DEPEOPLING
AMERICA by Jim Beers
8/19/05
There is no greater example of the mortal dangers posed by
the environmental extremists and animal rights radicals in our midst than the
following front-page article in the 18 August 2005 Washington Times.
The years of dumbing-down our children and desensitizing us
to the value of human life and the steady eradication of the liberties,
freedoms, and rights that were the hallmark of this great nation have come down
to this. This next step in the dehumanizing and paganizing of American society
should serve as a wake-up call to all Americans. Unless and until we understand
what is occurring, we cannot begin to take the increasingly radical
countermeasures necessary to offset this increasingly evil and injurious agenda
growing all around us. I believe that after you read this, your blood will boil
as mine has ever since I read this article this morning. It is so deeply
disappointing that the newspaper treats this not only non-judgmentally, but
also in a humorous and even frivolous manner. This is a truly deadly serious
matter and one that clearly indicates the revolutionary transformation
throughout this nation that must be stopped. I will quote from the article
sequentially with comments on each quote and a summary at the end.
1.)TITLE:
LIONS ON THE PLAINS WOULD ALTER ORDER OF THE FOOD CHAIN
Rewilding of Mid-AmericaComment:
Lions loose anywhere in the US would cause catastrophic impacts. Altering the
order of the food chain
would not even be on the screen with the deaths, injuries,
and property loss and destruction they would wreak.
2.) DENVERLions in your back yard?
Elephants in the driveway? Cheetahs on the terrace?
Comment:
Think hard about this. They really mean it. We accepted
wolves destroying families, ranches, hunting, etc. and we have looked away as
cougars and bears kill and maim in our towns and cities and we have smirked at
hunting as a control on the numbers and distribution of predators and we have
outlawed dogs and traps to take predators.
Now comes the next step that these radicals always knew
would come and that none of us would accept as possible. Like the fate of
western ranchers or elk hunters destroyed by wolves, these power-brokers depend
on urbanites and the well-to-do to smile and think how cool that
would be and how they could enjoy it without being near it (for awhile at
least). The annual loss of human life, human injuries and property destruction
in Africa to elephants and crocodiles and lions and leopards and other
dangerous animals is startling and never spoken. To propose transferring that
to the US, like fostering its continuation in Africa (through UN
policies) is not only tragic, it is unconscionable.
3.) Josh Donlan, a graduate student at Cornell
University and one of the plans co-authors, concedes that skeptics may
worry more about the people on the Great Plains who could become extinct at the
mercy of the lions.
Comment:
Cornell University - one of the secret partners
of the secret US Fish and Wildlife Service operations for nearly
two years to get money and set the stage for massive land control in the
southern US for (an?) Ivory-billed Woodpecker whose existence or origin cannot
and was not and is not verified as this is written.
How cute, he concedes that skeptics may worry more
about the people on the Great Plains who could become extinct at the mercy of
the lions. Reread that, think of what he is dismissing in so cavalier a
tone. This is the drivel that drives the UN, US federal, and increasingly state
bureaucrats.
This is what the US politicians increasingly support with
our tax dollars and the Universities enable with their lies and propaganda
(todays misnamed sound science).
This is pagan animal worship that equates each of us to any
animal and is a means of placing our sovereignty and freedom in the hands of
dictatorships every bit as callous and self-serving as the worst in history.
4.) Obviously, gaining public acceptance is going to
be a huge issue, especially when you talk about reintroducing predators. There
are going to have to be some major attitude shifts. That includes realizing
predation is a natural role, and that people are going to have to take
precautions.
Comment:
Again read that carefully. Not just your steer or your sheep
or your golden retriever: your child, your mother, your grandfather, your wife
- all are fair game to offer up on the altar to the deity called here the
natural role.
5.) Nevertheless, the scientists say the relocated
animals could restore biodiversity on this continent to a condition closer to
what nature was like before humans overran the landscape.
Comment:
If relocated animals could restore biodiversity
how come every professor, bureaucrat, politician, and radical (as my dear
mother used to quip) from hell to breakfast has been wailing and
gnashing their teeth for years about INVASIVE SPECIES? (They admit some of
these species NEVER occurred in North America.)
I thought all Invasive Species DECREASED BIODIVERSITY (so
say the news releases, propaganda, and studies)? Isnt our
Native Ecosystem was
a fixed and sacred thing?
If the elites can just bring whatever they want and release
them, how does that differ from introducing fish and birds and plants we want
and use?
Before humans overran the landscape? What
self-hate and self-loathing for humanity is contained in that statement. But,
of course, they dont think of themselves in that context.
