Effing unreal.  Yes, well no we change our minds, enter the Clinton Era "Patriot Act" aka "Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996" and another family is being destroyed without due process of any kind.

Can you feel the Freedumb?

Funny in that the govt has no problem destroying an ecosystem resulting from a spill from gold mine but get's all indignant when someone else happens to have an "accident" such as a controlled burn on grazing land. Our govt is nothing short of the Nazi govt that controlled Germany from 1933-45

However, back in 1999, a similar scenario had occurred (a prescribed burn on their land spread to public land), and the Hammonds had been warned that they would face serious consequences should it happen again. As an aside, according to the BLM itself, the 2001 Hardie-Hammond fire had, in fact, “improved range conditions” on the public lands.

It was an accident, but it still improved the grazing. Wonder if the mine spill can say the same thing?

No, the manufactured mine disaster accrues more power to Fedcoats, only by that definition is it defined as an improvement by statists.

Of course you wouldn't need these stupid fires,  if you were simply allowed to clear underbrush,  like how they did it 60 years ago. 

But to envirowackos a fire is natural,  but a chainsaw and a chipper not so much. 

There is a reason why fires not started by people and those started are so much worse now a days,  its because the forests run by governments are no longer properly managed.

It's been that way for 50-60 years now...and people are still dumb enough to listen to these sh*theads!
