What do you expect? They're white, and amerikan. It's okay to commit hate crimes in this country, so long as your white. Remember, Saddam is the threat here, not our own kind. Funny how an ELF dude can go to prison basically FOREVER for burning an SUV, but groups like the KKK can bomb shit and kill people and get almost nothing for it sometimes. I guess a human life isn't worth nearly as much as a gas guzzling hunk of non-living metal. BTW, I don't have a real player so I can't exactly comment on the link you have posted, but since it mentioned William Krar and hate crimes, I could pretty much guess what it was about. Here's another lovely little article. http://www.world-crisis.com/more/309_0_1_0_M/ “Americans should question whether the Justice Department is making America’s far-right fanatics a serious priority.”
oh my god people, you should at least visit that link I posted to read the comments left by readers!! Even if you don't read the article! "What nerve! You dare to refer to white terror, while roving bands of savage negro beasts wreak havoc on whites every day." Holy Shit! Roving bands of savage negro beasts? Man, some people are fucking WHACK.
I have been saying all along that our government needs to include domestic terrorists on their "war on terrorism". Why? because I'm more concerned about the Tim Mcveighs of this country then I am about Saddam Hussein or that Al-zawquari(however it's spelled) not to mention,more people in this country are killed a day by gang members(of all races) then by imported terrorism. sure, gangs of LA havent killed 3000 in a span of 2 hours but how many have they killed this year? the past 10 years? and they target innocent people. It is more likely, that a white american male will bomb a US building or rain gun fire in a public place then an islamic man...and they do it...we have clinic bombings,university bombings,..ect.. one poster mentioned the KKK...while they aren't the numbers they used to be, they are still a violent movement that should be handled with the same zealousness as imported terrorists. we have these ELF people that havent learned that blowing up some cars is only gonna make you look stupid rather then like a threat.However, their lack of moral conscience is incredible when you consider their platform. yeah..they blew up some cars...but if anybody had been standing around they exploded..they could have been seriously injured or even dead. and the ELF never claims responsibility for actions that result in injury. they wait for the press release, when it's clear, they speak up. this is how they can claim that none of their actions ever resulted in death or injury.Unfortunately for them though, the general populace is not that stupid. I find it repugnant that we excuse the terrorism committed on our soil by our own kind simply because of race or religion...heck nationality.. A black gangbanger shoots up a resturant because some rivals are in there...it's gang warfare(meaning;simply local criminal act)....a Moroccan man shoots up a resturant because americans are in there....it's terrorism. Frankly I dont see the real difference.both are acts of violence that purposefully instill fear...both are targetted....both are terrorism. Tim Mcveigh blows up a building...it isnt treated like terrorism...we dont round up all the white christian militia males..we don't blame the Turner Diaries which gives a play-by-play suggestion on blowing up federal buildings. what do we do??? try to link an Islamic Fundy terrorist as the real mastermind..or atleast as the second gunman on the grassy knoll. *rolls eyes*
ELF's entire point is to NOT get people hurt. They don't generally randomly blow up things with people in the area. You're last 3 sentences regarding them are completely bunk. Especially considering that they're "headquarters" usually get word of the vandalism before any other press does. Even so, comparing someone who sets a car on fire as compared to rasicts who INTENTIONALLY target innocent people isn't very valid.
actually...ELF isnt an organized group...ELF is just the label that various "cells" can use when they commit crimesa dn there's a pretty website where people can learn how to build bombs and brag about what they did. and the majority of ELF hits aren't called in ahead of time. and they dont intend anyone to get hurt?? perhaps you should tell some of the people who do this stuff that. what the fuck??? they dont intend to hurt any people..blah blah blah. and how about the European factions?? they actually target people..along with that other terrorist group SHAC. I don't care what the cause is....you commit violent acts with the purpose of instilling fear...you are a terrorist. perhaps people agree with certain types of terrorism or agree with their agenda....but I can't agree with any of it...if it potentially puts the lives of innocent people(especially children) in danger. I think unjust military action committed by governments is terrorism as well. If our government declared Martial Law...I'd view it as an act of terrorism by the government on it's own people.
well said, otter. any act specifically committed to instill fear in people is terrorism, no matter who's doing it.
That was disgusting. Not the article, but the fact that this shit goes IGNORED in this country. I guess Bush and Co don't mind having terrorists around as long as they vote for him.
Timothy McVeigh was a registered Republican. http://mindprod.com/mcveigh.html Why Did McVeigh Do It? McVeigh, on the other hand, went through boot camp, a type of brainwashing given to all soldiers. It breaks people down and rebuilds them. Why would a democratic country put its citizens through brainwashing, using techniques similar to those in POW camps or religious cults? We do this to all soldiers for several reasons: It makes them able to kill without blinking. This is convenient in the middle of battle. You don't want soldiers taking time out for reflection on the morality of what they are doing. It makes them obedient. In the middle of a battle, there is no time for building a consensus by having an extended argument of the merits of the various approaches. It makes soldiers willing to kill, even when they don't have all that much personal motive or reason to kill. Politicians often hold wars for quite questionable motives. It would be inconvenient if soldiers refused to fight unless the cause were truly just. It makes soldiers willing to die for honour. You can then sacrifice them as cannon fodder when necessary. It makes them more likely to vote Republican, join the NRA, and generally act like obedient little sheep. http://www.vroosh.com/cgi-bin/cgsearch/cgsearch.cgi?query=republican+timothy+mcveigh&submit=Search&where=web&bkw=y
well, shit. at least they arrested krar. one hopes they also got the info on his buddes and some good person hiding out in the government is making a point to arrest these sick fucks. my friend was dating this seemingly normal guy, and then he met my boyfriend, who's half Indian. he flew off the handle. sometimes you just never know.
Please, feel free to inform us. What information does the great rat have that no one else knows? And I'm being serious, not insulting.
