Law enforcement authorities said they were talking to the man, whom they identified as James Jay Lee, 40, a longtime protester at the building who sentenced to six months of supervised probation for disorderly conduct in March 2008.
The good thing is we have the outside of the building secure, were talking with him, and he wants to talk with us, Starks said.
The planet does not need humans
Lee appears to have posted environmental and population-control demands online, saying humans are ruining the planet and that Discovery should develop programs to sound the alarm.
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,
The alleged manifesto reads, adding:
Nothing is more important than saving ... 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.
