Post by: makattak on June 15, 2011, 09:58:59 AM
An EVIIIIIIIL energy company, through its evil machinations, is killing off protected Golden Eagles.

60 per year are getting killed per year and have been since the 80's!!!

And where are the national media on this??? Oh, yeah silent because the killers are...

If God wanted us to use tools he'd have given us ten thumbs.

Soy bean harvests also kill an absurd number of voles.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!! Bwahahahahahah!

We have had huge numbers of these monstrosities go up in our state over the last few years.
I remember reading a Milwaukee Journal article about 2 months ago about an environmentalist biatch who was watching high rise buildings in Milwaukee and taking counts of birds that died while running into the buildings. My comment was that if she were anymore than a poseur should go 50 nw of Milwaukee and count all of the dead birds by the hundreds of windmills- just a few miles down the road from the Horicon National Wildlife Refuge which is one of the biggest stops in the eastern CONUS for migratory birds

They already are demanding that green energy be stopped.

I know, we have some of the only Golden Eagles in the Southeast here and they want to put up windmills. Nevermind that my neighbor's residential windmill is on the west coast getting fixed right now, the 3rd time in two years that it has blown off the tower or broken because too much wind. Meanwhile, there is a beautiful lake a few hours away full of trophy fish and covered up with bald eagles. Cooling reservoir for the nuke plant.

Aha!  I always wondered why there were no bald eagles in the Netherlands.

 :O

The Greenies would rather have that stopped above any other power source, fistful!  Because it's killed more people all over the world than any other sourc... oh, wait.  Well then, because it spews pollutants and CO2 into the ai- no, that's not right either.  Oh, that's right.

It needs to be shut down because nuclear power would permit the continuation of an energy-rich, technological society for all.  The excuse for public consumption, of course, is that it's not perfectly safe. :facepalm: [barf]  Neither's waking up in the morning, jackholes.

The Greenies ultimately want everyone (after mother earth is alleviated of 99% of the population of course) living in an agrarian society living in mud huts- well with the exception of themselves, I mean someone has to sit in the local Starbucks, sip overprices environemtally conscious coffee while running the show.
Its the same old marxist utopian dream in new wrappings.

No, then they'd actually listen to the ornithologists.  I spent a good bit of time chatting with the "birdman" for a wind farm when I was working a contract on the site.  Nearly every bird he found had toxic levels of "environmentally friendly" pesticides and fertilizers in it.  Whether they were hitting the turbines or not, they were dying before they got there.

The main factor in the high number of birds found on the site was the fact that it was cleared; everything else around was farmland and heavy brush.  The farmers aren't going to point out any dead birds they find on their land, and you're not going to find them in the brush very easily, so the big cleared area is where you find a bunch of dead birds.
