It's been at least two years since I heard this, but according to

ECO-TERRORISTS.

You'd never have known it from reading/watching/listening to

They’ll eventually end up on some advisory panel that Obama will ask Bill Ayers to chair. Of course, their arrest warrants will have disappeared by then. After all they are only doing what Ayers still condones.

The only hope for justice is if some loggers -— way out in the woods -— come upon them.
