Early in the morning of April 20th we poured concrete on the train tracks that lead out of the Port of Olympia to block any trains from using the tracks. We took precautions to notify BNSF (the train company) we called them and we used wires to send a signal that the tracks were blocked. We did this not to avoid damaging a train, nothing would bring bigger grins to our faces, but to avoid the risk of injuring railway workers.
This action was done to disrupt the movement of trains carrying proppants used in natural gas fracturing. These train tracks are part of a system of pipelines, fracking wells, mines, clearcuts, control centers, fiberoptics, dams, highways and factories that cover the planet and are physical manifestations of a process that is destroying the ecosystems, cultures, and inhabitants everywhere. Behind this network of infrastructure there are politicians, CEOs and bureaucrats who have private security, cops, prison guards, non-profit directors, PR consultants and the legacy of 500 years of colonization to back them up. We oppose all of these manifestations, infrastructural, personal and ideological. We blocked the train tracks because we want to blockade the entire web of domination that is slowly killing us.
We were inspired to take this action by acts of resistance taking place across turtle island and the world, particularly the fierce indigenous resistance of water protectors against the Dakota Access Pipe Line, the encampment blocking a train full of fracking material on these same tracks in Olympia this past November, and the clandestine attacks against pipelines in Florida, South Dakota and Iowa.
We also were emboldened by the spirit of all those who have risen against the white supremacist police in Furguson, Baltimore, Oakland and elsewhere, as well as by the

Working now. Was probably just being overwhelmed when I tried earlier...
I would like to know who is SCRUBBING the evidence of this story, too.
If this is in fact the case these dogs need to be put on leashes and chained to the trains.
The article states that they will keep doing it, how easy it is to do, IN THAT EXACT AREA, is the point. The fact that it is from April doesnt matter. It shows the exact area they urged people to sabotage.
No names released yet, but at least 6 dead.

I dont think there is any proof that we know of, but it definitely shows a potential motivation if not a suspect.
If you save in Archive.is, it saves it online and also shows if the media outlet changed it. That came in handy when Trump claimed he was wiretapped and Obama denied it. We were able to pull it up via a NYT front page story that they later edited to try and hid, thanks to archive.is.
It also saved the complete webpage, not just the HTML. And if offers the option of a screenprint as well, which you can download.
Why did you leave the Date Published field blank?
You've posted 4 other articles today in which you CORRECLTY posted a "Published Date"
But you left it off of this one.
In post number #1 I mentioned it was from last April.
If ANTIFA was talking about it this past April and bragging about it, then how can you think they are not suspects?
You know how to post an article. You've done at least 4 others today.
You got the reacetion you wanted on this one by leaving the date off.
I doubt the railroad would authorize an engineer to just drive over the obstruction to clear it. It’s just too risky.
But busting up uncured cement wouldn’t take long for a couple of jack jockeys.
And I’d keep track of every cent it cost to clear the track so that when these pussies are caught, they can get the bill. Maybe put them to work chopping weeds from the right-of-way to work off their debt.
“Either concrete on the tracks or not. Any evidence?’ Nothing solid at this time
I think there’s a marked difference between being “murdered” and being on a train involved in an accident.
When one takes steps to intentionally derail a train which can be expected to be occupied, a reasonable person would expect there to be severe injuries and even fatalities.
These people were murdered.
Think I can wait 24 hours before calling for a hanging. I would sorta like to lnow what happened first.
Except, and this might be a tiny detail, they haven’t determined that the train was intentionally derailed.
Kill joy. Lol.
Right?? I guess I’m missing the nexus here of an article that talks about pouring concrete on some tracks somewhere else, 8 months ago, having anything to do with today’s event. Am I to believe, as some here apparently do, that said concrete was not removed and the tracks cleared 8 months ago???
Without a minimum of 30 days to cure wouldn’t a train simply crumble the concrete like a hammer on freshly set plaster of paris?
