(This article shows how far from Rule of Law we've come. Also indicates that all farming/agriculture interests in the Prime Soils areas of the state unite to protect and defend their land from both HSR and the Tunnel Debacle. There is a bigger picture and higher agenda to both of these questionable projects and it's time for us Regular Folk to wake up and act.)

(There's always something to be applied to every day life from a football analogy...and it's almost Turkey/Football Day!)
Cowardice asks the question: is it safe? Expediency asks the question: is it political? Vanity asks the question: is it popular? But conscience asks the question: is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor political, nor popular – but one must take it simply because it is right. — Martin Luther King, Jr.

California Salmon Fall ShortAfter two surveyors said the state's work was sound, Philip Miller, Carol's brother, said he wasn't surprised.
"I knew it was going to happen," he said. "You're a public agency, you rely on your staff."
But though several board members took pains to say they strongly felt property owners should have a say, Lagrand said she felt otherwise.
"They don't listen," she said. "We're being bullied into a deal we don't want to accept.
"I'd advise anyone who has property that backs up to a levee to watch your back."

(Please read this, then the following quote from an email I received today...
Here’s a bit of hope for those who are on the front lines here in California. We may not be able to save our own state, but the rest of the country is watching us and hopefully they will save themselves.
A few weeks ago I was asked to brief a handful of legislators from another state about Agenda21 and what is happening here in California. I won’t mention which one because I don’t want to compromise their efforts to fight this cancer from taking over their own state. They asked me to brief them so that they could be prepared for what might be coming their way.
The fact that another state is interested in learning about this issue and how it is being implemented in California gives me hope. They were so blown away by what they heard that they scheduled another briefing. The second briefing was given by me, Sheriff Lopey from Siskiyou and Ken Delfino a City Council member from Colfax. The briefing was attended by almost 60 state legislators, city and county officials as well as sheriffs. This gives me hope that our fight here in California will not be in vain. This gives me more reasons to fight to expose Agenda21.Ken Delfino, City Councilman from Colfax kicked off the briefing. He discussed how he learned about Agenda21 in his community and how he and his fellow Council members refused to go along with the regional communitarian plan being pushed by SACOG (Sacramento Council of Governments). His town also passed an anti-Agenda21 resolution and continues to oppose it and any other attacks on private property rights and individual liberties.Sheriff Lopey then followed and spoke about the plight of the rural folks up in the Northern part of our state. He explained how the spotted owl decades ago was the beginning of the devastation of the livelihood of the communities in the North by the extreme environmentalists. His County has since suffered unrelenting attacks on private property rights and now the very life blood, water is being used as a tool to put the final nail in the coffin for his community.
He and other sheriffs are fighting together to save their communities. He and fellow Constitutional Sheriffs stand as a beacon of hope for not just the people of the northern part of our state, but the rest of the country.Then it was my turn. I spent my time connecting the dots for the legislators by explaining how the plans for the rural areas relate to the Sustainable Development plans for suburbs and cities.
American Farmland TrustThe meeting lasted almost 2 hours. In the end we took questions and that was it.I’m telling you all of this, because many of you are so dejected after the election that we all need to know that our efforts are making a difference. Maybe not here, but somewhere else people are paying attention and are heading our warnings! This is why I fight………………..God bless America and those who care enough to speak the truth and defend her from enemies both domestic and foreign!Do NOT give up the fight!

(Seems video quality is spotty. This is important to the Delta as the proposed National Heritage Area comes under the direct control of Ken Salazar, (ok which ever appointed Napoleonic potentate appointed to Sec of Interior).
Here is proof of NPS shenanigans on the coast. Do NOT kid yourself for one second of one minute that eventually one of your farming/business operations won't be attacked and shut down just like this. Heck, we know for a fact the NAS has called out the ineptitude and inaccuracies of the so-called 'science' in the BDCP. "Two such incidences create a coincidence, THREE such instances establishes a pattern". It's PATTERNS people that must be recognized, dots connected and utilized to defeat these illegal and immoral acts by protecting and defending our property, our Constitutions and reestablishing Rule of Law.)

Why oh WHY do the Delta-specific meetings always get slammed on the same day, same time and miles and miles apart????? Deliberate, willfull multi-scheduling does nothing to include Delta residents. How the hell can they when they are being scheduled same night, same time???
Come on Agencies, really? REALLY???? Just more of the same old, same old....lip sevice to our communities and the letter of the law. How's that tap-dancing on the spirit of the law working for you??? Sure as hell ain't working in our favor now, is it?

(I like this Board of Supervisors!!!:
District 3 Supervisor Michael Kobseff told Milliron, "I take great offense for you to say to any one of these board members, 'come to the meeting and give those comments.' When we're giving you comments and asking questions here, it's as good as gold as being at the meeting and if it's not, don't show up here again. Because I'm giving you information that you should be hearing and writing down. This is the elected body of the county. You should be paying attention." )Appeal Democrat
