As many of you may have heard/read.....the West Covina Hummer dealership was suddenly and deliberately attacked by radical environmentalist just yesterday...August 22nd, a day that will forever live in infamy. Okay.....that may be a bit alarmist....but: We are organizing a swift and quick response to this terroristic act of anti-SUV action carried out by the Environmental Liberation Front (ELF). We intend to gather/rally at West Covina tomorrow at around 10am....so show support for our community, the Hummer dealership and to send a message that whether it's the Al-Queda or ELF...terrorism will not deter our way of life or succeed in accomplishing anything. Anyone in the Los Angeles area...we need numbers! | ||

Are these the same folks that burn down people's houses and ski lodges in Colorado? Sounds like someone needs to give them a "Chemical Polution from Burning 101" class. Steve, good luck with your crusade. I am a bit curious why the FBI or some other type of government agency is not putting a stop to these homeland terrorists. | ||

Paul they are the same group that torched the ski lodge and condos in Colo. I hope they show up for you Steve {grin}. | ||

We have several members of our group that are law enforcement and licensed to carry weapons. On account of only my club and the media knowing about this "rally"....I seriously doubt we'll meet with any counter-protesters... ...but IF we do: I pity the fools!!!!!!! I'll try to make a video out of this! | ||

Steve, Thanks! You are giving an excellent example of what we should all be doing. There are lots of folks who spend time on this BBS, but do little to contribute to the sport we participate in. Way too many trails are lost each and every day. An opportunity like this can give four-wheelers a much better stance in public opinion. Curtis | ||

Rush Limbaugh mentioned this today as well. Might be on his website (http://www.rushlimbaugh.com), but I honestly don't know. I'll second Curtis' sentiments: Way to go! | ||

It's on the home page of Yahoo! right now under "In The News." Below is the link for the article. There were also pictures to view of the event and the damage but I did not look at them. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20030825/ap_on_re_us/car_deale rship_fire_1 |
