Just a thought... not that I'm advocating for ELF.
Right, but don't you think that the builders will rebuild? That's a lot of construction material to be used...twice.

I personally prefer inner-ring suburbs and rehabbing of older homes, but burning down new developments isn't the way to go.

Terrorism and violence is an awesome way to turn people off of your cause.
