When protesters block a road, they’re not striking a blow at whatever they are angry at, just inconveniencing people who have nothing to do with it. In Peru, an American, fed up with this nonsense, shot and killed two climate protesters. While he was arrested, he did become a hero for anyone who has been caught up in this leftist bullshit.
The NY Post reports:
Kenneth Darlington, 77, was seen Tuesday casually approaching a group of demonstrators blocking the Pan-American highway in the Chame sector, in protest of a proposed mining contract for a Canadian company.
He was filmed waving his gun around and began waving his finger while arguing with the demonstrators — before ultimately firing, according to footage and police.
Seeing the protest, Darlington had allegedly earlier told the people he was traveling with, “This ends today,”…
Darlington is an American lawyer, with dual U.S./Peruvian citizenship. He also wasn’t f*cking around:
The altercation reportedly began when Darlington, apparently frustrated with the blockade the group caused, got out of his vehicle and confronted the protesters.
A few men at the scene then approached him and tried to calm him down, when the argument began.
One of the demonstrators could be heard saying, “Why don’t you shoot?” while others shouted at Darlington, “Are you going to kill someone?” to which he replied, “Do you want to be the first?”
When you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes and the guy begging to be shot got his wish. Have a gander:

The first man shot, died at the scene and the second man who was hit in the shoulder was transported to the hospital where he died.
Darlington was arrested on murder and illegal gun possession charges, but because of Peruvian law, may end up never seeing a day in prison. Apparently, because he is so old, he would just be placed under house arrest for the remainder of his life.
I suspect that him being a lawyer means he fully understands the law of Peru and may actually be justified in his use of force. It is unlikely he would gun down two protesters in full view of dozens of witnesses and cameras if he knew it was illegal. On the other hand, if there were some aspect of the law that allows for deadly force in such a circumstance, he would smoke those muthas.
Whatever the case, this guy just became a hero to everyone who has ever been trapped by a social justice road blockade/peaceful riot. He did what everyone wishes they could do in a similar situation. If more people were shot for blocking the road, less people would do it.
On the plus side, he hooked those climate activists up by reducing their carbon footprint. That is substantially more than what the activists would have achieved with their stupid protest.
