Quote:
Aiken ruled that three of Meyerhoff's arsons were intended to coerce the conduct of government and therefore constituted acts of terrorism under federal sentencing guidelines.
"It was your intent to scare and frighten other people through a very dangerous and psychological act -- arson," Aiken told Meyerhoff. "Your actions included elements of terrorism to achieve your goal.
"The fact that your actions were completely irrational doesn't mitigate this. Nor does the fact that no one was hurt."

Good! Eco-terrorists deserve more than a slap on the wrist.
