PORTLAND -- Radical environmentalist Jeffrey "Free" Luers has been released from prison after spending more than nine years behind bars for setting three SUVs on fire at a Eugene dealership. Luers was initially sentenced to almost 23 years in prison. That was a sentence many considered disproportionately harsh because no one was injured. The Oregon Court of Appeals reduced the sentence in 2007. A spokeswoman for the Oregon Department of Corrections said he was released from prison on Wednesday. Luers' co-defendant, Craig "Critter" Marshall, accepted a plea bargain and served less than five years in prison. -- The Associated Press Eugene Poice are in the process of using a remote robot to remove a device with "characteristics of an explosive device" from Broadway and Charleton Street with a remote robot. This is occurring at the site of the riot over the cutting of 60 large trees which was the largest story in Eugene, Oregon in 1997. Buildings nearby have ben evacuated and streets nearby closed until the device can be removed.

Why aren't you humping yukon tonight?
Heh, actually, I agree with you. Spiking is a foolish and cowardly act. I have never supported that tactic. I also was a woods worker 12 years planting trees and worked on wildland forest fires. Spiking hurts blue collar workers. There is no excuse for anyone to use that tactic. This has been my position for two decades, and no forest defender who does non-violent protest would do that sort of thing.
Innocent passerby you fookin idiot! Key.....riced, you are STUPID!
What's the difference between Racism_Boot's mouth and anal pore? There isn't any, they both spew gas and feces.
ethel's ex; You fall for this firefighters and cops are heroes crap. You're stupid and it shows. Yeah freddy boy? Well you are a piece of shit and it shows

Maybe Yukon's period is late and they are awaiting the preggers test's results before doing the nasty again. ;-)

In the world of these filthy freaks, any loss such as you mention is acceptable as collateral.....those "innocents" were guilty of some horror against Mom Earth..... clothes made from innocent cotton plants cut down ground up and mutilated....maybe rubber soled shoes created via the rape and forced "bloodletting" of rubber tress just when they were entering the prime of their lives.....savagely manipulated and whored out by force to support evil carbon dioxide generating human beings.....
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
I planted trees when I was twelve years young. I'll tell you about it sometime.

This has been my position for two de3cades, and no forest defender who does non-violent protest would do that sort of thing. Yeah sure, you just support them in all material ways. It was F ing Foreman's "Earth FIRST!" dick lickers who were supposedly at fault, but it really doesn't matter because ALL of you ecoNAZIES are the same. While You're TRYING to defend ARSON you mealy mouth POS. Spit ...

Blue collar workers huh? If the spike broke a chain off and it maimed the icky white collar supervisor out having a look that's ok though. Gaaackkkk you TARD freaks are repulsive to the core:)

Tell us all ok? Sounds positively mesmerizing......we'll wear out the edges of our seats on this one. Do break it up into multiple sessions so it doesn't use up too much bandwidth.
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
Heh, I had a leadership position at Skookum reforestation as a fire fighter working on forest fires in the late 80s and early 90s, and have planted hundreds of thousands of trees in the forest. What you say does not bother me. My work record is a matter or record with the Oregon Employment division. Take any spin you want, because it does not matter. The facts are just not with you. ;-D
Actually, I would not protect information about someone's spiking action. It is just not a sound tactic, and does the movement more harm then good when it happens.
Yes.....hundreds of thousands of trees.....of course:).....maybe millions of thousands.....or trillions of hundreds!!!! Sounds like you are the Wilt Chamberlain of knee proned tree daddies. Check this out Dog:):).....Mike probably gave all several hundred thousand little tree children names as well......
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
You can't spin arson.

Mike what's the sort of kinda obama looking avatar represent?
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
Sounds like you are the Wilt Chamberlain of knee proned tree daddies. Big deal he was a hoe-dad. So in "his" teeny bird like "brain" pan that makes ARSON alright? These ecoNAZIES are insane a$$holes. In saner times we'd just pith them. That would save many species, including our own.
Esse Quam Videri.
You are now confirmed and set to full posting privelages. Welcome.
Firefighters are about the only good ones in government. At least I always thought that. What do you have against fire fighters?
Mertz is a government parasite who can't stand people who actually risk life and limb to protect the community. Many are unpaid volunteers.

