Reversing Survival of the Fittest Through Owl Genocide

Posted on by Dave Blount

Ironically, liberal proponents of Darwinism have worked a miracle of evil by reversing a natural process at the heart of Darwin’s theories: survival of the fittest. Their all-smothering welfare state provides financial incentives for the least fit to produce as many offspring as possible; whereas the taxpayers who finance their counterproductive lives of fecund sloth […]

 

Radical Environmentalists Have Blood of 19 Arizona Firefighters on Their Hands

Posted on by Rachel Alexander

The account given by Payne is not the whole picture. Firefighting today is not what it was 20 years ago. Fires 20 years ago moved slowly, at 2-3 mph. Today they move at speeds of 10-12 mph. There are three reasons for this. First, people are building more homes near or within forests. In the […]

Striking a politically correct pose, moonbats including Robert Redford and Bill Richardson have been condemning wild horses to either miserable death by starvation or a comparably cruel if quicker end in Mexican slaughterhouses rather than let a legal business operate: The Navajo Nation made a surprising [to some] move [last] week when it sent a […]

Big Green helps Big Wind hide bird and bat butchery

Posted on by Ron Arnold

It uses tons of fossil fuels every day, emits a greenhouse gas that’s like CO2 on steroids, can’t do the job it’s made for, costs taxpayers exorbitant fees, and makes the federal government look mentally ill for giving it outrageous subsidies. It also chops up birds, bats and scenery with roads and monstrous 400-foot-tall machines. […]
