LOVE that. The power-mad self righteous environazis are so sure of the correctness of their position that they’re trying to stack the deck. Again.
Another example of environmental elitism to try and pick your judge. As if these people and their cause is just so special they can pick the judge they prefer. Elitism that knows no bounds.
