Is Earth Lib Front Burning Left Coast Mansions

[Mule]

6 Mansions outside Seattle were set afire, w/ 5 currently burning. Earth Liberation Front sign was left at the scene. You'd think they wouldn't pick on fellow lefties.

Long as they get their names in the paper, what do they care? It is not like they are looking for donations.

[legion]

Hmmm...sounds like the kind of thing Ingrid Newkirk would give money to.

[sammyg2]

If they come near here I'll loan em 5 gallons of gas, but they'll have to wear it as I search for my lighter.
There is nothing worse IMO than lefty liberal wackos who feel it is their right to tell others how to live.

[bell]

arson is a pretty serious crime......kinda makes me sick......
what's being done about it?

Amen.

I'm not sure which is worse, the ones in Congress or the ones with jerry cans. Either way, I end up with less for myself.

This area is a haven for these lunatics. They have now quite rightly been labelled as "eco-terrorists". Their list of favorite pastimes (in addition to burning down new homes) is really quite extensive.

Spiking trees is one of the more popular. They used to drive railroad spikes into trees in timber sales areas. The idea is to have the saws at the mills hit these spikes, causing them to explode and hopefully injure or kill the operators. The logging companies caught on and started using metal detectors to find them. Now they use glass or ceramic spikes.

They also like to raid the local farms. They hit a mink farm about 30 miles from my place last year, turning loose several hunderd of them. Most of them died from exposure or starvation, and were being found for weeks afterwards. The ones that were recaptured killed each other in their cages; mink and other mustalids have very strong family/territorial instincts, and cannot be mixed up in the cages. No way to tell them apart once they are out. In the end, almost every mink died as a direct result of this effort to set them free.

Let's not forget the old standby; bombing university labs. How many millions have been lost to this activity? How much valuable, life saving research has been lost?

The ironic part is, the ones they catch tend to come from well to do backgrounds, with good educations. They have led comfortable, even pampered lives. What drives them to this? Guilt?

Because no liberals own nice homes. Al Gore certainly doesn't.

Oh, don't forget the right wing wackos who want to come into your bedroom, or the war on drugs.


Both ends of the spectrum are wackos. These Earth Lib nuts do more damage to their message than anyone else. Just plain stupid acts of vandalism.

After these liberal idiots are finished, there is no bedroom to come into, its burned to the ground. Judge, jury and arsonist wrapped up in one!

Daddy was always at work and never had time for them, mommy "never understood" them, and being part of a "group" or "cause" like ELF gives them the feeling of belonging that they yearn for.

And they were raised by the babysitter. Yep, fits the mold perfectly!

I must have missed the dumocrats wanting to end the war on drugs. As for wanting to come into the bedroom, those are religious fanatics. For a long time they were democrats, now they claim to be republicans. They are just idiots.

[cairns]

Do you think they'll go down the coast and torch the Striesand residence?

[Mule]

One can only hope.

[RANDY P]

Henceforth, why I hate this damn town called Seattle.

PS- Arson counts as a heinous crime, you can shoot someone in process of burning down a home.

I wouldn't mind that one bit to see that happening in the news.

Like spreading democracy around the world?

[Rick Lee]

Remember the Hummer dealership ELF torched a few years ago? I read that the fumes from those fires were far greater and more toxic than all the emissions those vehicles would have put out in their service lives.

that is right, and if they don't want democracy, we will kill every one of them

You and Steve are consistent, I will give you that.

Or "setting free" the minks at a mink farm that resulted in all the minks dying.
