Jerry: It was clear to me at least,that Jimi was NOT "broad brushing", but talking about a select few that do NOT realize that we DO have dominion over the planet and the animals, as humans, but not to take it to the enth degree of extremism ... and it was certainly NOT written to put you down personally or anybody else here for that matter.. That is how I took it.....I think you took his (Jimi's ) comments personal and they were NOT meant that way at all... IMHO... Chuck

[jerry goldsmith] I am an "Environmentalist"-- and while I worship the "Creator" I understand that I am the "Creator's " steward of the creation while I am on this earth. > > I forgot to add, "Environmentalist" are the truest form of "Hypocrisy". > They demand that the animals and fish have rights and feelings and that "Man" is destroying or hurting them. [jerry goldsmith] Utter nonsense for 99% of "Environmentalists". Only true for fanatics.

[jerry goldsmith] So does that mean you only use wood fires for your home. If that is true do you always plant a new tree for every tree you burn. Does your vehicle use steam or coal. If not, you are one of those hypocrites. Is your flyline spun hemp or to do you use a flyline that is based on petroleum product. Is DonO a hypocrite when he flies to Florida to fish with me. AM I a hypocrite when I fly to New England to striper fish. And yes I drive an Expedition. I can carry 2-3 kayaks and a canoe when I want. And Hans W. must be the ULIMATE HYPOCRITE !! After all he flies from Europe to the US several times a year. > > My point, gather them all up and put them in the desert with "NOTHING" and > see how long they survive [jerry goldsmith] You are right !! I would die. I think that is probably true for 95-98% of all Americans. The real point is use you used a very broad and prejudicial brush when you painted all "Environmentalists" as extremists. Do all Republicans or MP's believe in torturing prisoners ? Of course not. One of the facts of life that all members of western society have to be aware of is that with less than 10%(+/- ?) of the world's population we consume well over 50% (+/- ?) of the world's resources . Personally, I would not even waste the time > making an artificial reef out of the whole bunch in shark infested waters. > Jimi Jimi- that comment does not even deserve an answer. While I hope the kid who harassed Hans does get adjudicated, I do not believe death is an appropriate response. More to follow !!
