Yea, thank goodness for Joe,a young man with a now needless criminal record, while the coward ringleader holds book signings all over the country.

Glad to see he is where he belongs, in JAIL with the other criminals. Do the crime, pay the time……As far as anyone getting brownie points, WVJudy, I think Don Blankenship is just looking out for his men and trying to help them take care of their families, something the environmentalist know nothing about afterall they are just college students paid to do this stuff…RIGHT! I mean the two that where at Walker Machinery in Belle, stated, they were just paid to do that crime, they knew nothing about coal, or what was going on….

WV judy, you could not be more wrong. In fact, who gets arrested? Simple, those that do wrong get arrested. Conspiracy…wrong! Tresspassing…wrong! In fact on this web-site, it says, 100 people have been arrested. Do you realize what that means, 100 times these people have been WRONG. What I can’t figure out is why people will give money to others that have been wrong 100 times. To me, being arrested is not a badge of honor. I am willing to bet that if one of the miners came to your house, sat down in your living room, un-invited, at some point you would call the police and demand he be arrested. Now, think of this being part of your daily life 100 times. Why would not think well of Judge Byrneside? Why is it ok to commite crimes at a place of work but not your house? You do think it is ok, because, you are WRONG.

Matt, am I to believe you deny Mike was quoted on the Ruckus Society calling for people to ” come take action on Massey property”? It takes no mastermind to see he’s a very large influence and leader in the environmental community. Matt, if you are the same person having an on line spat with Mr Ward at the Gazette, it also takes no mastermind to see that you,Ward and Mr Biggers are in it for the big cash prize.
