More Ecoterrorist busted ————————————————————————————————————————
Terrorism comes in many forms. It’s unfortunate that we have a home grown form of terrorism that comes out of the environmental movement. Fortunately, swift action on the part of Federal law enforcement authorities in California prevented a serious terrorist act that could not only have destroyed property but could have caused human casualties as well.
On January 13, three individuals were arrested and charged with plotting to bomb the world’s oldest tree-breeding center 40 miles east of Sacramento. Apparently, the suspects were also considering targets such as a dam and fish hatchery along the American River as well as cellular and electricity towers.
While we are relieved that the suspected terrorists were apprehended before they could carry out their plot, we are troubled that some believe that by causing destruction they can advance their political agenda. Also troubling is the fact that many of the established environmental groups are strangely silent about condemning such illegal actions.
We have consistently been critical of those who do not practice responsible recreation on our public lands. We are also going to condemn those who are eco-terrorists. We hope that those organizations who are generally against OHV recreation would at least share our disgust for those who plot to destroy and kill for the sake of environmental beliefs. In a civil society, one would hope that we could debate our differences in terms of policy without resorting to violence.
