Earth Liberation Front Thugs
Today in Seattle, Washington a so-called environmental group (more mental than anything else) blew up homes to try and further some sort of an agenda, religion or belief they hold dear. This seemed kinda similar to an abortion clinic bombing. Okay, this is why I could make a horrible journalist.
Let me try to just give the facts as I should.
Apparently no one was killed.
“Incendiary devices were found inside the homes, fire officials said, and the blazes will be investigated as acts of domestic terrorism. ”
“Last summer in Eugene, Ore., 11 Earth Liberation Front members were sentenced for a number of attacks, including a bombing at a car dealership.”
We’re not sure what drives this sort of thing but it must be some sort of a religion?
One way to fight this sort of ignorance is with knowledge so here’s what we know:
- Read this First! – Entry for the Earth Liberation Front at Wikipedia
- from Wikipedia – The ELF was founded in the United Kingdom in 1992 and spread to Europe by 1994. It is now an international movement with actions reported in over a dozen countries and is widely regarded as the Animal Liberation Front‘s younger sister, because of the relationship and cooperation between the two movements.
- The self-proclaimed original founder of ELF (John Hanna) was first inspired “24 years ago” by “Rachel Carson and her book Silent Spring. The other was Robert Van Den Bosch, professor of entomology at U.C. Berkeley“
