Oh blah blah, they’ve been there 150 years, find something else complain about, work with them not against them.

Environmentalism is one of the causes of the United States depending on importing food from other countries, the NIMBYS need to wise up unless they enjoy eating food that’s contaminated with pesticides and hormones.

boo hoo…time for the welfare ranchers to move on…this land doesn’t exist for a small hand full of families to turn it into giant meadows of mud and manure…party is over…the whole world is waking up to the insane practices of the meat and dairy industry..there is no romanticizing these primitive businesses…pack up and find a new life already, or you can wait and be forced out.

As much as the instigators of this lawsuit try and soften their assault on historically agreed upon grazing assurances,this becomes clearer to me.
Make a deal-promise with the SF-Marin environmental community,don’t expect them to honor to their word.

Quote:
“President John F. Kennedy, convinced it was some sort of charmed West Coast Cape Cod, created the national park after ranchers and environmentalists fearful of intense development pressures banded together to stop the encroachment of subdivisions on Point Reyes.

As part of the deal, the ranchers insist they were made a promise specifically designed to endure: They could remain as long their families were willing to work in the wet, cold and wind of an unforgiving landscape.”
