The FBI's misplaced priorities ... Support Apolyton

Check this out:

quote:

The ELF is the FBI's No. 1 domestic terrorism priority. The organization has done more than $100 million damage -- but caused no deaths -- since it split off from the radical environmental group Earth First! and surfaced in the United States five years ago.


The ELF is the number one priority for domestic terrorism? They're vandals! How about groups that are planning to kill people instead of firebugs with an SUV fetish?

And they're not even an organized group. Its just random people who trash stuff and then use the ELF for claiming responsibility and PR.

That's what makes them so dangerous. ELF is an idea which requires no type of organisation to function.

I once thought I'd write a novel about this, but I have to write a thesis first.

Does Santa know about this?

I mean..an ELF should have violent tendencies..perhaps something in Santas personel manual would be an appropriate response for disciplinary action?

I mean..this IS NOT what I remember about the North Pole!!

"This year, 2001, we hope to see an escalation in tactics against capitalism and industry," ELF said earlier this month in a communique to Craig Rosebraugh, the Portland, Ore., man who acts as unofficial spokesman for the group. In the statement, ELF also claimed responsibility for a fire at a lumber company office in Glendale, Ore., that did $400,000 worth of damage.

Suffering from ads?

I started a thread about this a month ago. They want to keep man from expanding his domain further into nature and they want an end to enviromentally harmful activities. In other word industry, agriculture, civilization...

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

While I don't think ELF should be the #1 priority, I do think they deserve top 10 status. The property damage doesn't really concern me so much as:

a) How long before they accidentaly kill someone
b) How long before they realize that vandalism isn't going to do it, and intentionally kill someone.

They obviously have the methods and the means to become a very deadly organization. The question, in my view, is how much longer they're self restraint will last.

September 23, 2003 - The Earth Liberation Front Press Office has received a communique from the Earth Liberation Front claiming they left incendiary devices at a pumping station supplying a water bottling plant owned by Nestle Waters North America (formerly known as the Perrier Group of America) in Mecosta County, Michigan. According to news reports, these incendiaries failed to ignite and were removed from the station without incident.


Burn the water bottling plant! Great idea.
