Green Extremist Suggests Death Threats For Drillers; Colorado Paper Carries His Water
Insurgent Tribe ^ | 4/23/17 | Shawn Mitchell

Posted on 04/24/2017 7:42:55 AM PDT by smashtheleft

The East and West Coasts can’t hog all the excitement. While militant Antifa types attack Trump supporters in Berkeley, rowdy snowflakes hustle conservative speakers off campus, and masked hooligans occupy streets in New York, Colorado could be cultivating some Leftist violence of its own…in the cause of making energy less plentiful and more expensive.

Last week, the Boulder Daily Camera published a letter asking, whether, if oil and gas companies drill too close to homes, thus “threatening our lives and our children’s lives, then don’t we have a moral responsibility to blow up wells and eliminate fracking and workers?” The next day, without apology or retraction, editors walked back the incitement to a blander formulation: “[D]on’t we have a moral responsibility to take action to dissuade frackers from operating here?” Editors intoned they “do not condone violence or property destruction of any kind” but they stand by the letter because it “presents a philosophical question the Camera believes is worthy of community conversation in the context of the ongoing discussion over fracking.”

These mental midgets really think blowing up an oil or gas well in the vicinity of their homes is a good idea ? Well go for it greenies, there will definitely be less of you when you’re done.

The only way to address Evil is to cut its Evil head off at the neck. Single them out and confront it.

Public humiliation for excessive environmentalism! Stocks and pillory.

Thos may require some soul searching on the part of the facist snowflakes. Colorado is not one of those states where people have been forced by government to defend themselves only with rocks and sticks. Need to order more popcorn.

The Boulder Daily Camera should be identified as supporting domestic terrorism and added to the watch list of domestic terrorists.

Boulder pussies against a drilling crew. Yeah, I’d definitely buy that on pay per view.

And in the part of Texas I came from, if you walk around talking about blowing out someone’s lamp, they just might get the same idea about you.

Of course not you idiot! That is what they courts and the law is for.

The gas and petroleum being released from the “tight” formations beneath their homes, may be extracted through a wellhead that is perhaps MILES from their residences and communities. The drills do not go straight down, they are often directed sideways for thousands of feet to the known reservoir. And since the formations are also thousands of feed BELOW these residences and communities, the likelihood of well water contamination and/or seepage to the surface are also extremely low.

But logic and reason and “acceptable risk” are simply not in the lexicon of these fierce little snowflake warriors.

I don’t condone violence either but I support vandals and looters being shot on sight.

The same people who used to kill loggers by spiking trees back in the day.

That’s right.

They are like the pathetic Snowflakes and Crybullies. They are being led by the nose and manipulated and used by nasty America Haters with a terrible agenda. They are true Useful Idiots.

then don’t we have a moral responsibility to blow up wells


obviously you cannot blow up the drilled ‘well’, but you can damage the wellhead (my home is 500 feet from one). So to state they want to blow up wells to save the homes and the chillrens is laughable. In the oil/gas fields here in the four corners you will find wells (wellhead) very commonly in close proximity to homes and ranches and even in residential areas. I doubt any greenie coming to the area to light up a well would be received with open arms.

Let’s cut the crap. Like Kurt Schlichter said, these people want to kill us. These “Antifa” attacks so far have been with bear spray and bike locks. They will escalate. No one in authority has shown any inclination to stop them

Prepare to respond accordingly. They won’t like the results when finally they have provoked the people with the guns and training and actual combat experience.

I blame the government, at all levels. When police under these leftist mayors sit back while leftist mobs run amok, they choose sides. It’s like some idiot has wired the safety valve shut. This will end... loudly.

And from the looks of this post, not too many people are aware. You keep hearing many people saying ‘liberals, liberals...’ If you look up liberal, you’ll see, they are not liberals.
