I wish the gooberment would open an eco-terrorist season.
I promise one and all that I'd be glad to "bag the limit".
Every time animal rights terrorists come to mind, I envision a bunch of skinny punks looking for any cause to take up arms in, who like the idea of being a fighter but would never in their lives join the military. And they'd back down from a fight by themselves, but as a group they'd muster the courage to terrorize women, children, and old men.
Having just finished a dinner of moose steak and bear meat (prepared as spcy meatballs!), let's move beyond the obvious leftist terror aspects of the animal activists. They're also completely out of touch with the real world where animals live. In the real world of eastern North America, white-tailed deer are literally browsing the forests into places devoid of underbrush and saplings, since there are no predators and no human hunting. In essence, the animal rights people are willing to sacrifice the environment for political purposes. As far as bears are concerned, no doubt those animals are attracted by the venison feast - and they'll just as easily forage in garbage cans, eat dogs and cats, and maul the nearest kid. We live with bears; they're not cuddly and cute; they can hurt and kill people, and do so, especially in places without hunting where they've lost their fear of humans. What makes sense is seeing all those deer and bear - and I'd throw in all those Canada geese and turkeys, too - as God's supermarket and, with intelligent supervision, it would be a sustainable food resource. Of course, that makes sense, and I don't terrorize my neighbors with my political viewpoint.
Unf---ing believable. And this jackass has a license to practice medicine? People can't cave in to these spineless thugs. Maybe they need a dose of their own medicine.
"And if they won't stop when you ask them nicely, they won't stop when you demonstrate to them what they're doing is wrong, then they should be stopped using whatever means necessary."
So it's not OK to harm animals but it's OK to harm people? What am I missing here? Brain damage? Insanity? Too much LSD?
I have to disagee about safety being a state of mind. From what I read in the article, they ARE a threat to our safety; especially when they make comments about doing what is necessary to make their point. If they don't have any qualms about breaking the law and vandalizing someone's property just because they disagree with him, they're not going to stop at bodily harm. Yes, they are a threat to our freedom but they are also a threat to us physically.
Disagree. It's only a matter of time before ELF or ALF kills someone. It probably won't be intentional, but someone will die as a result of their actions. Mark my words.
Actually, Mohammed Atta and Johnny Taliban were "skinny punks" and both had terrorist training in Afghanistan (which is very similar to many special forces training schools).
This isn't anything. The animal activists in britain went so far as to dig up the bones of the mother of a man who raised guinea pigs for medical research.
They held the bones for ransom.
The area is on a sort of peninsula that juts out into Long Island Sound.
There would be limited space for deer to move about and I can believe that they are making a pretty big mess there due to overpopulation.
The eco-freaks have no idea what they are doing other than raising hell in a densely populated suburban area.
Will hunters be followed after the hunt is over?
Will the hunters be followed during the hunt? That would be fun!
When you read a statement like this you know the speaker knows right from wrong and is acknowledging being in the wrong.
"It's only a matter of time before ELF or ALF kills someone. It probably won't be intentional, but someone will die as a result of their actions."
100% correct!
These people have gotten the fluff treatment from the MSM for far too long. They should be apprehended, tried, and imprisioned under any applicable anti-terrorism statutes. The MSM acts like they are just cute little animal loving ragamuffins, but what they are are commie terrorists.
"What did Leland Hairr do to deserve this? He asked for, and received permission from the state of New York, to hold a deer cull in his village."
Well, here's the problem. The village has to ask the State of New York. You see the problem here don't you? Our freedoms have been so eroded by the left, that now permission is required to kill deer? It's a sad commentary.

>>>Groups like WAR and ALF are allowed to operate without widespread condemnation. At the time of this writing, I have been unable to find any statement from the New York Parks Department, the Diocese of Rockville Centre, or the town of Lloyds Harbor expressing any sort of outrage for the attack on the towns mayor.
I thought ALF was labeled a Domestic Terrorist group?
Domestic Terrorist Groups:
Animal Liberation Front (ALF)--Animal Rights group.
Armed Revolutionary Independence Movement (MIRA)--Puerto Rican terrorist group which sought independence from the U.S. Broken up by the police in the 1960s.
Boricua Popular Army (AKA Ejército Popular Boricua & Los Macheteros)--Puerto Rican terrorist group seeking Puerto Rican independence from the United States. First known as the Armed Forces of National Liberation (FALN)
Earth Liberation Front (ELF)--Environmentalist group held responsible for acts of eco-terrorism throughout the United States.
Minutemen --Right-wing terrorist group in the 1960s. (NOTE: not to be confused with the Minutemen volunteer border patrol begun in 2005.)
Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA)- Left-wing group best known for kidnapping newspaper heiress Patricia Hearst.
Weather Underground--Left-wing group active in the 1960s.
