"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
But yet these globalist congresscreeps say nothing about Mexican Drug cartels growing thousands of acres of dope in our national forests and parks....many of them designated ‘wilderness’ areas where US citizens are not allowed and it is absolutely destroying the habitat.

Western Oregon is already on taxpayers dole, called the “safety net” to the tune of $50,000,000 a year because they discovered the spotted owl and played politics with human lives. Our county of a little over 100,000 people has the highest unemployment in the nation per capita, from loggers losing their jobs to hundreds of mills shutting down. One judge in 1990 said the spotted owl is endangered and all public land production of Oregon’s number one resource stopped.
That is what Oregon produces, timber, and yet the facts are in that spotted owl live in bridges and brand new forest. Our timber, Douglas Fir, do best when logged in clear cut strips. We call them the wildlife enhancement strips, the deer and Elk come from miles around to eat the fresh grasses that grow in the newly logged area. New trees are then replanted and in 20 to 30 years can be harvested again.
In my county, Douglas county, we have the most productive timber lands in the nation, according to a county commissioner, yet congressmen who live in NY and probably have never been to Oregon or seen a vibrant managed forest are making more laws to shut us down?
Before 1990, one mill in our county, and we had hundreds, sent 12 million a year in taxes to the federal government. Now we have to have the feds send $50 million a year to us, just to keep our police on the street and the schools open.
