A new report indicates that on November 9, 2019, an eco-terrorist organization claims they murdered tech executives Tushar Atre and Erin Valenti.

Recent events in Minnesota, New York, and New Jersey may make some people apprehensive about their personal security in public places. The reason terrorists commit these types of crimes is to invoke fear into the general public.
