The powers that be have breached the damn within sight of my home near Hornbrook, California. I gave the property to my family years ago so they would always have a home in a safe place. I was old and moved to town... where leftist anarchists burned my community. The wells are being contaminated. Toxic sludge now covers the beautiful high desert landscape. It's not safe. My old neighbors watch families of wildlife stuck in the silt, dying horrendous deaths.

This is like Palestine, Ohio.. only worse.. our own government did this to us. No...they have no intention of compensation for the taking of private property.

Between the Almeda fire, where we got no warning and this.. I have now lost everything that I worked a 76 year life for my family. Gone!

I’m so sorry.

The govt’s of the West discovered they could use the “environment” issue whenever they want for the power grabs they want.

And at the same time, like Palestine Ohio, if they don’t care about who is hurt, they just ignore it.

They are evil, corrupt Regimes, and deserve to Fall.

A Losing Trade – Quality of Human Life + Millions of Animals Dead For What? The Possibility of a Better Salmon Run?
Siskiyou News ^ | Wm. Simpson
Posted on 2/14/2024, 3:18:09 PM by AuntB

For over 100-years after the first dam was installed (Copco 1 Dam) and over 60-years after Iron Gate Dam was installed, there was nevertheless a decent run of Salmon and steelhead in the Klamath River, even with all of the changing ocean conditions, climate change, and OVERFISHING by both indigenous people and others. Any fishing guide on the Klamath River below Iron Gate Dam would attest to the fact that fishing was great.

Therefore, this is the ONLY relevant Question: Is the deaths of millions of wildlife (mammals, birds, fish, etc.) and the collapse of an entire ecosystem, on top of the devastation of the disadvantaged community of people who live on and around the Lakes (Copco & Iron Gate Lakes), a reasonable payment in exchange for the unproven possibility of an improved salmon run?

The honest answer is NO! It’s a horrendous and insane price to pay that only eco-terrorist would demand.

My father, a very wise man, once told me that: When adults do things that don’t make any sense, it’s usually about money. snip

Dumb people, trying to undo what was done and which wildlife adapted to. Loss of water resources for human activity to “save” salmon which adapted just fine. And in 50,000 years or less, none of it will matter anyway as it will evolve or change again.

I’m so sorry for you. I can’t begin to imagine how you have to feel about the greed, corruption, flagrant disregard for our fellow man, private property rights, and worst of all, LIBERTY. My sympathy, and I share in your disgust.

Our world is being run by people whose worst luck was that their mothers carried them to term.
