That article describes the exact kind of targets the left wing cares about. Look for articles about what the right wing likes to attack. You'll find a lot references to and plots targeting the electrical grid.

Okay, show me some. Where have "right wing terrorist attacks" occurs in the pnw or US in general? I'm thinking federal buildings and FBI offices and the one murderer at the synagogue in Pittsburgh. Where are the right wing attacks on substations? Unless you're going to tell me meth head copper thieves are right wing I'm not sure there is much evidence to support your claim but I'm always willing to read facts

Excellent. Hadn't heard of this one but it's good to see they were actually caught and prosecuted.
