Thirdly, you dont like property rights? What if you owned a bunch of restraunts that served meat and a anti-meat protestor kept barging into your restraunts yelling at customers or sitting on tables or blocking employees so they couldnt do their job. You think that person should have the right to do that forever?

She probably was being a bit annoying but you can't compare meat to fracking. Fracking has very serious, long term effects which are seemingly ignored by gas companies even though such are proven to have such bad impacts on man and nature. I don't see how anyone could have the right to frack on their own property as the contamination from fracking chemicals will spread beyond said property.  Unfortunately, as long as it's profitable, companies like Cabot won't care. I just find it reckless to make money knowing you are doing so from such enviromentally destructive practices.

Badgenome proves she is a bit of a crazy freak but i'm only concerned for protecting the environment and constitutional rights. It seems whoever has more money wins every time. 

Also, something like fracking has wide health risks on people who happen to live near these sites. What about their rights? 

Ah, so this is actually an anti fracking thread and not actually about what happened in your article?  You should probably revise your op then...
