The philosophy described here is scary to say the least. The tree huggers have the ear of the lawmakers and we are seen as prediators and destroyers of all things on earth.
There's the problem. If you are a hunter, and you divide us, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
These people are insane yet they are treated with respect AND KID GLOVES BY THE FEDS WHO WOULD just as soon blast away at hardworking, law abiding, peaceful, Americans who happen to own guns for self defense, hunting, or hobbies.
FIVE DAYS in a luxury hotel? Now just WHO was footing THAT bill? My guess is if you looked hard enough - you would find the bill paid by the Rats whom these radicals control. Why? Because they are ALL MARXISTS which means they ALL operate by THUG BRUTE FORCE.
I think the Anti-terrorism task force missed an opportunity to infiltrate an American terrorist organization. Too bad. Maybe they will read about it here.
"YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE" will look badly on our grave stones unless we fight this crap.
WHERE DO THEY GET THEIR MONEY??
Those college kids are not able to pay for 5 days in a Hilton. I see also that people are being recruited.
This is very dangerous, and we need to be paying attention. I hope the FBI is tracing their money.
TERRORIST
This is the word we need to start repeating over and over when we talk about these people. That one word can negate all their efforts described in the above article.
The fact that these supposedly 'grass roots' activists are being funded and put up in a nice hotel when the average Joe couldn't afford it is evidence of the old communist 'pinchers' strategy - the whole movement is being funded by some type of leftist foundation, but the illusion is that the activism is coming from common citizens. Pressure from above, pressure from below. Guess who gets 'squeezed' in the middle?
BTW - ya gonna make it to Knob Creek?
Frightening is right. What an awful experience.
Thanks for posting this article, SLB.
To: The Internal Revenue Service of the United States.Peta has been making over 10 million dollars per year in donations over the last 5 years. On their website, it is shown that your donation will go to help the animals, but it has been discovered otherwise.
Peta has a tax-exempt status on all donations they recieve.
To be eligible for 501(c)(3) tax exemption, a group must be organized and operate exclusively for charitable purposes. Its activities cannot be illegal, or "in conflict with express statutory restrictions." And its activities must promote its main purpose.
it was recently discovered that Peta donated $1,500 to the "earth liberation front" to "support their program activities" back in the year 2000.
ELF is considered a terrorist organization by the FBI, and for a reason.
their "program activities" include the arson of a $12 million mountaintop lodge at Vail, spiking trees in Idaho's Nez Perce National, burning down a barn and cutting fences at a wild horse facility run by the Bureau of Land Management, setting fire to a biotechnology research facility at the University of Minnesota, and numerous other destructive acts. According to the FBI's counterterrorism division, ELF has caused $43 million in damage in the past six years.
The Center for Consumer Freedom has recently discovered that Peta donated $45,000 to the "support committee" for Rodney Coronado, who was convicted of setting fire to a research facility at Michigan State University.
They have also discovered that Peta donated $5,000 dollars to the comitee for josh harper, an associate with ELF's sister organization, the Animal Liberation Front, (ALF) who also commit to violent acts.
I view these as acts of terrorism, extortion, and intimidation, and certainly do not consider them applicatory to the definition of elegibility for tax-exempt status.
The IRS has been refractory to any pressure from celebrity or high-level figures, and we do not ask for any more than this.
We would like the IRS to please launch a review of Peta's tax exempt status, and become familiarized with the organization. They may find that Peta, as an organization, does not deserve the tax exemption they recieve.
Here, again, is the definition.
To be eligible for 501(c)(3) tax exemption, a group must be organized and operate exclusively for charitable purposes. Its activities cannot be illegal, or "in conflict with express statutory restrictions." And its activities must promote its main purpose.
do they fit?
Petition for the review by the IRS for tax-exempt donations to Peta.
Thanks for the consideration

Judging from the way our county and state government operates, the apes have taken over Kentucky. :-)
