Donna Williams, who as chairwoman of the Grafton Conservation Commission spearheaded the ACEC effort, ...

... said that "the landowners have been good stewards of the land. No one is arguing that." But, she said, "can they continue to be good stewards? Not with the development pressures you have in this region. ...

... In an article for Sanctuary magazine, a publication of the Massachusetts Audubon Society, for which she works, Williams castigates "property rights zealots."

On the subject of seeking ACEC designations, she advises against bringing elected officials into the nomination process, because they will "fold up like paper parasols on grapefruits when buffeted by a political breeze. You need only 10 nominators. Use committed environmentalists with strong spines."

More of the UN Agenda 21 boilerplate in action -- since 1975.

"Massachusetts officials say the program is mostly about educating people about precious resources in the state, not slowing development."

BY, If the "state" is to control property, the "state" should own AND pay taxes on that property. JUST as the private property owner HAS to pay taxes. Peace and love, George.

Yep!! As I have found, it's not just Coho Salmon; suckerfish; Klamath Lake; Grand Escalante; et al ad nauseum -- the eco-terrorists have as much to do with conservation as the Grinch does to Christmas.

Let us know what you find.

Tom Casale hasn't actually seen a ringed boghaunter dragonfly lately. But if he did, he'd probably swat it dead.

Just a friendly ping, you eco-terrorist. :-)

Property Rights is not just a Western Problem.

Meebe not. But us westerners get to wear spurs, gunbelts, guns, chew, spit, smoke and say f * ( k.

You guys from the east take ten pages to get to the same conclusion.

"Let the people have property, and they will have power — a power that will forever be exerted to prevent the restriction of the press, the abolition of trial by jury, or the abridgement of any other privilege."

--Noah Webster

Guess you can see why property rights are under attack. If freedom loving individuals have power, the communists can't finish off the United States. And they are getting so close they are starting to salivate.

Thanks for the post! Wonder how many people in this latest Eco Terrorist target area of private property are card carrying members of these enviral groups and up to this moment have pictured the envirals as heros!

There is a key phrase that the enviral nazis and their buds, the maggots in the left wing media use. Whenever we hear this phrase, we should think of the first real enviralist, Adolf Hitler and how he want to make Rural Germany free of evil people and cram the evil Volks into the cities! The current enviralist want to do the same to all Americans exept the Druid elite of the eco terrorists!

That phrase is the innocent sounding "War on sprawl!"

This article had this statement: "has become another flashpoint in the war on sprawl, as environmentalists seek to protect undeveloped land and landowners raise constitutional objections based on property rights.

Decoding these enviral words. Sprawl means human and beings wanting to live in a good area and not crammed into a Goron inner city, thousands /acre.

When we read War on Sprawl, we need to know that is eco terrorism code for war on humans living in areas where they don't want us to live. We are the Sprawl, that they hate!

es posted, "can they continue to be good stewards? Not with the development pressures you have in this region. We can't be certain of the future. It's necessary to have this kind of review to protect these resources."

Then you posted "Elitist B!tch!"

Actually, she is typical of the EcoTerrorist Enviral Elitist Nazi/Facist who hate American Property owners! So this might be a better description:

EcoTerrorist Enviral Elitist Nazi/Facist B$tch! (The $ sign replacing the i, is both for the moderators and the reality of what these envirals depend on for power $'s!)

"Massachusetts officials say the program is mostly about educating people about precious resources in the state, not slowing development."

B.S.

We all know what dragon flies eat: mosquitoes. - If the supply of mosquitoes dwindles (as it must) then the dragon fly population must also dwindle.
