ELF Knocks Down AM Towers To Save Earth, Intercoms

ScentCone writes "The ELF (Earth Liberation Front) has claimed responsibility for destroying the primary AM towers used by radio station KRKO in Washington state. From their statement: 'AM radio waves cause adverse health effects including a higher rate of cancer, harm to wildlife, and that the signals have been interfering with home phone and intercom lines.' The poor intercom performance must have been the last straw."

Yeah, it's not surprising though, a lot of people want to use government to force the world to be the way they want it. Environmentalists want to keep the earth as unchanged as possible, even if it means no water for farmers (big problem right now in California). Even if it means chopping 40% off the GDP in order to reduce carbon dioxide output. Or burning houses and SUVs.

Religious people want to make sure no one has sex in weird ways. Poor college students want to be able to download songs for free, even though a dollar a song isn't really all that much. Corporations want to get as much as possible from you, and hippies want to destroy the corporations. The guy who lives next door to me thinks fighting should be legal. I kind of understand, since he is a big guy that would work to his advantage. For us smaller people, suing is a more attractive option.

If I didn't offend anyone in this post, please let me know and I'll do a follow up. The point is, it's not really about cancer, ELF won't be happy until the world is the way they want it to be, which is essentially people-less. And it's hard to say how the world SHOULD be, and throughout a lot of history, we've solved that problem by having kings who fight and kill those who disagree with their vision of the world. The strongest man wins.

In our more civilized age, we now use democracy, essentially rule by the majority, which is only better because it is somewhat less violent. And if enough people think freaky sex is bad for society, well it will be outlawed. Sorry for you if you want to do it. If most people think churches should start paying taxes, then that's going to happen too. It's how our society works, and it's only good in that it's better than the alternatives.

Holy Christ, if I knew you were going to respond like that I would have just kept my mouth shut.

I'm not going to debate the relative morality of the ELF with you. The fact that you want to says more about you than I ever could.

I hear Canada has lots of oil.

We'll just take that to help pay for our war expenses, like we did in Iraq. Heck, let's just turn all of western Canada into States 51,52,53,54,and 55. From what I hear many of them would be happy to join the U.S. since the Ottawa government ignores them.
