River Booby-Trapped

(Portland, Oregon) According to this report, the popular summer pastime of tubing and rafting on rivers has become more hazardous since it's been discovered that they may be intentionally booby-trapped. Domestic environmental terrorists, possibly the ELF or ALF, are suspected.

The method being used is to drill or hammer long nails and spikes into rocks on the shallow river bottom to puncture and rip open rubber tubes and pontoons. The nails are visible just below the river's surface at low water levels. With increased flow, they become hidden, about the same time that kids flock to the river for floating fun.

This potentially-deadly mischief fits right in the category of hammering 10-inch spikes into trees to kill loggers.

Bastards!
