Eco-Activists Taking on Company Workers
At 3 a.m. one recent morning, animal rights activists enraged by a company that tests products on animals gathered outside the home of an executive.They bellowed through bullhorns, made sirens pierce through the night and papered the Los Angeles neighborhood in leaflets denouncing Huntingdon Life Sciences officials as, among other things, "puppy killers."
"We'll be back," the group, Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty, later warned the executive on its Web site. "We know where you live, we know where you work, and we'll make your life hell until you pull out of HLS."
What made the noisy protest unusual was that its target wasn't an executive with Huntingdon Life Sciences: It was a manager of a Los Angeles company that just sells software to Huntingdon.
The radical environmental group Earth Liberation Front is claiming responsibility for fires that destroyed two houses near Ann Arbor in March.The slogan "ELF, no sprawl" was spray painted on the garage door of a house next to one of those burned March 21 in the Mystic Forest subdivision. On its Web site, the group claims responsibility for the fires, which it says caused $400,000 in damage.
The group also takes responsibility for burning luxury homes being built near Philadelphia late last year. A picture of a burning home is featured on the Web site, along with instructions on how to start fires.
The group says no one has claimed responsibility for last summer's fires that destroyed two luxury homes under construction, but police said they suspect the ELF.
The FBI has said it considers the Earth Liberation Front one of the nation's most prolific domestic terrorist organizations. The group has claimed responsibility for a series of antigrowth attacks in the past six years.
Maybe capitalists should use some of this cool "direct action" stuff to promote OUR views!

But that's all on the front page of their site. More appropriately given the first story, why not just target XS4ALL, their domain host? How much abuse can their admins take late at night at their homes? Perhaps more locally, why not stop by SHAC's American site and find some connected companies? Unfortunately, there is no personal contact info (afraid of something?), though we do know who provides their hosting service: TUCOWS' OpenSRS. We can all pile in and drive to Canada and bug them! How about that!
As for the Earth Liberation Front...I wonder if Darren Thurston

and his family and friends would enjoy some good 'ole capitalist chanting in front of their homes? We can recite Rand and turn Mises into song! We can bring recordings praising the sheer gosh-darn usefullness of turning Nature into cheap commodities for everyone to enjoy.
And once we're done...we'll burn his FUCKING house down.
I'm sure that'll convince him to stop either his heinous activities, his promotion of them (destruction profiteer!!!), or his friends who do both.
End sarcasm.
UPDATE(8/7/2003 7:15am)
The bastards are getting ambitious.
Investigators said Tuesday that arsonists from an environmental terrorist group were to blame for a fire at an apartment complex under construction that caused $50 million in damage.The Earth Liberation Front, linked to arson incidents across the West, claimed responsibility for setting fire to the five-story apartment complex Friday in San Diego.
A 12-foot banner found at the scene read: "If you build it, we will burn it," along with the initials ELF. The group, which only communicates with the news media by e-mail, issued a brief statement saying the banner "is a legitimate claim of responsibility by the Earth Liberation Front."
"The intent was to burn the structure to the ground," said San Diego Fire Capt. Jeffrey A. Carle, an arson investigator who called the fire one of the costliest in city history. He declined to say what was used to start the three-alarm blaze. There were no injuries.

Do not sink to the terroristic methods of the foolish ELF and ALF and PETA and certain factions of the WWF. They are self serviing self righteous misguided fools. As with all politically funded organizations there are extremeist who make the true goal moot by their terrorist acts. I cannot speak personally for ELF AND ALF but I was with the TRUE PETA in the 70's before the radical terrorists came in and took the limelight. I was WWF when it was about honesty and honor and respect and not preforming terrorist acts against random fronts, GreenPeace wasnt always a bad thing to support.
Radical ecoterrorists are simply TERRORISTS!!!! and they ruin the trust messege.
Arson for arson is no answer. Intellegence wins out over radical left wing ecoterrorism needs be address and prosecuted with intellegence and fairness for their constitutional right in spite of their violent misguided attacks.
They are simply manipulative monsters who prey on the minds of the weak. Much like Charles manson in his simplistic method of brainwashing others to kil for him while remaining pristine for so long.
Publicly revealing these ecoterrorists for what they are with evidence and showing the world who they truely are and the tactics they use is what is catamount for stopping their misguided terrorism not in the name of nature and the earth but in the name of themselves.
Cut them off at the knees with proof and political evidence as to who in Hollywood and Washingtin DC are donating to them and profiting from them.
This ist a partisan issue, it is a human issue. Find the politicos and big bucks celebrities who are funding these acts and hit them in the political and financial pocketbooks. Thats the most effective thing to these radicals.
Peace and global harmony is worth the effort.
Ecoterrorism is an atrocity where everyone suffers, most of all the innocent helpless creatures they claim to work for.
