Apartment complex fire may be tied to radical environmental group
http://www.sacbee.com/state_wire/story/12266311p-13130370c.html

An early morning fire at brand new apartment complex may be the work of radical environmentalists who also claimed responsibility for several recent Northern California arsons, officials said Monday.
The fire at the 128-unit Pinewoods apartment complex broke out around 3 a.m., Sutter Creek Chief of Police Robert Duke said Monday. Only two of the apartments were occupied, and a fire suppression system helped keep the damage confined, he said. Sutter Creek is in Amador County, about 45 miles east of Sacramento.

1. doubtful, IMO
Insurance, more likely. Only two apartments were occupied?

And I will occasionally hear, months later, that one of the ecoterror fires was actually insurance. Almost always, as a matter of fact.

2. Remember the Maryland fire? They said it was environmentalists
And it turned out to be a bunch of racists.

3. They twist and twist
How they can call someone who sets houses on fire "environmentalist" is beyond me...enormous amounts of harmful materials are released into the air and water when a modern home burns; these kooks DAMAGE the environment and are nothing but vandals.

4. Why is it always "radical environmental groups" when something in
the US burns down lately? As far as I know it's not the favorite pastime of environmentalists to burn down things, radical or no and even in the US. But you do have an administration who despises environmentalists...

Don't believe anything anymore.
