Minks caged is not natural
Minks killing each other and everything else due being hungryis natural

Would someone please explain me is it natural to have 10,000 minks in a farm sized area...

Off topic..but...

Remember the show "Taxi"?  Tony Danza's character bought himself a bunch of minks to get into the fur business.  He then made the comment "I can't wait until they start shedding." (so he could make some money).



These people are just as stupid.

Aren't these the same people that broke into the lab with the infected monkeys and let loose that virus that turned like 99% of England into zombies or something, it was late and I don't remember much from that documentary film...

the funny thing is that the destructing they do dosen't really stop anything, it just makes more business for the corporations that they hate.  well ok , it's not "funny" , it's pathetic,misguided,etc.

This might not be a completely apt analogy, but think of John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry in 1859.  "His were the errors of a fanatic, not the crimes of a felon."

These people are like really really premature John Browns.

I mean.. is it natural to have the minks going around *freely*.

reason being: minks doesn't live well together in a small area, especially without sufficient food. -> something which isnt natural, since nature tends to fix it by having minks kill each others, therefore you won't see that in the real nature!

Don't worry, they are apparently rounding up hippies at random...



Authorities release suspect in SUV arson at West Covina dealership
Associated Press/September 16, 2003

West Covina, Calif. -- A 25-year-old man arrested last week for allegedly starting a fire that caused $1 million in damage to a Hummer dealership was released after authorities said they had insufficient evidence to charge him.

Joshua Thomas Connole, of Pomona, was freed Monday about 4:30 p.m. from the lockup at the West Covina Police Department, said sheriff's Deputy David Cervantes. Connole was arrested at his home Friday by federal agents and initially booked for investigation of felony arson and vandalism.

West Covina police Cpl. Rudy Lopez said the case against Connole, who still remains a suspect, could not be presented to prosecutors within the required 48-hour period.

"Once we put all the evidence together, we will file at a later day," Lopez said. "We still consider him a player in this incident."

Connole maintained his innocence after his release.

"The FBI was doing everything they could to intimidate me," he said, and to make him "confess to something I didn't do."

Fires that broke out Aug. 22 gutted a parts warehouse and destroyed 20 Hummer H2 sport utility vehicles at a West Covina dealership. Another 20 Hummers and several Chevrolet Tahoe SUVs were significantly damaged by fire and spray-painting.

Three other dealerships and at least four privately owned vehicles in the area also were damaged during the vandalism spree.

Words such as "ELF," "Fat, Lazy Americans" and "I (heart) pollution" were painted on the SUVs. "ELF" stands for Earth Liberation Front, a loose association of militant environmentalists. The group, which previously has taken responsibility for other acts of arson and vandalism, claimed in an unsigned e-mail that the SUV fires were "ELF actions."

After the arson and vandalism spree, the FBI released surveillance video from a Ford dealership in Duarte that showed two young men spray-painting SUVS.

Connole, who is a member of a solar-powered cooperative home dedicated to peace and environmentalism, said he has seen the video and denied involvement in the vandalism.

"How can anyone think that was me?" he asked, referring to one young man seen in the video. "The guy had Nike shoes on. I would never wear Nike shoes."

you know who pays for that damage? YOUR insurance companys, and you know who pays YOUR insurance company?....YOU

I don't get the point of many animal rights causes. They have their priorities wrong if you ask me. While conservation and anti-pollution practices should be enforced by law, campaigning at the way animals are treated in other countries is particularly annoying. Especially when so many people die every day across the world from stupidly preventable diseases or from lack of having clean drinking water.

ELF sets fire to two luxury homes in a Macomb County housing development in an action against urban sprawl. Damages estimated at $700,000.

Wouldn't it have been more effective to petition the local government to purchase the land and turn it into a park?

Or, start a grassroots movement to reduce the number of permits issued for clearing land for new construction (thereby increasing the value of land that has already been developed)?

Good for them.  I hate the contracts negotiators for Deloitte and Touche.
