Greta Thunberg arrested by Netherlands police
 
Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg was arrested by the police of the Netherlands last Saturday.

Forget her more peaceful Fridays for Future movement. Now, she has joined the violent Extinction Rebellion and they blocked the motorway. Police reportedly used water cannon to disperse the protesters.

She's been part of the protests that are blocking roadways for quite some time. One has to wonder if her parents are also part of that group.

Is she at least an adult now? When she started she was just an autistic minor who dropped out of school who was hailed as singing the gospel.

No. It was Greta who convinced her mother, a well-known opera singer, to give up flying.
