“Targeted guinea pig farm closes”

British enviro-terrorists score another victory:

The family-run Darley Oaks Farm in Newchurch, Staffordshire, has been at the centre of a campaign of abuse.
The owners and people connected with the business have received death threats during the six-year onslaught.

There are two notable things about this story: the UK police have essentially given up trying to stop enviro-terrorists because the campaign had been so widespread, and the state-run BBC gives several paragraphs to quote the environuts, (who differ only on tactics) but no room at all to any opposing position. Whether that is because advocates of individual rights have been totally marginalized, or were never there to begin with, I don’t know.
