I dislike [censored] who blow up things, but saying enviros are the "top
domestic terrorism threat" seems insane. What about the right-wing
fundamentalist terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, Eric Rudolph, etc?Of course, Faux News would rather focus on leftist terrorist than right-wing
"Christian" terrorists, so this comes as no surprise.GG

I would not consider Mikey, his views or his methods, as
representative of more than a handful of environmentalists, just as I
do not consider him as representative of hikers (his "hikes" as
mentioned are only on local parks, and his advice on footwear shows
how unfamiliar he is with serious hiking in most of the world).Similarly, I do not consider him representative of PhD's,
psychologists, the Sierra Club, or rational people.He likes to pretend that vast groups of people support him and agree
with him, but none of them actually exist.Also, he never does anything active other than harangue people.
His only function in the world is to amuse others.
Happy trails,

purpose like that.GG

Fair enough, but Mikey does not really care about the environment, so
he does not care about the reputation of environmentalists.Of course, he does not care about his own reputation in the real world
either.Happy trails,

No, I'm implying that when it comes to some left wing (insert person or
group here), you don't want to believe what you're reading, you will
only believe it's true if it pertains to some right wing (insert person
or group here).Quoted message said:

Have you been sharing Rush'es drug stash? I have no idea what you're
talking about.The FBI states the top US domestic terror threat is from enviro and
animal rights groups (left wing groups). You claim that is blown up and
insane. You don't want to believe the left is guilty (I presume because
you lean left in politics) so you spout how the right wing terrorists
are (who BTW have already been removed from the equation). Hence my
comment that you can't have it both ways. BOTH groups are guilty. FTR,
I do not listen to Rush.Quoted message said:

I understand what you are saying, but I am not sure either that we
had a choice, or that it would have mattered. The islamic extremist
seems to ba a rather virulent strain of extremist, the only requirement
for this snake to target a given group seems to be presence. and
remember that it isn't just america that benefits from middle eastern
oil, the world runs on the stuff. -

*should* pursue and prosecute environmental terrorists and vandals.However, comparing environmental terrorists to Christian fundamentalist
terrorists...the "Christians" have a much higher body count, and have
probably done about as much economic damage as well (Oklahoma City, Waco,
Atlanta Olympics, etc.). Thus, my objection to the FBI's labelling of them
as the #1 domestic threat.It smells like politics to me, given the way the Bush administration panders
to the fundies and big business.GG

course, arson is a very serious crime that always carries that possibility
(especially so for fire fighters). They definitely should be investigated
and prosecuted for what are serious crimes.But, the body count still goes to the Christian terrorists...by far.
