Of course that's also been blown out of proportion (there's only been one death due to tree spiking for example - and that was due to a missing debris guard at the lumber mill). This is simpy due to the fact that any commerical lumber equipment really doesn't have a problem cutting through spikes - it does dull and damage the equipment But the point is correct. Most monkey wrenchers are specifically aiming to inflict economic damage and protect the trees but in any group there are those that lose sight of reality. Even groups like Peta used to be (way back when!) worth listening to but in the past few years the extreme voice has completely overshadowed their mission. The same goes groups like EarthFirst!, followers of Pat Robertson and Rush and many, many others. Very little good in my opinion can come from any extreme viewpoint. Statements like "There are some bad republicans but no good democrats.", "The only good >anything< is a dead >anything<.", "Meat is murder", etc - all cause harm than good (in my opinion).
