Have you heard all of what this group has done? They've threatened to disembowel an employee's 7 year old son, banged pots and pans at all hours of the day and night outside their homes, posted where employees' kids go to school, threatened their insurer's executives, (causing cancellation of all Huntington's policies), followed employees' cars, and made crank phone calls to employees' homes.
The ironic thing is that someone who is allegedly so compassionate about animals can threaten violence against a 7 year old boy. Don't get me wrong. I love animals myself and my two dogs are my heart, as well as my most loyal friends. But this form of extremism and ecoterrorism has nothing to do with love for animals. Its anticapitalism in a different guise. The proper term for them would be Watermelons, green on the ouside and RED on the inside. The fact that former Soviet dictator Mikhail Gorbachev is a staunch environmentalist-nitwit makes that fact quite evident.
For the "demonstrations" alone, they should be charged with disturbing the peace. That "used" to be a crime. In any event, these people are domestic terrorists, along with their allies ALF and ELF, and should be treated as such.
