Tree-sitter extraction Movie!!!

by Lodgepole (wesavetrees [at] ziplip.com)
Corporate "boom and bust" logging by Maxxam owned Pacific Lumber Co. and their contracted logging firms continue to descrate our watersheds and ignore the concerns of large numbers of residents. Tree-sitter removal is just another perfect example of just how lined the pockets of the government agencies in charge are, by the big money of P.L. and the rest of the industrial logging industry. Non-Violent Direct Action will continue to accompany Pacific Lumber logging plans and Tree-sits will be maintained and expanded upon until P.L. shows some kind of movement to change specific logging prescriptions. Those prescriptions are: and end to oldgrowth logging, an end to clearcutting (even aged management), an end to logging on steep and unstable slopes, and a ban on herbicide use.

We Save Trees is working around the clock to protect these ancient trees! Please help, get involved, and take responsible for the quality of our water, our forests, and our children for generations to come. We must stop ignoring the cumulative effects of this resource wasteful liquidation of oldgrowth forests, and start uniting together, as concerned citizens, to take control of the extreme logging practices being carried out by Pacific Lumber. Thank You!

Is there any action in the Mattole this week?
by Greenwood janitor
There has been, and will be more, activity in the Mattole this week. This morning, three activists pooped in buckets and lowered the buckets from the trees. Cormorant emptied the bucket and washed it out. This same thing happened yesterday, and on Sunday as well. With all this activity, you and other forest defenders are desperately needed to bury poop and to help Cormorant wash his leaders' poop out of the bucket. Cormorant is kinda getting grossed out by this!

Why is this site so one sided? If you want freedom of speech then why are you censoring post? I see people post diffent points of view, yet if they are not what you believe in then they are deleted. This is screw up

I need help. Calling all forest defenders. Come one, come all. Buckets of human crap are filling up at staggering rates. Everytime I turn around, a person in a tree lowers down a bucket full of human crap for me to bury in the watershed. Your help is needed, so donate more money so that I can buy a few more buckets and maybe a pair of rubber gloves and a nose plug.

I'm seeing more of this "May the forest be with you" crap.
I mean what up with this? Star Wars fantasy stuff? All that evil empire analogys? Ewok village dramas? Drums and fire when the the "death corperation" ( I mean "star" ) blows up?
Don"t you relize it sounds as immature as putting a pirate flag up among your tree sits? Hell at least someone had the sense to take that down.
Kids!!!

Let me guess... The above photo is titled "anna7" because it's her underware he has on his head?

To all Forest defenders:

Please send Cormorant some cheese to feed to the activists in the trees. He is up to his eyes in crap out there. Mornings are the worst time of day for him. He must bury all the turds that get lowered down to him and then wash out the buckets. Someone sent the activists bran on Wednesday, which only made this situation more dire. Please send cheese!

In Freshwater, the turds are arriving at the forest floor at an alarming rate, but I have gotten help burying the poo and washing out the buckets from a few other defenders and from special forest guest, Bonnie Raitt.

This work is of the utmost importance! Please send cheese and some Lysol.

Tell those people on Greenwood heights road to go home. They are hampering the lawful harvest of privately owned trees. If they really want to help the environment they sould head to the third world and protest the harvest of virgin hardwood forests where environmental damage truly is occuring. Oh yeah and I forgot tell Bonnine Raitt to go fuck herself.

There is so much human fecal material out in the Mattole, I can't walk around and do my job with out getting my feet soiled. Send porta potties so we can protest and have a peaceful place to crap.

It is an essential part of American democracy that when powerful interests act illegally and in such manner as deprives the citizenry of its rights, that citizens WILL interfere with those powers. Both US and international law provide for civil disobedience where necessary.

The cheese arrived in the mattole late Friday night, and Cormorant quickly distributed slices to the people in the trees. The tree sitters have been bound up for several days now, giving Cormorant a well needed break from burying poop in the watershed. He is now ready for the onslaught of poop that is sure to come his way either tommorow or even as early as tonight. Woody Harrelson has promised a pair of rubber gloves, four new buckets to poo in, and some antibacteria toweletts that he got at the Kentucky Fried Chicken restaraunt that he owns in Marin.

Thank you for your support, people. And remember......sometimes non violent civil disobedience to stop corporations forces people to climb in trees and poop in buckets. And that means that I am more valuable because they need me to wash out the buckets so that they don't have to deal with their poop. it feels good to be needed.

Woody Harrelson has promised a pair of rubber gloves, WOULDN'T A ROLL OF TOILET PAPER BE A LITTLE MORE HYGIENIC?
