This is certainly the work of the right-wing militia.

Allied with 'anti-abortion zealots'. No doubt.

...eco-terrorists...

Is that the same as a left-wing extremist milita group?

How I wish I could feel assured that those responsible, if apprehended, would pay the price cowardly lawbreakers should pay for such crimes.

Don't they have security cameras in these areas so they can catch these morons?

It is just a shakedown. Contribute to the local eco terrorist group or face vandalism. We should open up a national hunting season and issue permits for these varmint. We could probably pay off a good chunk of the debt with the license fees.

We have an office in that same business park. Don't remember seeing cameras, but who knows.

said they weren't ruling out the possibility that the it was the work of eco-terrorists

If I had to make an educated guess, that would be it.

Yes. Marxists infilitrate ALL radical groups, be they feminist, racialist, or eco-nuttist. Thus the term watermelon.

Shaklee still uses animals for experimentation? Shame on them.

Amway stopped this practice years ago.

They moved on level down on the evolutionary chain and started testing their products on college students. [lol...a true story]

"It's like working in a war zone. It's not right."

Being old enough to remember the wild 1970's when radicals started this left-winged anti-establishment terrorism I can tell you that when they catch these guys the lefties fight each other to be their lawyers and the judges are soooo sooo, understanding, and well you know the press just doesn't want to cover it.

That this is happening now in my own town infuriates me!
