Apparently there is a gunman in their building now that has taken hostages, is armed and appears to be wearing a suicide bombers vest.

2-3 weeks ago their phone lines got flooded with calls from protesters. Protesting what is unknown...

WHOA! - what a nut case!

Law enforcement authorities have identified the Discovery Communications hostage-taker as James Jay Lee, according to NBC News.

Lee has a history of protesting the Discovery Channel; in 2008, he was arrested on charges of littering and disorderly conduct over a protest he organized against the network, according to DCist.

Lee is believed to be behind the website SaveThePlanetProtest.com, which lists 11 demands for the Discovery Channel. Among them, specific programming suggestions:

The Discovery Channel MUST broadcast to the world their commitment to save the planet and to do the following IMMEDIATELY:

1. The Discovery Channel and it's affiliate channels MUST have daily television programs at prime time slots based on Daniel Quinn's "My Ishmael" pages 207-212 where solutions to save the planet would be done in the same way as the Industrial Revolution was done, by people building on each other's inventive ideas. Focus must be given on how people can live WITHOUT giving birth to more filthy human children since those new additions continue pollution and are pollution. A game show format contest would be in order. Perhaps also forums of leading scientists who understand and agree with the Malthus-Darwin science and the problem of human overpopulation. Do both. Do all until something WORKS and the natural world starts improving and human civilization building STOPS and is reversed! MAKE IT INTERESTING SO PEOPLE WATCH AND APPLY SOLUTIONS!!!!

2. All programs on Discovery Health-TLC must stop encouraging the birth of any more parasitic human infants and the false heroics behind those actions. In those programs' places, programs encouraging human sterilization and infertility must be pushed. All former pro-birth programs must now push in the direction of stopping human birth, not encouraging it.

3. All programs promoting War and the technology behind those must cease. There is no sense in advertising weapons of mass-destruction anymore. Instead, talk about ways to disassemble civilization and concentrate the message in finding SOLUTIONS to solving global military mechanized conflict. Again, solutions solutions instead of just repeating the same old wars with newer weapons. Also, keep out the fraudulent peace movements. They are liars and fakes and had no real intention of ending the wars. ALL OF THEM ARE FAKE! On one hand, they claim they want the wars to end, on the other, they are demanding the human population increase. World War II had 2 Billion humans and after that war, the people decided that tripling the population would assure peace. WTF??? STUPIDITY! MORE HUMANS EQUALS MORE WAR!

4. Civilization must be exposed for the filth it is. That, and all its disgusting religious-cultural roots and greed. Broadcast this message until the pollution in the planet is reversed and the human population goes down! This is your obligation. If you think it isn't, then get hell off the planet! Breathe Oil! It is the moral obligation of everyone living otherwise what good are they??

5. Immigration: Programs must be developed to find solutions to stopping ALL immigration pollution and the anchor baby filth that follows that. Find solutions to stopping it. Call for people in the world to develop solutions to stop it completely and permanently. Find solutions FOR these countries so they stop sending their breeding populations to the US and the world to seek jobs and therefore breed more unwanted pollution babies. FIND SOLUTIONS FOR THEM TO STOP THEIR HUMAN GROWTH AND THE EXPORTATION OF THAT DISGUSTING FILTH! (The first world is feeding the population growth of the Third World and those human families are going to where the food is! They must stop procreating new humans looking for nonexistant jobs!)

6. Find solutions for Global Warming, Automotive pollution, International Trade, factory pollution, and the whole blasted human economy. Find ways so that people don't build more housing pollution which destroys the environment to make way for more human filth! Find solutions so that people stop breeding as well as stopping using Oil in order to REVERSE Global warming and the destruction of the planet!

7. Develop shows that mention the Malthusian sciences about how food production leads to the overpopulation of the Human race. Talk about Evolution. Talk about Malthus and Darwin until it sinks into the stupid people's brains until they get it!!

8. Saving the Planet means saving what's left of the non-human Wildlife by decreasing the Human population. That means stopping the human race from breeding any more disgusting human babies! You're the media, you can reach enough people. It's your resposibility because you reach so many minds!!!

9. Develop shows that will correct and dismantle the dangerous US world economy. Find solutions for their disasterous Ponzi-Casino economy before they take the world to another nuclear war.

10. Stop all shows glorifying human birthing on all your channels and on TLC. Stop Future Weapons shows or replace the dialogue condemning the people behind these developments so that the shows become exposes rather than advertisements of Arms sales and development!

11. You're also going to find solutions for unemployment and housing. All these unemployed people makes me think the US is headed toward more war.

