The Place of Direct Action in Forest Defence

Lag cat: This is like the golden moment for direct action. In 19 89 a timber company was planning to clear cut log old growth forest out there, and started moving on it on easter in the snow. And a bunch of baras, direct action activists set up a five tiered blockade on a logging road to hold off the logging,. They successfully did for m days and days, until a bunch of them, i think over a dozen folks, got arrested, thrown in jail, and the forest was clear cut. So that's why thereis an open lawsuit, because we believe it's illegal what they're doing here.
