Don’t forget, many judges (state & fed)in CA are themselves evirowhackos, so don’t write this off.

Do it! Please!

Nothing would be better than to expose the marxists posing as “environmentalists”, IMO.

Perhaps a significant number of eyes on the “left” would be opened to the absurd agenda that is being pursued with the help of those on the “left” who ignorantly support these asshats.

I am all for cutting off SF in any capacity, including water.

But do understand the water from Hetch Hetchy is some of the purest water anywhere in the world, and a huge source of it. Tastes good too.

I have hiked both sides of the lake and it is most super. It is super because there are not hordes of people around like in Yosemite valley. Drain it and there will be hordes there too.

Does anyone who loves the outdoors really want that?

Ya just cannot make this stuff up. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

“an environmental group has filed a lawsuit attempting to drain Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, a linchpin of the water supply for 2.6 million Bay Area residents from San Francisco to San Jose to southern Alameda County.”

“In 2012, Restore Hetch Hetchy placed a measure on the San Francisco ballot....... It failed in a landslide, 77-23 percent.”

This is very bad. If the drought affects CA residents more, they will start to emigrate to the Rocky Mtn states. We must do all we can to prevent this.

Great plan!

This could cause a big split in the enviral whacko groups!

Gay Friscoers are big supporters using our delta water for a worthless sucker! Let them drink and bathe w/Avian!

Probably, 99.99% of judges are charter senior members of the Sierra Club or worse.

About a decade ago a friend was being sued/fined on a trumped charge of endangering red legged frogs for daring to use hay bales
to prevent flooding of a parking lot, he owned by an office building he owned, from a seasonal creek.

On advice, he had an expensive study done, which documented that no red legged frogs had ever lived on his property. The envirals and fish and game said “That doesn’t matter. Your property looks like it could be a home for red legged frogs!

His lawyer was an old fashioned democrat, and I suggested to both of them to challenge any judge who was an active Sierra Club member.

They got several judges to recluse themselves until they got a non Sierra judge. That judge during a preliminary hearing, threw the case out after reading survey report. He then admonished the asst DA, Fish and Game and the enviros for their bogus charges.

I think Johnny Carson diagnosed this mental disorder better than any shrink ever has! He referred to it as “Shiffer Branes Syndrome!!!”
