Eco-Terrorists: Fed up with fracking

The natural gas boom promises to boost US energy supplies over the next decade and perhaps farther. Energy companies and landowners are making money but at what cost? The Pennsylvania office of homeland security has gathered evidence that "environmental extremists" but yet the activists say they were peacefully protesting fracking.

"Terrorist" = anyone who isn't a drooling, fanatical government supporter

The USA is about as fascistic as you can get. The gov't works on behalf of the corporations. The gov't uses taxpayer dollars to hire foreign Israeli companies to spy on its own people on behalf of a corporation who sees these environmentalists (but also legitimate competitors) as a danger to their business and profits.

It also confirms that you don't have free speech in the USA. Everything is monitored. Phones are tapped. E-mails are read. Website activity is logged. Cell phones are GPS located.

We have been under a mature brand of fascism for decades. It requires circuses & distractions to keep the masses pacified.

Our U.S.A. is on a slippery slope towards fascism. Wake up, people and speak out. Thank you for posting this vidcast.

FEAWIN....... the amount of money that gas and oil is/will cost is beside the point here.! The fact is... we have already seen that this process DOES destroy water supplies! don't ya get it? They are well passed "making sure it doesn't mess up the water". It has, is, and will. That is why this should be banned here in NYS. But hey, don't let facts get in the way. Money will do the talking!

oxymoron 'natural gas' puts the mental in environmental

[DillonDee1]

@Feawin --

so far as benefits -- so much nat gas has been produced from fracking that the price of nat gas has dropped in half to about $4 & it's far less polluting than coal

Now a great deal of oil is also coming from fracking - so much so now some companies worry the price may drop sharply & you'll be able to fill up at $2 per gal

This can be said - kill all fracking & you'll have $12 nat gas & pay $12 per gal at the pump

Key is - make sure drilling doesnt mess up the water

Who supports eco terrorism ?> ?

[AllDogsGoToHeaven100]

Let me sum this up for ya, RT Studio, Washington DC.

Environmental terrorism is the unlawful destruction of resources in order to deprive others of its use. The term also refers to the unnessesary destruction of the environment for personal gain.

What's with all the false "ECO TERRORIST" labeling? Yelling fire in the theater?
