Bad week for animal rights extremists

Cam Edwards reports that four animal rights types were arrested for hunter harrassment in New Jersey. Added to the six federal arrests for eco-terrorism in the Northwest, it makes it a bad week for animal rights extremists.

A friend of mine had the best response to hunter harrassment. The friend pointed out the harrassers rarely know much about the outdoors, and often wear shorts, short-sleeve shirts, etc. So as they follow you you cut through the worst brambles you can find. After they are quite lacerated, you take them back into the most isolated, confusing terrain around. Then you lose them. They haven't mapped the course or scouted it in advance: they were counting on you to lead them back. With any luck, they'll have an authentic overnight wilderness experience, without sleeping bags, food, or water.
