Just another day in the alternate universe of Boulder, Colorado.

Strange, I didn't hear of any such baring here in the South Florida area. Perhaps the mosquito and deer fly and horse fly populations kept 'em away.

Those GangGreen bachelor's children don't mind asking me to ride a bike in the heat and bugs, but they won't do it even once for a demo of the soundness of their "idea".

And when they were finished, they got in their fossil-fueled cars and drove home. Morons.

Some people really do have to much time on their hands. And what is to say that some pervert in the group came up with this stunt for some self-gratification. What DUMmies.

Where are these twits in February...?

Sitting in their homes, burning the evil blood of the mother earth. Like everyone else who does not choose hypothermia over principle. They just have time on their hands in the spring, not being fettered with jobs and other such uncivilized pursuits.

Almost every single one of these nincompoops will pat themselves on the back and say "I did MY part to help the environment." and then they'll wake up tomorrow in their air conditioned home with two cars in the garage and generate several cubic feet of garbage and waste twice as much water and electricity as they actually need to use and so on.

But they get a pass because they care and because they did their part.

This ex-pat spectator has obviously never seen a streaker at a cricket game in Australia.

"A group of uninhibited people looking for any reason to take their clothes off in public, offend as many people as possible and further degrade the public discourse joined an international protest Saturday by riding their bikes through town naked."

There, I fixed it. The media presents these weirdos/semi-perverts as 'Uninhibited' as if those who keep their privacy and respect the preferences of others are somehow 'Inhibited'. Pure BS IMHO.

We have another nearby thread showing Moslem girls dressed to the hilt playing basketball.

Given the choice of watching them or a bunch of nekkid guys riding bicycles in downtown Denver, ..................

I've mentioned antinomianism before ~ this ain't it.

Not to mention taking showers in hot water fueled by gas hotwater heaters, cooked on natural gas stoves, etc, etc, etc. If these clowns had to do without fossil fuel for one day they couldn't survive.

And of course, the MSM makes it out to be that "Environmentalists" are mainstream.
