This REALLY pisses me off! The enviro-wackos want the earth to return to its “natural state”, i.e., NO human development. This is earth worship, not caring for the earth.

I bet when they were told the government would never kick them out when the park was established 50 years ago, they believed it.

In its closing the Obama administration cited that imperialists were responsible 100 years ago for colonizing the oyster beds.

Obama wants us to be some third-world dictator’s best oyster customer.

How can someone be environmentally conscience and ship product from local environs when those environs are being closed down?

This is up in Marin County. I wonder if the county residents are having second thoughts about voting for Obama.

The farm produced 40% of California oysters.

Expect the price of oysters to skyrocket just like ammo and corn products which he's been meddling in.

“Killing capitalism one business at a time.”

If one conducts their business on public land, they are not capitalists, but rather victims of American Socialism for the last 100 years.

This will continue as long as we ALLOW it. There comes a time when people say enough is enough and resist this bullsh!t.

If it boils down to violent resistance, then so be it. Which it will, eventually.

“I weep for you,” Obama said. “I deeply sympathize.”
And with sobs and tears he sorted out those of larger size,
holding his pocket hanker-chief before his streaming eyes.