You and I will be forced from our land but they
(the bureaucrats and enviro radicals and professors) will live there and appear
on the nature programs in khakis and wide-brimmed hats. What is good for the
gooses (bureaucrats, professors, enviro-radicals) is obviously not good for the
ganders (hunters, ranchers, farmers, hikers, off-roaders pet owners, fishermen,
loggers, campers the list goes--on and on. )
6.) The idea of rewilding the Great Plains
grew from a retreat at Ladder Ranch near Truth or Consequences, N.M., a
155,550-acre spread owned by media mogul and conservationist Ted Turner.
Comment:
Mr. Turner is synonymous with the UN. His record of using
illegal fences on his properties and offering expensive hunting opportunities
while working with federal bureaucrats to implement things like wolf programs
that decimate hunting opportunities for middle-class Americans on public lands
is legend.
State government acquiescence to him and his power and his
employees is also legend. The fact that high mortality of women and kids in
Africa from unmanaged elephants and crocodiles and hippos and lions could be
duplicated in the US poses no threat to the Turners of the world and their
minions from Washington to the Statehouses.
I am not one of his minions nor should you be.
7.) While most modern African species never
lived on the American prairie, the scientists believe that todays animals
could duplicate the natural roles played by their departed, even larger
cousinsmastodons, camels and saber-toothed catsthat roamed for more
than 1 million years alongside antelope and bison.
Comment:
Q.When is something an invasive species?
A.When those in charge say so.
Earth to every one of you bozos (I apologize for the
personal invective but 35 years of obsequiousness got us here and the time for
digging in our heels is long past) involved in this madness.
Todays animals and todays
natural roles in the United States of America are what each state
government and the voters who put them there say it will be.
Cornfields, woodlots, towns, families, hunting, fishing,
scout troops, gardens et al are what we have built and wherein we live. Your
arrogant notions and pernicious plans are every bit as repugnant as anything
that Hitler or Stalin ever came up with. Your view of other humans, be they
African children or rural Americans, differs from Hitlers race policies
only in the magnitude of the death rates and property loss you so blithely
propose.
The difference between starving millions in the Ukraine
(Stalin in the early 30s) or working people to death in Siberian Gulags
and releasing animals to trample, kill, and maim is again only one of immediate
magnitude. How can this be reported so nonchalantly?
8.) Relocating large animals to vast ecological parks
and private reserves over the next century would begin to restore the balance
and offer new ecotourism opportunities.
Comment:
There is no such thing as balance.
It never existed, it cannot exist, and it cannot be restored.
Every environment has been in a state of constant change
from the beginning of time. Ask yourself how these introduced invasive
species can create balance but the species that arrived here
in the past 200 years only wreak havoc?
Ecotourism?
Ask the ruined logger-families and communities in spotted
owl country about ecotourism. Ask the rural Arkansas restaurants
selling T-shirts in Ivory-bill country. Look to Africa where this
ecotourism shift is cause for worry about losing their ecotourists.
The best thing that could happen to Africa and Africans is
the same thing that the constantly-vilified Europeans did to North
Americacleared the land, rearranged the plants and animals, planted crops
and families and communities and businesses and guaranteed rights and freedoms
FOR ALL under a truly elected government with defined and limited
responsibilities and competing branches of government. All of this, by the way,
is exactly what Ted Turner, the UN, and this gang of bozos intend to crush with
their socialist agendas.
9.) Some ecologists said it is important to try
such a bold plan. Otherwise, they said, hundreds more species are likely to go
extinct in coming decades and entire ecosystemssuch as
grasslandswill fundamentally change.
Comment:
Ecologists live in a bizarre world with no boundaries. They
have become the fringe element of the study of biology. Biology has become an
art (as opposed a science) when compared to chemistry and physics where true
rules exist, are studied, and result in real ( as
opposed contrived) consequences.
That hundreds of species going extinct stuff
worked 35 years ago in the environmental stampede for legislation when Nixon
was President. If it works again after the history of the past 35 years, we
will have proved Abraham Lincoln a fool as this would show you can fool
all of the people all of the time.
Grasslands changed during the Ice Age when Asians arrived,
when Europeans arrived, when dust storms and drought and locusts arrived and
ravaged the Great Plains in the 30s, when fires roared unchecked, when
the price of beef went up or down and soybeans become valuable for more than
fertilizer.
All of this changed Americas grasslands. And we all
adapted and benefited from this by our ability to change and move and respond.
It is exactly this freedom this gang of elitist radicals proposes to take away
Americas people with total disregard for our Constitution and the
sacrifices and blood of men infinitely better and greater and smarter than they
should ever hope to be.
They are, simply modern day Caligulas experimenting
with humans.
10.) Other conservationists say the plan would
further damage the prospects of African species on their native turf, as well
as that continents hopes for sustainable economic development.
