Today, two Last Generation activist got onto a 'lift' in Berlin....then cut the top 2-meter off a Christmas tree near the Brandenburg Gate.
Cops? They were there as the two came down, and a third person (probably at the controls)....detaining/arresting the three.
I don't think the cops even wised-up until the dynamic duo unfurled a banner announcing themselves.
Crime? Property damage is about you can charge them with. Section 304 of the criminal code.....damage to objects of public interest....probably would be the charge involved. Most you'd get? Usually a fine related to the cost of the item, and police-man-hours. Jail-time? Generally, under 304....you could get up to 3 years, but for Christmas tree cutting....I kinda doubt that you'd give the threesome more than a week or two in jail....with a fine.
It would shock me if they can even cite a criminal act involving Christmas trees....for the past fifty years in Germany.
The problem here....you get front-page coverage, and 99-percent of people see the action as juvenile or the act of a 8-year old kid. They just aren't winning sympathy from the general public for stuff like this.
It wouldn't shock me if the court ordered them to stay in jail until their court appearance (probably not to occur until mid-Feb).....to make a point.
Who is advising the 'kids' on the actions to take? It just begs questions who dreams up the agenda for them.
(The cynical side of me would like to see a dozen non-Last Generation folks team up and just create chaos in the name of the Last Generation agenda....by dumping duck feathers on the street.....painting bridges pink....etc.)
