The Independent reports

More than a dozen protesters who clambered into holes dug for a high pressure gas pipeline said they had been found not responsible by a judge after hearing them argue their actions to try and stop climate change were a legal "necessity".

Karenna Gore, the daughter of former Vice President Al Gore, was among more than 198 people who were arrested because of their 2015 actions protesting the pipeline in West Roxbury, Massachusetts, a suburb of Boston. Thirteen people were to go on trial this week, though prosecutors downgraded their original criminal charges to one of civil infraction.

On [March 27], Judge Mary Ann Driscoll of West Roxbury District Court, found all 13 defendants not responsible, the equivalent of not guilty in a criminal case. She did so after each of the defendants addressed the judge and explained why they were driven to try and halt the pipeline's construction.

    The baby's cries were almost loud enough to damage one's hearing. Did it want food, or something else? No. At first glance, the baby was the only person in the room, but upon closer inspection, one would spot a hideous, obese man trying to forcibly jam his fat member into the baby girl's minuscule vagina. As a result, the baby was crying desperately. But wasn't this too much?

    Sure, it was the baby's first time being raped, but weren't its screams a bit dramatic? The man then concluded that the new generation was filled with entitled crybabies and jammed his cock deep into the baby's hole. One of them felt immense pleasure, and the other felt immense pain. "I'll teach you all you need to know about men," said the man. Now, it was time for the man to utilize it until he was satisfied.

    The man rapidly pumped his hips back and forth, completely ignoring the baby's screams. The man utilized it, and then utilized it some more. Utilize it! Utilize it! Utilize it! Suddenly, the man felt that things were about to get sticky, and shot everything he had into the baby's womb. The cock slowly emerged from the ravaged hole.

    "Too good!" the man exclaimed. The baby's genitals were now bleeding profusely, a fact which made the man smile in earnest. He knew what he had to do now. Though it was true that utilizing the baby as it was intended had brought the man extraordinary pleasure, in the end, its desperate cries were proof that it was rebelling against men. As such, the man threw the baby off the balcony of his apartment, which was on the fifteenth floor. As the baby screamed for its life, the man simply chortled. If it didn't want this to happen, why did it sneer at men? It was a mystery.

    Later, a passerby would find a baby smashed on the concrete in a parking lot. He knew. He knew that men's rights had won that day.
