Earth Liberation Front strikes again

Sound Politics:
Terrorists Strike in Woodinville
As reported by KING5, terrorists claiming to be from the Earth Liberation Front have burned down empty homes in Woodinville.
I have nothing much to say about this, because the criticism is obvious. I would like to point out that, apart from the obvious fact that this creates pollution and causes even more trees to be cut down, that using trees for houses is actually a good thing for the environment, provided they are older trees: they are mostly full of CO2 and we can cut them down and replace them with new trees that can suck up more CO2. But when you burn down a home, that releases the stored CO2.
Burning down homes is one of the worst things you can do for the environment: far worse than building them in the first place. But terrorists don't really care much for facts.
ELF is a bunch of stupid, willfully ignorant idiots and needs to be rooted out and destroyed. Grandstanding acts like this do more harm to the environmental movement than good and gives environmentalists a bad name.
I am still pissed as hell at them for burning the
University of Washington's Center for Urban Horticulture destroying numerous valuable and rare books in the library and burning endangered plants that were being preserved at the center.