Humans are the most destructive, filthy, pollutive creatures around and are wrecking what's left of the planet with their false morals and breeding culture.

For every human born, ACRES of wildlife forests must be turned into farmland in order to feed that new addition over the course of 60 to 100 YEARS of that new human's lifespan! THIS IS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE FOREST CREATURES!!!! All human procreation and farming must cease!

It is the responsiblity of everyone to preserve the planet they live on by not breeding any more children who will continue their filthy practices. Children represent FUTURE catastrophic pollution whereas their parents are current pollution. NO MORE BABIES! Population growth is a real crisis. Even one child born in the US will use 30 to a thousand times more resources than a Third World child. It's like a couple are having 30 babies even though it's just one! If the US goes in this direction maybe other countries will too!

Also, war must be halted. Not because it's morally wrong, but because of the catastrophic environmental damage modern weapons cause to other creatures. FIND SOLUTIONS JUST LIKE THE BOOK SAYS! Humans are supposed to be inventive. INVENT, DAMN YOU!!

The world needs TV shows that DEVELOP solutions to the problems that humans are causing, not stupify the people into destroying the world. Not encouraging them to breed more environmentally harmful humans.

Saving the environment and the remaning species diversity of the planet is now your mindset. Nothing is more important than saving them. The Lions, Tigers, Giraffes, Elephants, Froggies, Turtles, Apes, Raccoons, Beetles, Ants, Sharks, Bears, and, of course, the Squirrels.

The humans? The planet does not need humans.

You MUST KNOW the human population is behind all the pollution and problems in the world, and YET you encourage the exact opposite instead of discouraging human growth and procreation. Surely you MUST ALREADY KNOW this!

I want Discovery Communications to broadcast on their channels to the world their new program lineup and I want proof they are doing so. I want the new shows started by asking the public for inventive solution ideas to save the planet and the remaining wildlife on it.

These are the demands and sayings of Lee.

The idiots at MSNBC got a former hostage negotiator on the line and asked him what he'd be telling the guy...

That he was sorry his previous efforts to bring attention to this very important issue didn't get him the attention he deserved, but now that he has the stage they would make sure that his message would get out to all major media outlets with his name attached and what else id he want to say about his views, etc, vomit...

And that is NOT going to encourage other nut cases to do a copycat and pull a similar stunt? Rhetorical question... IDIOT!

The building is basically on top of a major metro commuter route/transfer point... lotta ppl are going to get home really late tonight.... The whole area is on lockdown. buses, subway routes...

Well, from the hostage negotiator's point of view, his priority is less about future incentives and more about making sure today's hostages make it out alive.

Plus, anyone psychotic enough to do something like this is liable to do it whether there's a past history of being given a fifteen-minute soapbox or not. Guys like this don't think logically or calmly calculate the probability of obtaining the talking rock. If they did, they'd realize that getting up on their soapbox with a gun to somebody else's head isn't exactly likely to win new converts anyway.

True, but he was probably just answering the "What would you do?" question honestly. I doubt anyone listening to his answer is actually more likely to take hostages in the future because of it. Anyone who gets to such an unstable emotional level in the future isn't going to make their decision to go postal or not based on a sober calculation of whether they'll get a soapbox [based on what some hostage negotiator said one day years ago]. I figure that either they're just going to "snap" out of anger and desperation, or they're not.

You do make a point. The allure of a full-blown soapbox might pull a few more glory-seekers over the age. I still lean towards thinking that even being mentioned on the news at all though (inevitable) would be enough for anyone this unstable though, just because they're so far over the edge already to even consider this. You could be right though...

I don't know why people feel the need to call him anything other than "crazy". He isn't a "progressive crazy", a "leftist crazy", or anything similar. He is a crazy ass motherfucker who took Discovery Channel hostage. Those are not the actions of a sane man - left, center, right, up, down, white, black, etc.

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that if this was instead some Ron Paul fan who also happened to be a conspiracy kook, people would be saying the same thing I am right now, trying to distance themselves from him - and for good reason.

None reported, but there are apparently multiple "devices" being dealt with currently. Bomb disposal unit is still at risk and apparently not everyone got out of the building so they are still clearing.

There was a report of one shot being fired at the beginning, but no followup on anyone being hurt from that.

The Discovery channel usually has pretty awesome programing IMO. I love all the survival shows(besides Man vs. Wild), Deadliest Catch is awesome, and I very much love MythBusters and CashCab. Probably their worst show as of late was "The Colony" which just seemed too fake and manufactured to show anything good for situations like that.
