Isn’t that what muslims do when they take over an area...destroy national monuments and treasured symbols?
*FACEPALM* EVEN WINDMILLS AREN’T SAFE FROM THE ENVIRO-ANIMAL LOVING HIPPIE FILTH!!!!
Selective Greenies. If the green goes in their friends pockets, they would sell their mothers!
Uh-huh. You can be prosecuted for merely disturbing an eagle, but if you use a wind-turbine, you can kill them with impunity.
Remind me of the more environmentally friendly form of energy generation, someone? Because I’m not seeing it with these policies.
And DDT, something actually useful to the world, remains banned.
It’s called “selective enforcement of the law.”
It’s what fascists always do.
I say knock down all of those ugly windmills.
Save the Eagles!
Environmentalism killing our national symbol and getting a pass for it. Oh, the irony. Not really. If these idiots did some actual science maybe they would discover these damn windmills are being built in the birds hunting grounds and flight paths.
All for a rotating piece of environmental piousness that adds virtually nothing to base load capacity.
Other birds killed number in the millions - same for bats.
The obama rule is written in stone: Law for thee, but not for me.
Dams killing fish? Bad. Bad. Very Bad. Tear them down!
Windmills killing birds? Good. Good. Very good. Must have more!
Never mind that dams produce clean, steady, economical energy and as a side benefit produce abundant recreational opportunities.
Windmills, on the other hand, produce insanely expensive, unreliable energy that must be backed up by gas-turbine generation capacity. And as a side benefit are a blight on the landscape and turns once pristine regions into wastelands of infrasonic poison.
Meanwhile, if your bar has a 50-year old stuffed wolverine on the wall, or you keep an eagle feather handed down more than 100 years ago, you will feel the infinite wrath of the government.
Jefferson was right: Government is not about reason; it is about force.
Is this from the same government that will prosecute you if you happen to pick up an eagle feather on a walk?
How long can a nation exist once its laws become overbearing and capricious at the same time.
Either Eagles need protection or they don’t. Take them off the endanger species list and repeal the law against killing them. But don’t selectively prosecute some while allowing others to kill them.
Was there an environmental impact statement for this request? Wind farms are not economically viable without heavy government subsidies. They are ugly (aesthetic pollution), inefficient, and killers of eagles, bats, and other birds. They do NOT provide energy 24/7; they do NOT provide a steady stream of power, but varies according to how much wind is blowing. Sometimes the expensive and ugly behemoth is upturned by a hurricane or tornado.
The government should, instead, spend their money making coal environmentally friendly. Success in this area would preserve our coal reserves, provide for energy 24/7 regardless of weather conditions.
What happened that we are doing wind farms? How much money have we wasted?
Yet if a citizen did this they would be in jail.
This is a CIMINAL GOVERNMENT, and that is no exaggeration.
