Manage forests for all, etc.

September 14, 2017 by Guest Post

To start I want to thank the following people. Jerry Haslip for his intelligent response to Obama is a Muslim, Dallas Erickson for being right – we do need to manage our forests, and Gary Taggart for a very thoughtful and honest letter explaining the service you all did for the community. Frank Novotny, I liked your response to socialist Tucker.

In times past people looked out for the environment instead of what we have now, which is self-serving liberals that have an agenda that is destroying our forests. We must stop the senseless lawsuits that the left bring to our courts. They are designed to hinder any progress in the care and maintenance of our beautiful God-given land.

Because our forests have not been logged the overgrowth and undergrowth have choked out good growth, chasing away many species of animals that can no longer live there. Those that remain have been burned alive along with the forest because we have not maintained a healthy environment. The only thing injunctions have done is burn all our renewable resources, and killed the varied animals the libs say they want to save. It has also caused our air to be rancid with smoke. Oh, right – the libs don’t want smoke in the air. So libs, just what have you accomplished? Right! Destroying forests, killing animals, giving us unhealthy air–the very thing you say you don’t want! Our children and grandchildren deserve a chance at erosion-free lands, not what you claim you are leaving them.

To Mr. Corn, my wife is correct in her assessment of you, so much bitterness and blindness toward our country and President on your part.

We pray every day that eyes will be opened and this country healed.
