FBI names domestic terrorist to 'most wanted' list
Source: USA Today

For the first time, the FBI has added an accused domestic terrorist to its "Most Wanted" list, the Associated Press reports.

The suspect: Daniel Andreas San Diego, a 31-year-old computer specialist from Berkeley, Calif., is wanted for the 2003 bombings of two corporate offices in California.

Authorities describe San Diego as an animal rights activist who turned to bomb attacks and say he has tattoo that proclaims, "It only takes a spark."

The addition of a domestic, left-wing terrorist follows criticism of the Obama administration for an internal Homeland Security report last week suggesting some military veterans could be susceptible to right-wing extremist recruiters or commit lone acts of violence, the AP says.

13. note the OP said this is the *first* "domestic terrorist" ever added to the list...

5. What makes this guy a terrorist, as opposed to someone who planted a bomb again? What
Edited on Tue Apr-21-09 09:53 AM by No Elephants
happened to the simple concepts of "criminal," "crime," and "criminal activity?" Is everything but petty theft terrorism these days?

12. Yes. And the bombings were designed to put FEAR into those he
was opposed to.

6. So PETA is a front for what?
PETA's only shelter (in DC) kills over 90% of animals taken in. (WTF?)

The people associated with PETA and this guy think they are justified in killing people. (Huh?)

Somehow I don't think that they are what they claim. Perhaps they were allowed to be set up exist to do enough damage to smear legitimate groups and allow surveillance, infiltration etc.

It is too simple that so many crazies would "love" animals above all else.

14. What in the fuck are you talking about?
I read the article, and am familiar with this particular idiot. I failed to see PETA mentioned.

15. "Left-wing" terrorist? Nonsense! Animal rights is anti-human.
There's nothing progressive or left-wing about it. What a shame that some on the left are taken in by it.

16. All animal-rights activists or sympathizers are anti-human?
Quite the generalization.

21. You are familiar with the Gandhi quote?
“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”

It's not one or the other - it's quite possible to care deeply about the suffering of all sentient beings.

20. All you have to do to allay suspicions is join the KKK or the "militia"..
As soon as it's known you're a right winger, no one in authority will care to investigate further..

And I'm not sure whether I'm being sarcastic or not..
