Title: Eco-Terrorism Spreads!
Post by: Tillaway on May 11, 2003, 06:50:53 PM
I read this in the paper today.  It could effect us all in some ways.  Now what do we do about it.

Start electing Sheriffs that have the citizens at heart and don't mind being sent on a mission.  I think a lot of this could be stopped if Law Enforcement took it seriously and Judges didn't mind sticking some of the vandals in Jail.  It wouldn't hurt if we had some "not-so-leftwing" newpapers that would put that stuff on their backpage in little type too.

Threats, vandalism and personal harm are not free speech.

My neighbor raises Pit Bulls. We could chunk a few of these dudes in the pen, and see what happens.  ;D

I'm sure the dogs would calm right down, once they explained that they were just trying to help. ;D :o :o :o

These people are criminals. If it wasn't the forest it would be something else. Proof of this is that idiot that was an animal rights activast that spent 4 years in prison for firebombing. Now he's out and has found a new cause to express his criminal behaviour.  There are laws to protect people from vermin such as this and hopefully the laws will be enforced. Harrassment, tresspassing and destruction of property would be good for starters. >:(

You can bet they are all being watched, I am sure of that.   I could use a couple of them here as a snack for my 200lb dog.   ;D The left overs could be used to build up some depleted soils in the area. 8) 8)

They can call themselves by any name they choose or align thmeselves with any cause.  These people are terrorists and should be treated as such.

 I guess the U.S. can take out Osama and Saddam but we don't get any help with the ones in our own back yard until its to late.
