Does Klamath basin ring a bell? They WILL tell you what's best for you whether it is or not. Good luck to Andy and his family in Wyoming. When (if ever) is some local sheriff going to arrest these clowns? Denial of a new MRAP for their local office keeping them from acting? As far as I can recall, he/she is the top law enforcement person in the/a county and can deny access to these clowns.

A recruiting ad for the National Guard ran on KFI for a couple weeks.

Main thrust of the pitch was helping in case of disasters.

BUT one very scary line about what the NG will be doing...”protect the wetlands”

Protecting them from who? The property owners?

Evidently these clowns never took Physics 101:

ACTION PRODUCES REACTION, equal and opposing

Private property rights...we no longer haz them.

The EPA is perhaps the most corrupt and power-drunk agency in the world. Shameless, cowardly, traitorous and un-American. May they rot in hell, one and all.

Indeed, can’t the state and local officials do something about this?

What the link doesn't elaborate on is that the family had a permit to build the 'stock pond' from the State of Wyoming, not just 'followed the rules'.

What no one I've seen asking is:

How did the EPA find out about this?

[I want the USA back]

They are clever. The end goal is complete takeover of private property. They can’t do that just now, so they take a little here a little there. The property tax confiscates a percentage each year, they take over bodies of water by declaring them wetlands, they destroy your privacy by flying drones overhead.

I have 3 ponds on my place. Two were built by the MUD to aid in flood control.

If the EPA wants to control mine, I will breach the dams and let the down stream deal with it.

Why not publicize the names of the EPA officials that are directly involved with this idiocy? These government dictators are making policy with no personal repercussions. If their names were exposed to the public, they would have to be more responsible with their decisions because public attitude towards them would be affected. These public officials need to have their families affected by their decisions and uncaring actions.
