(They can make your property worthless..and not pay you...) a good read...we are slaves)

The government we live under does not resemble the one that is described in the Constitution. The principal reason for this is the power of federal regulatory agencies, which has grown explosively and is virtually unrestrained by Congress, the courts or even the president, who nominally controls the executive branch. The extra-constitutional administrative state now represents a grave threat to our liberties. The Supreme Court has an opportunity to begin the long process of restoring democratic, constitutional government in a case called Weyerhaeuser Company v. United States Fish and Wildlife Service,

The facts of the Weyerhaeuser case are almost impossible to believe if you haven’t been following the federal government’s regulatory overreach. The Fish and Wildlife Service has designated an area in Louisiana (“Unit 1”) consisting of 1,544 acres as “critical habitat” for the dusky gopher frog even though not a single dusky gopher frog lives in Unit 1. Not only that, it is not possible for a dusky gopher frog to live in Unit 1!

As of 1965, there were only 100 dusky gopher frogs known to exist in the wild, none in Louisiana. It is not hard to understand why: the species has complicated habitat requirements, including small, isolated “ephemeral ponds” located in open canopy forest, for breeding; open canopy forest upland from such ephemeral ponds as non-breeding habitat; and open canopy uplands connecting the two, allowing the frogs passage. Oh, one more thing: this intermediate territory must not only have an open canopy, it must include “abundant native herbaceous species” of ground cover produced by frequent fires. The Fish and Wildlife Service has admitted that Unit 1 does not contain the features necessary to be habitable by dusky gopher frogs–which is consistent,

Great.
Now I wanna go out and kill a Dusky Gopher Frog.

[Lazamataz]

Now I wanna go out and kill a Dusky Gopher Frog.

I hear Dusky Gopher Frog tastes a lot like Northern White Rhinoceros,

[SJSAMPLE]

IF you can find one.
Which, apparently, nobody can.

[Mariner]

This is ALSO the essential issue underlying the horrendous California Wildfires.

The land cannot be cleared of underbrush, anywhere.

Public or private.

They’ll put you in jail if you try.

[6ppc]

Shoot, shovel and shut up!

[gunnut]

There is nothing to shoot. There are no frogs, never have been any frogs and the land in question would not support the frogs even if they were brought to the land.
