Hostage Situation At Discovery Channel

The recent hostage situation at Discovery Channel has been resolved with the gunman being shot. However, it looks like that there is a lot more to this situation than meets the eye. The hostage taker appears to have taken his actions in protest against the programming choices of the Discovery Channel and issued a rather extreme 'manifesto'. For those easily angered by anti-human messages you may want to cease reading the continuation of this post and for those not familiar with the 'anti-human' movement allow me to explain in a simple sentence:

People that believe humans should cease to exist on Earth in order to preserve the Earth's natural state.

The hostage taker made posts demanding that the Discovery channel do things such as:

'Focus must be given on how people can live WITHOUT giving birth to more filthy human children since those new additions continue pollution and are pollution'

'Stop encouraging the birth of any more parasitic human infants'

'Talk about ways to disassemble civilization'

'Find ways so that people don’t build more housing pollution which destroys the environment to make way for more human filth!'

To many of you these statements will not only appear as shocking but also as disgusting, unwarranted and totally wrong. People that believe in and push the anti-human agenda are without doubt the true global criminals. Anyone who thinks they have the right to stop anyone else from having a child is breaking the most natural of all laws of nature. I am not for any second defending habitat destruction, deforestation or pollution but to say that the only way to fix these issues is by ceasing the human species is idiotic.

You will find these people quick to point out how un-natural a city, dam or farm is but then forget to mention beehives, bird's nests and termite mounds. Cities are just as natural as a termite mound or ant nest; it could even be argued that an ant nest is more complex in design than a city. To suggest that human activity is un-natural is to detach us from having a place on this Earth.

The thing that separates us from other animals is that we can appreciate what is around us. We can look in awe at a sunset or smile at the colours of a rainbow. If there's nobody here to appreciate the beautiful things on Earth, then what's the point in it all?
