That was really a stupid stunt.

There's nothing the left does better than reverse tables and paint their opposition with the symbols and imagery used against them.

Now, this idiotic event has invoked the imagery of Nazism, book burnings, and KKK-styled cross burnings all in one fell swoop.

That may have been the intent, but it will backfire.

How?

The environmental movement has become dominated by green fascists. If you understand what fascism truly is, you'll have a tough time disagreeing.

How would you have these people fight back? Writing a letter to the local Montana newspaper?

"That may have been the intent, but it will backfire."

How would you propose to dramatize the problem?

One is entitled to suspect that signing petitions and casting votes for certain politicians may not be enough...

I'm not proposing a "militia solution", mind you. But dramatic action of some sort is required. The Klamath Basin farmers weren't getting anywhere in their case until they forced open the headgates, set up a permanent camp and laid a pipeline...

Hate to say it, but you are probably right. It might be better to attack this from the angle of "how does the enviro stuff affect your job and you family."
