Figure I would pass along some knowledge regarding oil and gas company's
Note how they refer to the oil/gas company as the terrorist. They aren't that far off the mark as most pipelines are in rural areas and do pose a threat to peoples life (terror act section whatever). It's not like they go off by accident to often but when they do they are the most covered up act. The sour gas pipelines at least stinks and you have some kind of warning...most lines are sweet gas (pure before they add things for the city folk)and don't stink. The only warning you have from them is a crispy critter.
The ludwig affair did produce admitted evidence that the rcmp blew up some facility's with oil company knowledge. They were repremanded by the judge for initially denying they blew up gas facility's but ended up fessing up to the act in the end.
The perfortrators might like to know that if they are successful in blowing up a line ,they will probably get blown up with it as these lines are under high pressure and can send fireballs km's in the air and the heat produced can burn skin off like the raiders of the lost ark movie from kilometers away.
Most rural people have these lines in there backyard and have no idea of the threat they pose..this is not like the pencil thin stinky low pressure lines in the city...
Another thing is don't expect the rcmp to protect you from oil/gas company terror they protect them from you the victim in these and many cases.
Everybody handles threats to their life differantly..some don't give a shit and some get extremely excited and nervous...it's too bad they have to resort to extreme measures to get their point across, but you go ahead and try and stop a gas company from operating in your backyard and see what happens.
At least no one is dead yet...hope they keep it that way...high pressure gas lines and people don't mix.
