Obama to publicly name San Gabriel Mountains a national monument today (Oct 10 2014)
Los Angeles Times ^ | Oct 10 2014 | Louis Sahagun

residents within and near the monument's footprint, say they've been kept in the dark about the effects of the designation, and fear that the new status will hamper growth and fire safety. (A)bout 150 people protested Monday in front of the Pasadena office of Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park). Many said they were unsure about its potential effects on private property rights, flood control and emergency services.

And the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors recently approved a resolution opposing a monument designation in its region, where there has not been a public meeting held to discuss the issues.

Unless the land in question was purchased by the feds under the terms of the Constitution’s Clause 17 of Section 8 of Arcticle I, or the 5th Amendment’s eminent domain clause, Obama’s monument project is constitutionally indefensible imo.

Why didn’t Obama at least wait until after the elections to announce this unconstitutonal project?

The damage this tyrant is causing America is incalculable. All the conservatives who sat home in 2012 are now reaping what they sowed.

‘The rugged slopes and canyons are home to rare and endangered species, including Nelson’s bighorn sheep, mountain yellow-legged frogs and Santa Ana suckers.’

‘Santa Ana Suckers’?

I wonder what sort of an endangered species that could be?

I bet that 0bama is doing this official act so that we taxpayers can pay for his fundraising trip to Beverly Hills. The last time he was in LA he gave a speech at a trade school the morning after his Brentwood fundraisers which allowed him to bilk the taxpayers for his fundraising trip.

This affects much more than the people in the immediate area. More of the West’s public lands are being made off limits to the “little people.”

Agenda 21. And no, it’s not going to get better with the next president.

I know, and appreciate that.

But pretty soon, the jerks that voted for the jerk have to suffer before they get their heads out of their ....’s.

It is a good thing that schadenfreude isn’t fattening.

First they go after the San Gabriel Gun Club (where my grandfather taught me to shoot back in the 1970’s while playing hooky from church on Sundays) and now the Burro Canyon Shooting Park. I don’t live in SoCal anymore, but this makes me very sad.

And just like that. A cell phone and a pen is all it takes.

A few more legacy hungry democrat presidents and the entire land mass of the USA will be a national monument
closed to everyone except politicians and their wealthy friends.
