Thanks again Dave. The Al Queda spotted owl nazis are burning up the Umpqua. Tiller fire has socked in the basin & blackening Zane Grey's stomping grounds.

Biscuit website has it at 448,857 acres and 40% contained around noon today.

I love it, the al Qaeda Spotted Owl Nazis.
They are leaving their legacy of burn baby burn with the sane people in Oregon.
The insane ones are still praising them, hugging trees and condemning any logging including logging of dead trees. Trees killed by their agenda.
They will get really squirrely with their letters to the editors, Green Terrorist articles and editorials. Which is good. Every vile and lying word out of their mouth is like the "Scream of let them eat Cake!" We know how well that was remembered.

>here's a current photo of downtown Salt Lake City, Utah... under fair skies...this is Oregon smoke!Gen 19:27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.

God bless those people, and I pray that their land and homes are safe, as well as themselves.
The western fires are just another testiment to the failure thinking of the radical socialist. The "greens" want the lands returned to nature, the capitalists want the timber protected by a timber industry that watches over it's "crop", and provides timber products for homes and businesses. The "greens" would have the fires burn, but the loggers and timbermen would care for the forrest that is their crop, their livelyhood, and would never let this type of disaster occur in the first place. Sure, forrest fires will always happen, but with the proper management, they can be contained quickly and effectively. I can't believe we have this kind of inferno that could have been prevented by loggers, and timbermen.
There's 50,000 potential homes gone to ash because we have people that don't understand why man was put on this earth. There is ash that could have made furniture, woodwork, barns, feed sheds, all of the things that we need, as a productive people. Now it's just so much burned up ash. It's not about hugging the tree, it's about making something out of it.

NEWS ALERT: OAK FLAT EVACUATION LIFTED
Published: August 19, 2002
The evacuation order for about 30 homes in the Oak Flat area near Agness has been lifted by Curry County Sheriff Kent Owens.
The order has been in effect since late last week. The decision was based on fire activity in the past 24 hours, and the predictions for both weather and fire conditions over the next several days.
The homes in the area remain under a pre-evacuation alert, like those still in effect for the entire Agness area, a few home in the Upper Pistol River drainage, and the Wildereness Retreat area along the Chetco River.

This is the smokey sky at 7:30 P.M., (still daylight, blue sky peeks through here and there) from Grants Pass looking towards the Agness area of the fire.

As usual, you have a firm grasp on the reality of what liberals, terrorists and in this case the eco terrorists do to America/Americans.
Oregon is their laboratory test state. The Watermelon Green Jihadists control the forests, the timber and the water in Oregon. They restrict business, block logging of even dead trees and have driven out many businesses in the past few years.
They hate people and will not allow the use of God Resources to benefit mankind. They will not even allow the logging a tree that is dead due to their Good Fire Agendas.
Thanks to their anti job/capitalism/human agendas, Oregon is #1 in two terrible stats:
1. Oregon has the highest unemployment rate in the nation as a result of the Economic Terrorist Agendas of the Green Jehadists.
2. Oregon has a higher % of people going hungry everyday because of #1.
Their preference of trees/critters/sucker fish over humans is one of the worse anti-human agendas outside of the communist countries like Cuba, N. Korea and Communist China. Now the people of Oregon are paying for allowing these eco criminals to seize power over their lives.
Well, what can you expect from Watermelons acting like they love the trees, critters and sucker fish over humans?
The tree hugging al Queda Eco Thugs/terrorists can kill and ruin lives if given the power to do so. They have that power in Oregon.

"Oregon is Still Burning, can be the title to this thread until the rains come this fall." Will there still be any Oregon in the fall?
This burn'em out agenda is proceeding much faster than I ever imagined it would. - Soon it will be time to drop the buckets and pick up the bullets.
To: editor-surveyor
Time to use the ballots first and get the few conservative lawyers taking these Green Jihadists and their financial donors to court for enabling these destructive fires.
To: Grampa Dave
Dave,I used to believe that ballots might work, until I saw what the media is doing to Bill Simon. - We have no chance of victory here in California; most people dig no deeper than the front page headlines.
Even here on FR, which is supposed to be informed, intelligent people, what do we have? - There aren't more than 20 of us that even care!
To: editor-surveyor
Soon it will be time to drop the buckets and pick up the bullets.My yard will still be mine when this is all over.

"My yard will still be mine when this is all over." But will it be nothing but tall black spires surrounded by gray dust?

The maps give a good perspective.
Outrageous. All of that wood just
wasted.
Habitat for Humanity could've used those trees and their wood to forward the
agenda program and promote their
Global Village yet they wont say a thing!
Jimmah Carter should do something!
(you think I should put the /sarcasm JIC some don't "get it"?)
To: philman_36
How many here do you think do get it?
