Re: PAGING RIGHT-WINGERS: ANOTHER EXPLANATION NEEDED
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] All right, I'll bite. Anyone who has ever listened to Glenn Beck knows he always complains about the Hollywood crowd; movie stars who live in Malibu. He says that they hate what America is and it should be formed into a socialistic state. Once again, anyone who has ever actually LISTENED to the man would know this. [/ QUOTE ] Ummm, so it's ok to take joy in the fact that some move stars' homes ill burn down? OK! [/ QUOTE ] you got it bud. [/ QUOTE ] Blame the Sierra Club... they are the ones who dont want the dry brush removed.... the stars are likely donating mucho dollars to support those whackies at Sierra, all to put their own homes at risk. [/ QUOTE ] have you EVER said anything that was true? [/ QUOTE ] Are you saying the Sierra Club is known for being in favor of removing brush and disturbing the habitat of various wildlife, or that the Hollywood crowd does not donate a lot of money to the Sierra Club? Or Both? Please explain how I am wrong all the time, or at least in the post you are referring to. [/ QUOTE ] From the Sierra Club website: It's time for the Forest Service to make protecting our communities from fire its number-one mission. ... Communities need three kinds of measures: -- Cut brush and small diameter trees to remove flammable materials in the Community Protection Zone (500 yards around a community), creating a fire break so firefighters can control future fires and keep them away from structures. -- Use controlled burning around communities wherever we can to reduce the dead wood and small brush that fuel large fires. Every dollar spent on prescribed burning saves seven dollars on fighting large fires later. -- Help homeowners protect their homes by removing hazards like brush, small trees and overhanging branches, and moving firewood and other flammable material away from structures. ... It is time to stop pointing fingers and to find common ground. Whatever our differences with the timber industry, the Forest Service and the Bush Administration on other forest management issues, we should all agree that every community at risk deserves protection and that the highest priority is providing protection where it is needed most: in the Community Protection Zones.
