Moonbat Terrorists Sabotage Train Tracks

Since the establishment does more to encourage than to prevent leftist terrorism, no one should be surprised that it is becoming more serious. Moonbat terrorists have taken to sabotaging train tracks:

SAMANTHA FRANCES BROOKS, 27, and ELLEN BRENNAN REICHE, 23, both of Bellingham, Washington, were arrested Saturday night in Bellingham as they allegedly placed a ‘shunt’ on the tracks. A shunt disrupts the low level electrical current on the tracks and can disable various safety features.

This isn’t an isolated incident.

“Since January there have been 41 incidents of shunts placed on the BNSF tracks in Whatcom and Skagit counties—causing crossing guards to malfunction, interfering with automatic braking systems, and, in one case, causing the near-derailment of tanks of hazardous chemicals,” said U.S. Attorney Moran.

Placing shunts is so indiscriminately malevolent, you would think al Qaeda was behind it.

On ten occasions, shunts were placed in areas that disrupt the crossing guards where the tracks cross streets, so vehicles could have tried to cross the tracks unaware of the oncoming train. On the night of October 11, 2020, multiple shunts were placed in three different locations in Whatcom and Skagit Counties. The shunts triggered an automatic braking system on a train that was transporting hazardous and combustible material. The emergency braking then caused a portion of the train to decouple from the engine. Decoupling has the potential to cause a derailment—in this case—of tanker cars of flammable gas in a residential area.

No worries. Even if random innocent people end up getting killed, the important thing is that it is for a politically correct cause.

An Antifa website claimed responsibility for railway attacks in the area in solidarity with Wet’suwet’en Indians, because America exists on stolen land, et cetera.

Ellen Reiche’s vehicle was parked near the scene of the arrest, sporting a sticker on the back asserting that the USA should belong to Indians.

Occasion2B has some background on Reiche, despite the suspects’ apparent efforts to scrub themselves from the Internet. Pronouns have been corrected on the assumption that Reiche is female, although with moonbats, it isn’t easy to tell these days:

Reiche, who identifies as “non-binary” and uses “they/them” pronouns, was the deputy field organizer for Washington State Democrats, according to [her] now-deleted LinkedIn profile. …

Additionally, Reiche is a radical queer and environmental activist who co-founded the Bellingham Lesbian Collective. [She is] a co-host on “The L World” lesbian-themed podcast.

Deranged people are drawn to deranged ideas. This results in deranged behavior, which in turn results in innocent people getting hurt. This is what makes the ideology espoused by the education and media establishments so dangerous.
