I'm sitting in my favorite coffee shop this morning and in walks a young man with a black sweatshirt with "Animal Liberation Front....Human Extermination" printed on it. He was carrying an old Motorola radio and what looked like a mace dispenser can. The shop was full of patrons including young children so I kept my mouth shut (difficult for me). I thought to myself as I often do on these matters: what sort of moral compass created this person's views? But, alas, I spent a career in the military defending his right to express himself regardless of how distorted, though I heard reports of this group being aggressive.

Domestic terrorist. Plain and simple. Tell him if he wants human extermination, you'll do him the favor, starting with him.

This has been on my mind a lot lately.

IMHO it is the press we more or less watch/listen to today. They are the main disease tearing this country apart. Backed by big money, told what to do and say, and they themselves being already brainwashed. The same money that has destroyed our colleges and universities.

I used to think it was/is the politicians. I am now convinced they only use, or are being used, by the press to destroy this country.

This is why I seldom ever listen to any news network at all. There are ways to find the real truth and that is what I do, or try to find.

Probably safe to do away with the pretense that the left is a tolerant bunch. It's a good thing conservatives are slow react in kind.

I just moved from outside the greater Portland Metro area and i can tell you I am familiar with where those morals can come from. In this area of the world it is a travesty to deal with predators of the animal sort but they freely use taxpayer money to hand out needles and drug use kits including spoons to the public for free. Even teenagers with no issue of consent. They also praise how friendly they are with the homeless population in the area. Let me tell you that is a tragedy in itself right there. Absolutley disgusting what those of us on the utility work side of the world have to deal with that the state and City will do nothing about.

Folks from that culture are taught that the way we think is so morally wrong that they view our viewpoints the same way we view theirs as crude ridiculous and barbaric. It is such a diverse switch in culture i don't believe there is a way around it. They think that their ability to speak out gives the right to not have repercussion for anything they physically do.

I'm disappointed. I thought this was going to be a thread about 80's television characters, or at least a raccoon that looks like one.

If I recall correctly, the old "ALF" was an acronym for "Alien Life Form." At least that ALF was good natured and didn't mind catching a cat or two...

I have said it before and I will say it again, "the news media is the greatest threat to the Country there is".

This is true.

Television programs and movies are being used to destroy the US too. Look at all the shows that attempt brain wash viewers into non violence and acceptance of cultures that are actively destroying ours.

ALF claimed responsibility for torching Rocky Mt. Fur a few years back. Domestic Terrorism for sure.
