    Where did you get this idea? The FBI classifies people such as Eric Rudolph and Clayton Lee Waagner as terrorists. As James said, extremists are extreme. It doesn't matter on which extreme side of the political spectrum they choose to sit. Extremists due extreme things.

    Perhaps the minks are considered a pest species.

    i will happerly retract that if you can show me one abortion clinic bomber who has been charged (much less convicted) of terrioisum. There was a debate on this point a while ago and i belive bells asked the same thing and mad made the comment to bells (if i rember correctly) that "it cant be terriousium if its your own people doing it, only enermies can be terriousts" (exact quote as i rember it but i cant rember the thread to double check). Now if thats changed and the goverment are happy to lay terrioust charges against "christans" just like they will against green groups and muslims and call the organisations which plan and carry out these attacks (like fred phelp's church) "declared terrioust groups" then good

    Any species that is not native to the country's ecology is considered invasive species or pest species.

    did I mentioned that humans are walking gods of death becos we are so careless that we can bring funny species to foreign lands which destroy native wildlife.

    For Example, the dodo bird and also recently we have redback spiders in Japan.

    And you succeed in talking around my point without addressing it.

    Namely that if Minks are a pest species, then releasing them into the wild, irrespective of motivation constitutes ecoterrorism.

    err Asguard pls stick with the topic.

    Anyway ecoterrorism if they eventually think the lives of fellow men as insignificant would become like what the Taliban is today.

    You do realize the Jewish Anti-Defamation League is not an Environmentalist cause...right? And, who considers it a hate group...you?

    There are real eco-terrorists out there, they live in a delusional state in my opinion. They all have one thing in common: they view nature has the perfect unadulterated peaceful place, many of them believe we used to live in harmony with nature thousands of years ago and now we're at odds with it. I far stretch from "Nature used to kill us", none the less, some people will fight to recreate this 'Eden' even if it includes destroying the world we have now.
