ESTACADA, Ore. (AP) -- Activists with the Cascadia Forest Alliance on Friday set up blockades on roads that lead to a 60-acre timber sale on the Mount Hood National Forest, a group spokeswoman said.
The group is trying to block the Borg timber sale in the Oak Grove watershed by conducting tree-sits, in which protesters live on platforms suspended 100 feet above ground, said Carrie Taylor, alliance spokeswoman.
Alliance members have held a tree-sit in the nearby Solo sale, also in the Oak Grove watershed, since July 4.
How many of these watermelons are on welfare in Oregon.
Oregon thanks to these watermelons and others has the highest unemployment rate in the country!
More people go hungry in Oregon every day as a percent of the total population than any other state.
Their motto ought to be "Love a tree and starve the children!"
