Hummer Fans Rally at Calif. Dealership

WEST COVINA, Calif. (AP) -- Public officials, firefighters and Hummer fans rallied outside an auto dealership to denounce the unidentified vandals who
did $1 million in damage as an environmental protest.
``We don't disagree with the need to improve fuel efficiency,'' said West Covina City Councilman Mike Miller. ``But vandalism
doesn't get the message across.''
About 25 members of a Southern California Hummer fan club joined officials outside Clippinger Chevrolet for Sunday's rally. They toured the area
where fires early Friday gutted a parts warehouse and destroyed 20 Hummer H2s. Another 20 Hummers and several Chevrolet Tahoes were significantly
damaged by fire and spray-painting.
Three other dealers and at least four privately owned vehicles in the area also were damaged during the vandalism spree.
Miller said council members planned to meet with local auto dealers this week to discuss ways to improve security.
``We are concerned,'' said Josh Sage, a sales manager at Huntington Beach Chrysler Jeep and Hummer. The dealership moved its Hummers to a
back lot and hired an extra security guard to patrol all night, he said.
The Earth Liberation Front, a loose association of militant environmentalists that has claimed responsibility for other acts of arson and vandalism,
said in an unsigned e-mail Friday that the incidents were ``ELF actions'' but added it had not be in contact with those responsible.
Slogans such as ``Fat, Lazy Americans'' and ``I (heart) pollution'' were painted on vehicles.

if that's what the orig message said, then there prolly wouldnt been exceptions taken and the message prolly wouldnta been deleted.
that said, its much like the current debate little johnny howards going on about to divert our attention. debatibng that that public schools sanitise
everything to the point of politaclly correct bullshit.
its prob true. but jeez, if we all carnt say (type) things without censoring incase we ruffle a few feathers and if we all take offense to some
generalisations and post harsh retorts and all start going each other like some soap opera, there's seriously something wrong.
i rekon everyones taking things too seriously. take a step back, leave the puker if you have to & get into the shed & think about vws.
chill pills all round....
