But I thought your state will not allow drilling for oil or natural gas. Seems you're in a Cath-22 situation... Maybe I'm wrong.
People have been burning in that valley for over a hundred years without complaint. It is a necessary process for weed control and crop preparation among other things. As I also suggested, NOT burning has its own environmental consequences including air quality problems due to molds. Are you prepared to compensate the farmer who was there long before you for the costs associated with other methods of weed control? They're bloody expensive.
So, if you don't like it, why did you move there?
And banning cigs in "private" homes isn't next?
Random patrols....No, officer, we were smoking a big cig, not burning a log.
It may well take all 8 tiny reindeer to extract the still smoldering wood from his ...
So, if you don't like it, why did you move there?
And if you don't like it, you should vote to end immigration.
Because it is ultimately population bloat from immigration that is pushing people out of their old neighborhoods and into yours.
The ensuing crowding will change your way of life and restrict your freedom.
The polyester suit of home decor.
I have an SB60 referendum petition, do you?
Because it is ultimately population bloat from immigration that is pushing people out of their old neighborhoods and into yours.
Um, I don't live in the Central Valley. I'm just tired of city folk ruining farms, forests, and ranches because of their stupidly destructive whims. The people of Stockton never complained about the smell of peat when I was a kid because they knew it was necessary. It's a cultural problem, not just a matter of population.
And that referendum seeks to halt population bloat from LEGAL immigration?

The only "cultural" problem is the belief that LEGAL immigration is perpetually wonderful.
The more people living in your house, the more rules governing who gets to use the bathroom and when.
Is that "cultural"?
Obviously not. If you don't have, haven't requested, or haven't signed one, you have no complaint.
The only "cultural" problem is the belief that LEGAL immigration is perpetually wonderful.
We would need some or else the country's population would drop. I don't think you would like to see the economic implosion that would come with it until we can the Federill Reserve.
Let it drop.
Illegal immigration is a sideshow.
Legal immigration is the real problem.
If I can't beat them, I will join them.
I will do what your brainwashers are doing: they realize the sheeple will never wise up.
So they make the best of a bad situation by profitting as much they can from the way things are, so that they will always be among the DIMINISHING few who are able to buy more freedom for themselves.
They fancy, with some justification, that should their neighborhoods become too crowded, they can always afford to buy a nice expanse of prime, empty real estate to enjoy in private.
While the rest of the suckers, who welcomed immigrants because they were brainwashed into it, live in high-rise human anthills, and blame other people for having "foolish" thoughts and forcing "wasteful" and "unreasonable" regulations governing how to share the resources of the human anthill.
