- Since Greenpeace has never killed or injured anyone, one could rightly
- wonder why Brian thinks Greenpeace deserves this violence. With
- incidents like this one and others, where logging trucks run over
- non-violent logging protesters, it becomes quite clear that it is not
- the environmentalists who are the true terrorists. When non-violent
- protesters are injured and murdered by those they protest and then
- are labeled as ecoterrorists or econazis, we can see a true
- bastardization of the language; the new "politically correct" crowd.
