Civil Court proceedings against Mountain Top Removal activists for trespassing on the property of out-of-state coal operator, Massey Energy. A restraining order is being contested that is written broadly enough to include you, now that you've read this.

Court continues today.

1. Mountains should never be done this way...it hurts the whole planet..
and steals away from our children's children.
When you remove a whole mountain top, you are also effecting the wind currents. Expect terrible winds to get even worse when this happens.
When you remove a whole mountain top, you effect the ground water. There will be a lowering of the groundwater as there will be less accumulation of moisture, this in turn will destroy crops, farms, peoples lively hoods and add to global warming.
When you remove a whole mountain top, you are effecting all the birds and wildlife that depend on those mountains.
When you remove a while mountain top, you are stealing from the future generations of this planet.
This must be stopped now by whatever means it takes. This effects us ALL.
