Greenenthugen Rioten In Der Streeten Copenhagen: Pretty Dambääden.

[The Hairy Beast]

Isn't it odd that whenever you get a bunch of Greenpeace types together in a group, violence ensues? But nobody ever makes the connection. If violence on this scale had occurred at a Conservative rally, don't you think the left would be making political hay out of it?

"Now we see the violence inherent in the movement! Census Takers will dangle from every tree! Rush will be proclaimed Chancellor of the Republic and Glen Beck will roam the streets with his mob bashing in the windows at every Health Food store."

But when the streets swarm green and the gutters run red it doesn't reflect badly on the movement at all.

Strange how that works...

These Ain't Your Father's Hippies.

In case you're still wondering what Green Fascism might look like, watch this video released by Greenpeace a few years ago. What amazes me is that they actually thought it wasn't creepy and horrid. Think about it...

Some interesting stuff.
Gee, whats the common denominator to all this violence?

Lots of info:

The Earth Liberation Front (ELF), also known as "Elves" or "The Elves",
's the collective name for anonymous and individuals or covert cells who,
according to the ELF Press Office, use "economic sabotage and guerrilla
warfare to stop the exploitation and destruction of the environment".

The ELF was founded in Brighton in the United Kingdom in 1992
The ELF was classified as the top domestic terror threat in the United
States by the FBI in March 2001, and are categorised as "eco-terrorists".
On the lack of deaths from ELF attacks, the FBI's deputy assistant director
for counterterrorism has said, "I think we're lucky. Once you set one of
these fires they can go way out of control." The name came to public
prominence when they were featured on the television show 60 Minutes in
2005.

A small list of hits:

Notable attacks: 1998-2008

1998/1999 The ELF gained national attention for a series of actions which
earned them the label of eco-terrorists, This came after the burning of a ski
resort in Vail, Colorado, on October 19, costing $12 million. In a communique
to the press, the ELF said:
of roads and of clearcuts will ruin the last, best lynx habitat in the state.
Putting profits ahead of Colorado's wildlife won't be tolerated.}}

Actions also included sabotaging power lines, the burning of an SUV
dealership and the burning down of a logging headquarters causing $1
million in damages. The Elves wrote to the local paper "Let this be a lesson
to all greedy multinational corporations who don't respect their
ecosystems,"

The ELF then set fire to the Michigan State University on New Years Eve,
using a gasoline bomb to cause $1.1 million in damages, because of their
GMO-engineering. The next day, commercial logging equipment was set on
fire, with "ELF" and "Go Log in Hell" spraypainted on a truck. In March 2008,
four activists were charged for both the arsons. On November 27, in
Oregon, the ELF burned the Legend Ridge mansion and sent a message to
the Boulder Weekly saying "Viva la revolution!" Damages were estimated at
$2.5 million.

2000 In March, a total of thirty SUVs were torched, belonging to Joe
Romania's dealership, in Oregon, with damages estimated at $1 million. The
action was claimed in support of Jeff "Free" Luers, who targeted the very
same dealership and was in court for the charges at the time. After the ELF
claimed responsibility for the arson, because they believed the University
was involved in genetic engineering of poplar trees, an FBI spokeswoman in
Portland, Oregon said "I don't think there's any doubt the ELF's ".

On November 21, ELF member Ian Wallace planted incendiary devices
outside of two buildings on the campus of Michigan Technological University
in Houghton, Michigan during the early morning hours. The devices failed,
and on March 21, 2009, Wallace was sentenced to three years in prison for
the incident by Judge Robert Holmes Bell, who said Wallace "didn't intend to
hurt anybody, (but) this's a serious offense."

2003 On August 1, a 206-unit condominium in San Diego was destroyed,
with a banner left at the scene saying "If you build it, we'll burn it", signed
"The E.L.F.s are mad". after flames reached an estimated in the air, as
over a hundred fire fighters attempted to put out the fire. The destruction
was the movements most financially damaging action against a target, with
a local preservation group calling the action pointless, noting that "You can
go and burn something down, but it's just going to get built again." Exactly
three weeks later, 125 SUVs and hummers were torched, costing a total of
$3.5 million, with "I love pollution" spray-painted at the scene, and a month
later homes being built in San Diego were targeted again, this time costing
an estimated $450,000 in damages.

2005 The FBI's most recent report stated that there'd been over 1,200
"criminal incidents",

2008 One of the latest ELF arsons was reported on the morning of March 3,
when explosive devices set fire to four multi-million dollar homes from the
2007 Seattle Street of Dreams in Echo Lake, Washington, costing $7 million
in damage. Authorities described the act as "domestic terrorism" after
finding "ELF" spray-painted in red letters, mocking claims that the homes
were environmentally friendly: "Built Green? Nope black! McMansions in
RCDs r not green. ELF." A criminology professor replied saying: "The real
unfortunate thing's many citizens will empathize with ELF because their
goal's the environment."

That Green'peace' video is quite telling; and more than a little chilling. I've scrapped crap off my shoe that was more intelligent than that dumb eco-terrorist *itch! I think her 'lack' of a future has a lot more to do with her gloomy, ****ty attitude, than it does my SUV!

Bring it on, *itch! It won't be much of a fight, but I can always use the amusement.

AB, the kid at the bottom of the post is the kid at the top, now. With that kind of venom coursing through the system of a semi-mainstream movement like Greenpeace, what might be bubbling within the more radical sects?

And why is it only the Beast asking that question?

Last I saw that kind of hate was with the Dem run KKK in the old days!

Actually, its scary that now, not only are they given a pass, they are talked about glowingly by the media, embraced by the left.

The Beast is asking because he is looking in the right places and keeping his head out of the sand

Greenpeace shouldn’t be treated as semi-mainstream. Copenhagen violence proves it. But they’ll get a pass, they always do. Some on this forum (and in society at large) see militia fascists under every rock and bush; Glen Beck burps on the radio and it’s a secret call to arms. But twelve hundred get arrested for rioting at the Copenhagen Climate talks and it’s no big deal.

Or the fear that ran through liberals bodies as elderly working and retired citizens peacefull gathered to condemn government spending at the Tea Partys.
Those were organized violent mobs

These guys ...meh.

Need to keep these posts and vids for the next round of libs shouting "*********s! Swastikas!"

Any time there's a high profile international government meeting, the same idiots seem to show up and throw rocks at the police. Nothing new here. Pinning it to "liberals" is a bit disingenuous to me because you're looking at anarchists and nutjobs from the fringe. These people are nothing more than political noise.

What about the greenpeace video? Where would you place them on the scale from Soup to nuts, Dude?

Fringe loonies not much unlike PETA.

I don't think we disagree, except the Libs feel much less restraint when they use events (like the dead Census Dude) to augur right wing fascism in the offing. Can you imagine the uproar if the same happened at a Tea Party rally?

Really, how fringe is Greenpeace? They were deeply involved with the East Anglia CRU of leaked memo fame.

They are fringe and I am not concerned about being bricked or bombed by them because I fish or drive an old car that uses gas, nor am I concerned about them affecting policy decisions.

They are in short a side show.

Just a thought.
Does anyone think there were Conservatives or Libertarians in that crowd?
Any far right fringe?

People who's lives are ruled by their emotions rather than by rational thinking are prone to this sort of thing. Liberalism is an "I feel" existence. They're the political EMO's. And so they act out. It's their nature.

You're a liberal?
