A Hummer dealership has been burned by ecoterrorists. KTLA has a chopper over the scene.
Video shows rows of Hummers vandalized by spray paint with words like "I love pollution" and "polluter".
Yellow hummers were vandalized with black spray paint.
Black hummers were vandalized with white spray paint.
Video shows a large building on the site burning.
Willa Sandmeyer is on the scene and reports that fire authorities are coordinating investigation with FBI.
Fire still burning.
0642 hrs New video just put on TV... fire knocked down... but numerous vehicles vandalized.

I went to the link that NotJustAnotherPrettyFace posted in 144 . It's all right there, from "Setting Fires With Electrical Timers - An Earth Liberation Front Guide," to "If an Agent Knocks Federal Investigators and Your Rights What to do if a federal agent tries to question you, the scoop on agencies that gather political intelligence, how the feds infiltrate political organizations, and much more."
Then if you check a little further you'll find "Prisoners." In that bit of braggadocios BS is this little tidbit of information: "The Earth Liberation Front was established in Britain in 1992 as a break-away movement from Earth First! after EF!UK decided to cease using ecotage as an effective tool in the struggle to defend Mother Earth. In spite of the ELF being an active and effective movement for over ten years, since its formation there have been very few ELF type activists ending up in prison."
It goes on to point out that a total of five, five of these idiots have been imprisoned -- and two of them were "turncoats!"
They also brag on the first page, of vandalism they have caused -- to the tune of over $100,000,000.00!!
So my anger is not at you, but the do-nothing government agency!
So who goes after them? BATF is useless -- they only go after set-up individuals or helpless men, women and children in a "religious cult" where they can destroy all evidence of their wrong-doings.
Does anyone know if there has ever been a direct connection found between the Sierra Club and ELF? (I need a good argument to get my mother-in-law to stop supporting the damn Sierra Club!)
LOL!
I just realized....
my previous post needed some clarification!

I disagree.
Spray painting & arson are crimes which do not demand a great deal of intestinal fortitude. Their actions are staged for the media as much as they're for destructive purposes.
Back when I was in college, earthfirst! (a forerunner of ALF / ELF) was allowed to sell their "monkey wrenching manual" in the student union. The type of people normally grouped around the table were the typical pansy leftists.
I don't think much has changed.
I have no doubt that there are some hardcore types at the nucleus, but most of the followers are involved for lesser reasons.
Start taking the fun out of it and those on the periphery will realize the error of their ways or just drift away.
It is not right to slam someone that cannot defend themselves.
Sungirl is not an ELF or PETA terrorist.
The way to a Man's Heart: Keep quiet
There are a few of hers that got pulled there, I saved them for posterity in my freepmail, where she attacked me and made fun of me for a medical problem I mentioned on the thread.
I also have one that was pulled saved on my HD where she picked on me for it a second time.
Interesting young lady.
She wasn't THAT bad... and since she isn't here as far as we know...we should probably just let her memory rest in peace...
