Having worked in the timber industry for a number of years. I can understand why some of these forestry workers react the way they do/did. And know what some of these feral greenies get up to too... the sabotageof machinery (designed to injure the operator) and the spiking of trees. While I dont agree with either sides violence, I certainly see why it happens. I think you would get pretty upset too if someone came in and made your workplace unsafe.
