There was the time in 2005 when he went to jail. Now the BLM has come back at him because he didn’t fully surrender his land.
The environmentalist ‘battle’ here has been going on for decades. Dave Forman, who started Earf First, worked on a ranch in this particular county, Catron County, before the locals figured out what he was up to. The same goes for the Center For Biological Diversity. Peter Galvin and Kierian Suckling were living just outside of Luna ‘studying’ owls, and the local ranchers were more than accomodating to let them do suck before figuring out that the forest would soon be closed to timber harvesting and grazing due to new policy’s put in place (under the Clinton’s) in direct response to the ‘biological study’s’. Kierian and Peter received their very first ‘grant’ from Ted Turner and thus the Center for Biological Diversity was born, though it was called something else back then.
To the Gang Greenes, any logging or grazing here is a damnable offense. They truly would like to see the Gila National Forest closed to all humans. Regarding the ‘endangered’ Gila Trout, the FS will bring in helicopters and remove the fish from the creeks (shocking them) if fire or anything else threatens them. Doing such has cost millions of dollars over the past few decades. The FS even went so far as to literally poison all the headwater feeders of the Gila River, after having first removed the Gila Trout, in an attempt to kill all other species of trout (which the FS itself introduced many decades ago) and all other aquatic life being casualties of the poisoning program.
The current head of the Gila National Forest is a lesbian who allowed pretty much the bulk of the forest to burn down a couple of years ago since it is ‘natural’. There was a period of about 2 weeks in which the initial fire could have been put out. It started on the edge of the Shelley ranch and Mr Shelley called it in after having riden up there on his horse (he and I go to the same church). The lesbian had no intention of putting out the fire, since the plan is to return the forest to its ‘natural’ state. This also includes removing all grazing allotment, stopping all timber harvesting, and closing damn near the whole forest to any motorized traffic, even an ATV to remove harvested game. The lesbian in charge successfully DID close the forest of her former post in CA. Now she is tasked to do the same here.
There is a battle brewing over 14,000 acre water feet in the AZ water settlements act, and the proposals of the Interstate Stream Commission. The gang greens want to water to not be touched, whereas sane people have developed plans to capture the water during flood stages only, to be stored and used as needed.
The main idea here, of which Kit Laney is only one casualty of, is to clearly institute the UN agenda 21. There is no doubt remaining. These people are insane and godless. They embrace anything not of God and absolutely disdain Christians. I know, because I have to deal with them on an almost daily basis. Useful idiots, every last one of them.
