COALINGA, Calif. – Animal rights activists are taking credit for setting fire to and destroying 14 cattle trucks at California’s largest beef producing, feeding and marketing ranches.

The North American Animal Liberation press office posted an anonymous letter on its website from activists claiming full responsibility for the arson.

“We were extremely pleased to see that all 14 trucks ‘were a total loss,’ with some being ‘completely melted to the ground,’” the statement reads.

Casey told Foxnews.com that some of the trucks that were destroyed from the fire had sleeper units where truck drivers can sleep during off time, but none was occupied at the time of the fire.

“Not something that happens often, but it could [have] easily killed or seriously injured somebody,” he said.

But former soldiers, pro-lifers and others on the Right are the REAL terrorists!

Do I really need a sarcasm tag?!

While the Animal Liberation Front is not claiming direct responsibility for the fire, the organization provides a platform on their website for animal rights activists.

Providing material support for arson and terrorism.

The Harris brand is a FAMILY owned business. They produce a great product and there are darned few family owned cattle businesses anymore. If you can find their products please buy them. The family also does a ton of charity work in the local community. These stupid ALF folks should be tracked down and exterminated....like the vermin they are

Vermin?

These were terrorists that committed these acts but will NEVER be portrayed as such by the liberal media.

Bastards

BTW, my brother has made many a trip for that "$100 hamburger" for which Harris Ranch is known. Private pilots you know what I mean. Harris Ranch has a nice little hotel/restaurant and an airstrip parallel to I-5. Been there many times myself, but was always driving in, not flying. :)
