Grand jury snags a couple of more eco-terrorists. From the posting on some of the whacko sites it appears that the eco-terrorist movement is being compromised by its own members(Snitches coming out of the woodwork). The little darlings are scared spittless about the prospect of hard time and the reality of "Bubba" as your sweetie.

wild horse and burro facilities in California

For a minute, I thought it said "wild horse burrito facilities".

Careful there---the BLM tries to match adoptions with responsible people. You have to have a pretty strong corral system to hold these wild horses who are adopted. Sometimes you can get one at an auction where talented prisoners break them for use.

More Good News.

" a couple of eco-terrorists...

arrested Thursday in Olympia, Wash., after the 14-count indictments were handed up..."

[stop_fascism]

As far as I'm concerned we should treat them just like islamofascist terrorists.

BTW - What do they have against tree farms?

[kimosabe31]

That's probably what they are.

[george76]

They will burn anything.

"Superior Lumber Co. in Glendale, a plant inspection service facility in Olympia, a fire at U.S. Forest Industries in Medford, energy transmission towers in Eastern Oregon, a meatpacking company in Eugene..."

---

My understanding is that there are evil tree farms that use a genetically modified stock from which the trees are propagated. They aren't raising real trees, but, a frankensteinian mix of genes that threaten life as we know it. Cottonwood trees have become very popular on tree farms around here due to their rapid growth. The tree farm that was attacked claimed they used approved practices and don't use the evil stuff.

Sounds good to me. With some salsa, avocado and a good beer, not bad. Maybe some cabrito and machaca too.

It's one thing to burn down science centers at colleges, but burning down Christmas trees?
Now they've gone too far I tell ya!

Yes, I thought these kooks hugged trees; now they are attacking trees?

Maybe they were bitten by a rabid squirrel and are starting the foaming at the mouth stage of rabies.

In all 14 people are charged in what government prosecutors describe as an arson conspiracy across several Western states over five years

The government alleges the arson at the tree farm was part of a broad conspiracy from 1996 through 2001 in Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, Colorado and California, in which elements of the radical groups the Earth Liberation Front and the Animal Liberation Front allegedly took part.

Other targets listed in the alleged conspiracy include the Superior Lumber Co. in Glendale, a plant inspection service facility in Olympia, a fire at U.S. Forest Industries in Medford, energy transmission towers in Eastern Oregon, a meatpacking company in Eugene, wild horse and burro facilities in California, a Colorado ski resort and an SUV dealership in Eugene.

Looks like they finally got a line on the arsonists. As I posted previously, these bastards burned down my employers office on christmas eve eight years ago. Hope they are convicted and sentenced to hard time.
