If A Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front

[alexander]

Documentary on the ELF.

I thought it was a good doc. It explored the motives, successes, and failures of both the ELF and '90s/'00s environmental activism in general. At the same time it gets personal with one of the ELF guys, Daniel G. McGowan, whose story we follow in detail.

Its a good doc, i saw it not long ago, besides everything alexander mentions, something stroke me as completely abusive absurd and clear indication of this society value of the material property, with clear factual proofs, as we can see on the sentences some of this eco-heroes got, you can easly see murderers and rapists getting smaller prison sentences, these guys had more then 1000 hits zero human damage.