Comment:
Once again a lie that is exactly 180 degrees out from the
truth. Possibly the only good that would come from this madness is that
Africans would be forced to rethink their peonage to the UN, Western
do-gooders, and radical organizations. If they but come to realize that
sustainable economic development is exactly what the US has had for
225+ years because we did exactly the opposite of this
no-management/no-use/nature worship BS; then by golly good for the Africans and
I can only wish them well and offer them help in achieving what we have (minus
this idiocy and the attendant cultural decline).
11.) The extent of Mr. Turners interest
in the larger rewilding plan is not clear. Mike Phillips, who directs the
Turner Endangered Species Fund, was unavailable for comment.
Comment:
And the reason is: this is a trial balloon. If it bombs, Ted
and his gang do a double arabesque and exit stage right to come back on in a
later version, like reeducation camps for rural Americans that do not sell to
him or TNC or the government and move into a city and sell their vehicles and
only take public transportation or ride a bicycle between their jobs and their
apartment.
12.) The renewed presence of many large mammals
might turn back the ecological clock in a variety of subtle ways. For example,
elephants eat woody plants that have overtaken grasslands. Could they act as
Rototillers to restore the prairie?
Comment:
Is there anyone out there who does not see the immediate
absurdity and propaganda nonsense nature of this paltry attempt at humor? If
so, e-mail me and I will explain it to you.
13.) Lastly, our Cornell graduate student leaves us
with these brilliant closing lines: Lions would be a harder sell,
particularly to the elk herds that already live there. Lions eat
people, Mr. Donlan, the Cornell graduate student, says. There has
to be a pretty serious attitude shift on how you view predators.
Comment:
A.) For the uninitiated, there are very few elk on the Great
Plains. And we dont sell them, we shoot and eat them.
B.) If a Cornell person can speak a truism (Lions eat
people) there must be some old holdover professor from before the
Universities as ladies-of -the-evening epoch began. They better
find him or her and get rid of them quick. There is no telling where this could
lead.
C.) Mr. Donlan is very mistaken and very misleading. It is
not our view of predators that must be shifted; it is our VIEW OF MAN that must
be shifted and for that relying on the Ted Turners and Cornells and the UN and
federal bureaucrats and enviro-radicals is like relying on fortune tellers for
theological guidance.
SUMMARY
Its all here. No states role. They and the
Constitution are swept aside for the federal and UN bureaucracies and the
radicals that underpin such programs today. These programs include:
·
Invasive Species
whining of the last decade and all the Federal legislative proposals from both
the Clinton and Bush bureaucrats about Invasive Species are shown
to be the hollow lies by elites that many of us always said they were.
·
Callous disregard for human life that began with wolves and then bears and
mountain lions has always underpinned this whole pagan nature worship
philosophy masquerading as some sort of biology is now there for
all to see. It is and always has been about using government to
generate power, money, and destruction of the US as we have known it.
· Elites fronted for by
ecologists and a long litany of fellow travelers implementing a
radical socialist agenda on the citizens of this nation.
·
Bureaucrats, politicians, professors, radicals, and others will all benefit
from vacating rural America, eliminating the freedoms of Americans, and
destroying American society from guaranteed property rights to the concept at
the beginning of our Constitution that government was founded by us to
insure domestic Tranquility.
What to
do?
Recall or turnout or work against any politician that even
wavers if you ask him or her their position on this. Do not vote for anyone
that is even remotely evasive about this topic. Start pushing state and federal
politicians to rein in these public bureaucrats that enable this stuff. Force
politicians to reform acts like Endangered Species, Marine Mammals, Wilderness,
and Animal Welfare.
Boycott any business or hotel that even remotely supports
this business. If you dont see the connection here between all these
things, you belong on the moon.
Get your state politicians to realize that the time to
overhaul the universities is WAY overdue. New staffs and tenure elimination are
places to start; no matter the cost, it is worth it.
Grade school and high school curriculums need to be
overhauled no matter what the NEA or radicals say.
Come down on US delegations to the UN and make sure American
freedoms are their first concern and that treaties are only an option when we
are in extremis and no other option is available.
Reduce federal grants to universities and states for this
entire range of environmental/animal business.
Look hard at the US Forest Service, Bureau of Land
Management, EPA, National Marine Fisheries Service, US Fish and Wildlife
Service, and National Park Service regarding their size, their budget, their
power, their policies, the lands they control, and what can be done to
eliminate their support, both open and hidden, for proposals such as this
DEPEOPLING AMERICA.
These are some of the things we need to start doing.
Rewilding is a term meant to mislead and a
proposal that clearly displays all of the lies and propaganda we have been fed
over the past three decades.
It is a mortal threat to us all.
Thanks for hanging in on this and please think hard about
what you can do and start doing it.
