Please call the Humboldt Co. Sherriffs Dept. and request they focus their energy on violent crimes not non violent forest defense. Also request that they use more care in handling Forest Defenders. Contact Governor Gray Davis and your local Reps. and tell them you support a ban on oldgrowth logging. Support Forest Defense! Donate to We Save Trees, North Coast EF!, Mattole Forest Defense and other Forest Defense Groups. Right now the last of the unprotected oldgrowth forests are being desecrated. We cannot replace these precious ecosystems. May The Forest Be With You!
