a pioneering lawyer for gay and transgender rights — including in the notorious “Boys Don’t Cry” rape murder case — committed suicide by setting himself on fire Saturday morning in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park in a grisly act of protest against the ecological destruction of the Earth.

Turns out David Buckel was a fossil fuel. How ironic.

Now that's real commitment to the cause. Eek

But didn't his burning contribute to global warming ?????

What was he thinking? Roll Eyes

Probably something along the lines of "AHHHHH! IT BURNS!"

I read this article this AM and literally giggled. A PERFECT example of the mental disorder known as liberalism.

I, and millions like me, have never heard of him until now and by tomorrow he will be completely forgotten.

But who knows, maybe he will start a trend among the "global warming" fakes. Ah one can dream.....

He should have waited until the next Burning Man festival.

Maybe he'll be an example for other liberals.

A shining example proving that liberalism is a mental disorder.

We can only hope...

I would piss on him to put the fire...not to save his life, I just don't want to hear the screaming.

Is there video? If not, this was a publicity fail. You can read about someone setting themselves on fire all day, but to look them in the eyes while they do it resonates.

Well, one positive is that he knows better now. On a range of topics.

This was my first thought as well.

But hey, self immolation is certainly a way to get your point across.

Once.
