an environmental group threatened to sue over pollution concerns

Although Congress is doing the most to destroy the quality of life for average people, the tag-team of environmentalists and trial lawyers is running a strong second.

Will the elites in D.C. be getting one of these letters the group is threatening to send to other cities? Will the elites in Nantucket/Mass/wherever the leftist vermin live? Or is this threat only reserved for a conservative/military town/family area?

From the link it does not appear to be satire. I guess now that they’ve set a precedent for this $h!+ we can look forward to more of the same on July 4th.

I am so damn glad I don’t live in Commie-fornia anymore. It’s a lost cause.

I would guess that the amount of atmospheric "pollution" created by one major volcanic eruption easily exceeds the volume of all celebratory fireworks ever used by man during the past 1000 years. Such volcanic eruptions occur regularly. Do we now propose to outlaw volcanoes? Of course not. Such legislation has as its purpose not environmental protection, but the creation of false self-esteem on the part of its promoters.

I want my country back.

I know some have difficulty with the truth, but unfortunately, the reality is, this government intrusion and all encompassing, all controlling laws and regulations, are not just isolated to Cal.

Like the open borders at one time only affected the southwest...Those days are long over, and it's now in all states and towns.

I mean, look what *America* now has a president...lol
