God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” — Genesis 1:28

More than 30,000 people make their home on Cape Hatteras on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Six million more visit the barrier island each year to fish, swim, and enjoy the area’s natural beauty. But for the past couple of years, the beaches of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore have been closed to all. Why? The piping plover. This little bird is killing the economy and livelihood of the residents of one of the loveliest areas on the eastern seaboard. All because of a handful of environmentalists — eco-terrorists — who have used pseudo-science to determine that the birds are more important than the people who also inhabit the area.
Tonight we’re talking with three of Buxton, NC’s businessmen whose businesses are dying — join us as we hear from Hal Lester, owner of Finnegan’s Restaurant; John Couch, owner of Red Drum Texaco and president of the Outer Banks Preservation Society; and Donnie Bowers, professional photographer and owner of Indian Town Gallery. You’ll see them in the videos below.
I learned about this story from blogger Brutally Honest Rick who recently vacationed in the area. Shortly thereafter, he wrote this at his website:
A week ago I vacationed in the area covered in the following piece… I saw the signs and didn’t understand them all, didn’t understand the driving forces behind them… I do now… and I’m enraged… you will be enraged… you need to watch the whole damned thing… you need to watch those impacted by environmental thuggery… then you need to pass this on… this needs to go viral… do your part:
Remember the “eminent domain” land takeover in New Jersey? Hawaii? Kentucky? Remember Kelo vs. New London Ct? Think this could happen to you?
Join us this evening to meet Hal, John and Donnie — three men whose small businesses are becoming extinct. Unlike the protected piping plover…

How very sad that the government is putting the possibility of MAYBE messing up a bird habitat over the absolute certainty that people are being displaced and ruined. Those birds will adapt and survive just fine without the help of the federal government. It’s just one more instance of control over people who aren’t doing anything wrong — just living their lives. And that they are KILLING other innocent animals who are just out there trying to survive is unconscionable. They seem to have adapted to the habitat just fine and so will those birds. It’s not like they don’t have ANY other area to go to. This is just more stupidity from the government. It’s what I’ve come to expect from them, but would rather not see anymore of. Here’s a novel concept — how about letting GOD take care of those birds like He has done for the last few million years? Does the government really think they can do a better job than God can? Apparently so.
The gov’t is among the worst of the enviro-nazis. What a tragedy and shame that these people have been locked out and are watching their livlelyhood waste away. Thanks for posting and sending me this by email. You have some excellent
posts. I live in Oregon and know this story all too well. As a former Logger, wildland firefighter and timber cruiser I watched
as the gov’t and these ecoterrorists bastards wrecked my state
from the Pacific Ocean to the Idaho border. Another reason we
must prevail in NOvember!
This is the religion of Hindu. The Communist paid them to come to America in the 1960′s to “enlighten” the young hippie revolutionaries so they could experience their desired freedom.The part they forgot to remind the young slave minds,was this has produced a mass peasant class in India and every country on earth in history where this religion or it’s variants are practiced.Have you noticed amoung the ruling class KARMA seems to cycle a lot more “positive” KARMA for them and their family?
Amen, brother. Amen.
