[IMC-Editorial] Letter on ELF Arson in San Diego

[The Ayn Rand Institute]

Dear Editor:

What is the difference between the ELF environmentalists who burned down an apartment 
complex under construction in San Diego on Friday and "mainstream" environmentalists? 
The *means* they choose to chip away at--and eventually destroy--freedom and modern 
civilization. 

While ELF environmentalists employ direct violence to attack private property and 
prevent new development, "mainstream" environmentalists favor the indirect approach of 
using the government's power to do the same. Since human life requires and benefits from 
freedom and technology, both types of environmentalists are guilty of advancing an anti-
human agenda.

Sincerely,

David Holcberg
