Ward 3 Man Suffers Environmental Hate Crime

Allison Klein of The Washington Post reports a hate crime not seen in Ward 3 before.

A resident in a "liberal" part of Brandywine Street had his Hummer vandalized be so-called eco-terrorists.

There are many more productive ways to express frustration over consumptive excess.

I appreciate the comment. While I would personally never purchase or voluntarily drive a vehicle such as a Hummer, it is clear that this crime was caused by folks who are motivated by eco-terrorist type tactics.

I think there is a lot of unwarrented property destruction which is random, such as teens wielding a baseball bat on mail boxes or side view mirrors. This act was clearly motivated by other philosophies.

I will ponder your suggestion and consider choosing words more carefully in the future.