LOL!!!! I'm with you on the idea:):)

Yeah Mike....felonies are like that sometimes.....just not "sound". Say....speaking of felons.....how many Hummers never hit the assembly line thanks to Jeff's punkish arson actions?....for which he likely paid for by having his bunghole diameter stretched to tree trunk dimensions while playing wife/biotch in the slam?....chuckles.....he sure showed those nasty normal people a thing or two, really made a differnce huh?
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
True. One of Bush's hard working family values folks get much less time for killing America children run over by a drunk driving fat ass SUV.
That is just a version of the Obama logo I found interesting. I am doing seasonal order entry for Harry and David (harryanddavid.com) as I always have done since the mid 1980s with few breaks, and find the pie appropriate for what I do, which is sell cheesecake, fruit, fruit of the month clubs, baskets and towers to all kinds of ffolks.
Towers? Please elaborate.
This year, for the first time, I've been giving away spiral sliced hams to friends in the local area. I hope they like them.
The Register-Guard Appeared in print: Friday, Dec 18, 2009 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- News: Local: Story -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the second time this year, state prison officials on Wednesday released Eugene environmental activist and convicted arsonist Jeffrey “Free” Luers from custody. This time, it was no mistake. “It seems that they are going to let him stay out this time,” said his attorney, Lauren Regan of the Civil Liberties Defense Center in Eugene. On Oct. 2, prison officials set Luers free from the Columbia River Correction Institution in Portland because they erroneously believed that he qualified for a sentence reduction under a new “earned-time” policy. Luers, 30, checked in with his parole officer in Eugene a few hours later. That’s when he learned of the state’s blunder, and was told that he would have to spend another 21/2 months in prison. Regan said that fiasco made Luers less than certain that he would remain a free man following his early morning release Wednesday. “He was cautious about being too optimistic about getting out,” Regan said. “But he is out, and he’s unpacking his stuff now. He’s attempting to adjust back to a normal life.” Regan said Luers plans to live in Eugene and take classes next spring at Lane Community College. He eventually intends to apply to the University of Oregon’s landscape architecture program, she said. “He’s really focused on trying to get back the 10 years of his life that he lost,” Regan said. Luers had been behind bars since June 2000, when Eugene police arrested him in connection with a fire that burned three sport utility vehicles at the former Romania truck lot, and an attempted arson at Tyree Oil Co. in Eugene. In 2001, former Lane County Circuit Judge Lyle Velure sentenced Luers to 22 years and eight months in prison. Many activists characterized Luers as a political prisoner, and considered the punishment disproportionately harsh because no one was injured and the damage to the SUVs was estimated at only $28,000. Among the groups that questioned whether Luers’ sentence was politically motivated were Eugene’s Human Rights Commission and Amnesty International. In 2007, the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned Luers’ sentence, ruling that Velure improperly sentenced him to back-to-back prison terms for each of the 10 felonies he was convicted of committing. Lane County Circuit Judge Jack Billings restructured the sentence in 2008, which allowed Luers to be freed this month. Luers told Billings during a court hearing last year that he never intended to instill fear or a sense of victimization in the people he targeted, but instead wanted to promote change through “radical struggle.” “I can now say with all honesty that I was wrong to think that arson would inspire social change,” Luers said in court. Luers and his co-defendant, Craig Andrew Marshall, were arrested minutes after the Romania fire was reported. Eugene police had followed the pair from a storage unit where Luers lived and saw the men park near the Romania lot on Franklin Boulevard. Investigators found incense sticks, wooden matches, thread and sponges that matched two firebombs that failed to ignite in May 2000 at the Tyree Oil depot in the Whiteaker neighborhood. One of the Tyree bombs was placed under the fuel tank of a fume-filled tanker truck. Had it ignited, the device could have produced significant damage, investigators said. Marshall pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit arson and possession of a destructive device in the Romania case. He served more than four years in prison. http://www.registerguard.com/csp/cms/sites/web/news/cityregion/24269466-41/luers-prison-eugene-romania-fire.csp just wanted to share the local story with you all. I spoke to him a bit ago and he is doing well and seems to be quite happy and glowing.
Towers are stacks of boxes with goodies tied up with ribbons, like the Christmas Tower of Treats, 39.95, item 50z for example.
He lived in a storage unit?
Probably was living on the dole and that's the best he could afford.....only able to place "earth warrior/radical stuggler" and anarchist dolt on a resume must not have impressed even the minimum wage hiring managers much. ........ plus his friends might not have wanted him making incendiary devices for "the struggle" in the basement of their homes....better to risk the incineration of some evil capitalist carbon dioxide expelling storage unit owner's property than their own residences.
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way.
He lived with fellow anarchists in a warehouse area that had storage units ajacent to it. It was in the old Chef Francisco food production facility down off of Cross and W 1st St.
Was there any legitimate job involved....ever? Something like stocking the shelves at anarchists are us or something? I see he's entering Comm Coll to be some kind of landscape designer...good on him then....contributing something green rather than burning things brown.

He should have been given life without parole!
