Radical environmental group says Auburn, Lincoln attacks a prelude to further sabotage

In a letter received at the Auburn Journal on Tuesday, the Earth Liberation Front claimed responsibility for five firebombs planted in a newly constructed Auburn building last week and a similar bomb planting in Lincoln discovered Dec. 27.

The letter said it was sent to the Journal from the Earth Liberation Front, an eco-terrorist group claiming to be non-violent.

Officials are looking into whether some person or group is targeting new construction because they don't want the natural environment altered by development....

As someone who lives in Placer County, I have seen the rhetoric rising from the left for months now. We are a stones throw from U.C. Davis, otherwise known as "The People's Republic of Davis" and apparently some of those folks have moved to the foothills.

The worst part is how these people do not see the obvious fallacy of their thinking... and are willing to hurt/kill others to achieve their flawed objectives.

I have met people who live on the edge of the American River Canyon, with a magnificent view of the wilderness. They have nice homes built up on the ridge. Then one day, they see a home being built on the ridge across the canyon from them.. altering their pristine view.. and they go to the county planning commission screaming their heads off about destruction of the natural habitat.

It would be funny if it weren't for the danger posed by a human mind gone awry.

They think that developers are the most evil thing in the world because they remove trees to build homes. They were not there when their own home was built... to see how many trees were cut down to make space for it. They are beyond hypocritical, they are dangerous.

Eco-Terror Leader Declares War On America

Craig Rosebraugh, the enigmatic environmental anarchist whose tenure as the public face of the terrorist Earth Liberation Front (ELF) was marked by millions of dollars in violent property destruction, a sizable financial gift from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and a penchant for hiding behind the Fifth Amendment, has declared war on America.

Was reading about when the Germans landed some saboteurs near Montauk LI during WWII. Apparently back then it was OK for civilians to use weapons to fire upon infiltrators. It was understood that the military could not cover every mile of coastline. (LI NY is 100 miles long and probably has close to 500 miles of coastline alone.)
My question is why can't we protect ourselves against organizations that are declaring war on us now?
Yes it is a rhetorical question, but it still needs to be asked.

If you click on the link, I believe the answer comes quite readily. To save you the effort. Auburn, California. About 45mi N.E. of Sacramento, the capital city. About 65mi N.E. of "The People's Republic of Davis". About 100mi N.E. of the San Francisco (Sodom Revised) area.

Well said.

The reason so many wealthy people are Leftists, is because they want to use the connections they've built up with government officials against the peons who dare to think they can compete with them for resources

Yeh. The smell of chipmunks roasting in the fire is so much more natural.

I'd love to be hunting and say, see these ELF idiots in the woods up to no good. Execute a hasty ambush and move on. A little counterguerilla action to drive a spike of fear into their rectums!

The masses need someone to handle the distribution of wealth.

In the old Soviet Union, everybody was equal.

Those who had limosines, dachas along the Caspian, smoked cuban cigars and ate caviar with their champagne were equal to the people standing in line for days to obtain a loaf of bread.

Of course, they were "more equal", but they were equal.

That is the most intelligent statement I have read all day.

Can I please use it for my sig? :D

If this guy was anti-abortion, they would have found somthing to nail him with by now. Looks like they won't act until the pantheist religious nuts start killing people.
