And may we ask Dr. Robin Silver of the oh-so pompous Center for Biological Diversity what, pray tell, is the difference between the frickin' "Mount Graham red squirrel" and the frickin' "Kitt Peak red squirrel", who lives next door?
Who would you trust? Our firefighters are dying
to appease leftist so-called enviromentalists with a very poor history of telling the truth.
Forest rangers know their trees. Let the pros protect the forests...and thus the wildlife within. It's time to stop appeasing the legal/enviro-terrorists and toss 'em in jail for the deadly, expensive and deceptive fearmongering.
"Hey Grandpa, what's for supper?"
"Squirrels Jubilee"
"Yum yum!"
Never mind that, what I want to know is where these lefties think the tree rats will "live" if the damn forest burns!
Do these morons ever think anything through? They want to maintain a firetrap condition, pretty much guaranteed to go up in flames at some point (probably soon, given the weather conditions), because if the deadwood was trimmed out, the tree rats might not like it?
I'd think the tree rats would like having the deadwood removed a hell of a lot better than they'd like being roasted alive!
But what do I know?
These environmental idiots successfully challenged a building development here in San Diego, where we are desperate for housing, and all because of a tiny butterfly. It seems the butterfly was native to this habitat and was "endangered".My suggestion was to take the butterfly and give it to the San Diego Zoo - where everyone could enjoy it in the butterfly exhibit.
Instead, they have kept homes from being built which were needed. It's so stupid!
It's not about saving insects. It's about preventing development. It's about hampering human endeavor. It's luddism, basically.
Gail Aschenbrenner, a Forest Service spokeswoman:
"It's not a huge project," she said, "but I think it will do a lot to reduce the risk without doing any thinning or tree cutting."
Another enviral Druid Nun playing forester at our expenses while pushing the Druid agenda of no new roads, no thinning or tree cutting.
>This typical of the lies and warped so called science of the Enviral Nazis from Hell:
The endangered Mount Graham red squirrel had been seen in the past in the area being pruned and cleaned. But the animal is not known to live there now, probably because the forest has been decimated by an insect infestation, according to a Forest Service memo authorizing the work.
This rodent, cousin to a rat, doesn't even live there. In fact the Druid Agenda of not clearing the forest has decimated the forest do to an insect infestation.
However, this rat cousin might want to come back some day.
Their real goals were to have nature or one of their arsonists start a fire and burn up these ugly telescopes that vile/evil man put on the top of this Druid Cathedral.
How would you like to work in the midst of a high desert tinder box like this situation created by the Enviral Nazis from Hell?
Sounds like they are abondoning the 'native-American' style of forest management. Good.
because environmentalist wackos, who think they know best how to take care of Mother Nature, have, instead, ruined Mother Nature's environment.
Not me. Good points here Dave, thanks for the ping.
