More like anti-corporate wannabe anarchists. Fanaticism can take some ugly forms.

San Francisco is a city filled with activists of every flavor, and there are fringe elements that like to prove that they are "radicaler-than-thou".

To put the bomb planting in perspective - San Francisco had a strong coffee culture long before Starbuck's made drinking latte a fad. In fact, coffee houses were a gathering place for beatniks, folksingers, artists and other non-mainstream types for decades.

Then along came Starbucks, displacing or forcing out of business, scores of popular local coffee shops. It has gotten to the point that in many cities, Starbucks has to get special permission to open a new store, since they are considered a nuisance or disruptive in some ways by many people.

Many book lovers feel much the same way about Barnes & Noble or Borders, which inevitably lead to the closing of popular (though not paticularly profitable) bookstores when they open in a neighborhood.

Such companies are symbols of captialism at it's worst to those with an anti-corporate bent.

I haven't heard all of the details about the San Francisco bomb - who knows, it could just be a disgruntled employee, but I wanted to add some background as to who might want to do something like that and perhaps why.
