Academy Award-winning actress Jane Fonda has been arrested for a fourth time protesting climate change on Capitol Hill and will spend the night in jail.

Does she think she is helping?

Don't get me started on her. . .

While I admire her passion, courage and dedication, I could not do it. Good for her, for championing for such a worthy cause. She has my respect.

Unlike the majority of posters on this forum, I like and respect Jane Fonda.  I don't always agree with her but on this latest protest, I do.  I met her and saw her that same evening on Okinawa when she (unbeknownst to me) was on her way to Hanoi.  Feelings in that era were really mixed on "the war" (I feel she made a really bad call) but let me tell you what it was like to see her and Donald Sutherland that evening.  The entire audience was military or DoD civilians, including many teachers; some of us felt we were literally risking our jobs and we (me included) disguised ourselves by borrowing one another's wigs, glasses and outfits).  It was a good thing we did, because there were videographers filming entire audience (Fonda's team or U.S. Government?).  Many years later our group was in a photo in Jane's autobiography!!The largely military audience was very loudly enthusiastic about the show.

Well, for crying out loud, I protest climate change also; but it happens with every season. It has been that way all my life. It seems to be something natural.

Live well, love the earth. I think that's all we can do as individuals. As for big industry--try harder.

I hope she enjoys her evening. Rich people getting arrested on purpose knowing they don't really have any repercussions tend to annoy me.

She should have stayed in Viet Nam, posing on their tank.

Hanoi Jane, traitor:
