I know you guys romanticize to an unhealthy degree about Andy and the joys of Mayberry and such, but in this case Barney's got backup 1,053 strong. I think they got it covered, even if Otis acts up.

 

And I know your tune would be different had it been some sort of conservative group that had done this.

 

There is a way to demonstrate and a way not to demonstrate. This is not the way.

 

Police, firemen, EMTs, etc are all vital resources. They have real protect and/or serve jobs to do.

 

I hope these clowns are prosecuted.

I heard from a P&G employee that they came in on helicopter. Only security upgrade would be patrolling the rooftops.

 

I also spoke to an engineer that's dealt with over 150 companies in Cincinnati, and he said P&G is by far the most environmentally conscious company he's ever dealt with. However, they way the building sit, they were an easy target.

 

That's a shame but would not surprise me at all.

I think this might be a win win for both groups. Greenpeace gets their publicity and P & G gets some sympathy and a chance to put out there what steps they've taken to be environmentally conscious, which should generate good publicity for them. Losers would be P & G security and anyone downtown who might have been inconvenienced, including the first responders.

That's what I hope happens and my PG stock goes up.

The GreenPeace Lady is on 700wlw right now. The more she talks, the more I want to see GreenPeace charge with crimes as well. Could this event not be seen as Terrorist actions?

I'm not understanding the helicopter thing. Can they fly where ever they want and not raise red flags?

She was answering ,but not the questions that were asked.Cunningham told her she better find out the visiting hrs. at Chilacothe.

Doors, locks, and windows....

 

And now they have to heighten security for the future. That costs money as well.

Gosh, you got me signed up for all the other libbie causes as well since you're building that box around me? I have no love for Greenpeace and find people who get that caught up in causes to be a bit ridiculous. By the same token I find the overreaction in this case about first responders being tied up at the scene as though Cincinnati is a one-cop town to be a bit much as well.

Perhaps but it would appear they should have been at that security level anyway.

Having been to P&G countless times in my lifetime (My mom worked there 25 years, and Dad just retired from there in 2012), I can say their security is infinitely better than almost any other building I've ever set foot in downtown.

I was told that I was dumb when I said the exact same thing yesterday at work. Well minus the part about the family stuff.

Although I would consider myself a tree-hugger of sorts, I do not condone damage of property nor do I think it is a good decision to put people's lives at risk...even the protestors.

I get that Greenpeace has an agenda that is in most cases worthy of attention, but their tactics are nothing more than terroristic. I'm honestly surprised that more of them do not get killed in these stunts. We have enough difficulty in this country with keeping companies productive and profitable and these kinds of actions only serve to bring that down. Why can't they just dress in rat costumes like the unions do when they protest at Duke Energy ? That's way more fun to watch from Starbucks. The individuals will be represented by donor money and likely plead down and not do any time. If an individual scaled the wall of the Carew Tower or any other building downtown, broke locks, trespassed, etc…they would hang them. I wonder if any of these individuals truly understand what a felony conviction will do to their long term futures ? I get it, you're possessed by your cause, just don't interrupt my future by your actions. That's my rant for the day, I have to go grill a seal steak on hardwood chips now….

And yet it still was not good enough. You can bet the holes will filled.
