False. Issuing warnings and avoiding deaths was the group's policy from the beginning.

So, by your logic, if Timothy McVeigh had made a conscience choice to avoid injury or death of people by issuing a warning and exploding the bomb at night, it would have been OK. Nothing serious since no one got hurt. Is that your position?
It would still have been wrong, but not nearly as bad. McVeigh was a mass murderer. Ayers is not. That doesn't make what he did "OK," but it does make it not nearly as bad as it's being made out to be on this forum by you and others.
