>>I dunno John-that sounds like pretty standard "James Watt" style "profits vs wildlife" grousing.

>>I could find nothing in this initiative which would do anything to eliminate hunting, fishing or other sustainable recreational activities, and if that is indeed the case I would be wholeheartedly behind protecting MUCH more land from industrial and agricultural development. I just came back from northern NM, where I greatly enjoyed spending time hiking, birding and fly fishing on our public lands (Carson National Forest, in particular).

Brad,



There are extremists on BOTH sides. But it's readily apparent that the left extremists have no problem disguising their agenda as feel-good programs "for the environment." Look, we all agree we want to protect the environment, wildlife, biodiversity, etc. But am I supposed to have faith in a President and administration that



1)keeps throwing my tax dollars down the toilet?

2)blatantly lies (ie, "health care costs will go down with our plan", then 6 months later, "oh, no health care costs will not go down"



Am I supposed to have faith in the DOI, which created the burmese python hysteria by publishing garbage "research" that a 12 year old snake hobbyist would laugh at?



Fool me once...



Thanks,

Ed
