Violent roots. What the what are you talking about?

The guy was a nut, does that necessarily rub off on an organization?

Taking the stand in his own defense; Einhorn claimed that Maddux was murdered by CIA agents who attempted to frame Einhorn for the crime due to Einhorn's investigations on the Cold War and "psychotronics". However, after only two hours of deliberation, the jury did not find his testimony credible and affirmed his conviction on October 17, 2002.[8]
green, nutty, and a murdering psychopath.

Educate yourself on the leaders of other closely related environmental groups like ALF, ELF, Earth First, Arissa, SHAC, etc... . That the co-founder of Earth Day had a dark side of violence is not an isolated incident with these far left radical eco-groups. Many are involved in eco-terrorism.

IMO, yes, it absolutely not only rubs off on a group like fleas do a dog but such radical personalities with violent pasts attract more of the same. You can see it clearly in other far left political organizations outside of the environmental movement as well.

Earth Day: The History of A Movement | Earth Day Network

The idea came to Earth Day founder Gaylord Nelson, then a U.S. Senator from Wisconsin, after witnessing the ravages of the 1969 massive oil spill in Santa Barbara, California. Inspired by the student anti-war movement, he realized that if he could infuse that energy with an emerging public consciousness about air and water pollution, it would force environmental protection onto the national political agenda. Senator Nelson announced the idea for a “national teach-in on the environment” to the national media; persuaded Pete McCloskey, a conservation-minded Republican Congressman, to serve as his co-chair; and recruited Denis Hayes as national coordinator. Hayes built a national staff of 85 to promote events across the land.

Finally proof that the foundation of the green/earth/environmentalist movement in this country has a dubious background.

You honestly had to know those hippie-green-veggie eating-hemp shoe wearing-pot smokers were all freaks following the king of the freaks.

I had no doubt about it at all.

Probably when he got around to it. Composting in a trunk does no good for the earth. Most killers know you need to plant the body to help the earth.

He's Jewish too, does this mean all Jews are murderers?

Hitler liked to wear khakis...does this mean everyone who wears khakis is a Nazi?

Same logic.

Have anything factual equating ONE nut job with "the ROOTS behind MANY environmental groups" or are you counting on hysteria to suffice?

Perhaps we should start looking into that great right wing group the Hells Angels and see how many right wing groups they form the roots of?

Perhaps we should make everyone aware of that great church goer John List too and allege he represents the roots of many religious groups, eh?
