And they kill vast numbers of hawks, eagles, vultures and bats, plus many other protected species. Where are the greenies that always cry about the “environment”?
Don't forget the Whales.
Yes. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds. The stopped almost all logging in Oregon to save the Spotted Owl, but they don’t care one bit for the millions of raptors, bats, and insects killed by those infernal machines.
I moved to California from Missouri in 1973 after I graduated from college. One of the big environmental concerns in the 1960s through 1970s was the visual pollution from a handful of offshore oil platforms (and oil blowouts like in Santa Barbara). But nary of peep from the same people about the visual blight of hundreds of miles of the ocean off our coasts. Not one complaint that I’ve heard.
Damn hypocrites thoroughly disgust me. I wish people in Congress would wake up to these facts.
