All these Top Wildlife Issues goals will remain futile unless our Open-Borders Overlords are stopped from infinitely redoubling US population numbers.
Bob Patterson replies:
tma..I think with education and exposure to the treasures we are fortunate to access in the US, immigrants will not have a deleterious effect on same. With the exception of Native Americans, everybody else has origins from somewhere else. Reform immigration and stop American business from offering jobs and problems regarding "open borders" can be managed.
Thank you, Bob Patterson, for your reply, although it completely ignores the overriding problem of US population numbers infinitely redoubling, including that fueled by Third World birthrates. Technically, Native Americans also migrated here, and weren't the first. Nor are today's surviving Native Americans helped by being further inundated by countless more outsiders.
For many decades Republican politicians have called for 'Border Control!' while Democrats have replied 'Employer sanctions!' (although strangely oppose workplace raids), as if the two polices were mutually exclusive, while both groups have remained as happy as clams as the borders remain open, cheap labor keeps flooding in and the environment keeps getting ever more paved over. All this at a time when liberal ‘environmentalists’ try to do things like slow development, equivalent to proudly slamming shut a few random portholes on the Titanic. Or, unbelievably, they talk about how semi-open borders just need to be “managed.” Frankly, protecting the environment are not at all one of their central concerns.
Even more incredible are ‘environmentalists’ who refuse to see that the number-one reason millions of people from around the world are crowding into the US, and other Western Nations, is that our Open-Borders Overlords are merrily giving away our natural and taxpayer resources, and by so doing sending a worldwide message that we have an inexhaustible cornucopia of fertile topsoil, pure water, fresh air, jobs, wildlife habitat and social programs for all.
But where will we locate the next New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco Bay Area population numbers? Not to worry–assuming this was not a parody--because “education and exposure to the treasures we are fortunate to access in the US, immigrants will not have a deleterious effect on same.” With respect, such a statement could be placed on a plaque in a museum devoted to liberal environmentalist delusions that helped destroy the last of our environment, and culture, maybe constructed on top of some burned-out wasteland after the fall of the West, perhaps in the Yosemite Valley, the Everglades or New York’s former Central Park.
But what is the most incredible of all? It is not just politicians who pose as environmentalists while lining their pocket with tons of contributions from the Multicultural Marxist - Predatory Capitalist globalist crowd. It is often environmental leaders themselves who are in the forefront of destroying the environment by overpopulation, by carefully avoiding the open-borders-overpopulation-environmental destruction connection. Or acting as sort of vague above-the-fray apologists for our Blade Runner future.
Of course all this is not taking place among environmental groups just because of naive wide-eyed idealism. It has been shown that some major environmental organizations have taken large contributions that were contingent upon keeping away from the topic of mass legal and illegal immigration. Therefore these groups that should be in the forefront of environmental protection have been emasculated from touching the hydrogen bomb of environmental destruction: ever worsening overpopulation as a result of open borders to the Third World, including resulting offspring.
Not necessarily all of them, but the mainstream environmental organizations that have sold out, like the Mainstream Media, do their environmental dirty work mostly by careful omission. This type of systematic omission is obviously a type of lying, of the most virulent sort, for which our future environment, its plants and critters, and our grandkids’ grandkids will pay the ultimate price.
Finally, thank you, Mr. Bob Patterson, I do appreciate your taking the time to state your views on this important matter.
Follow-up:
This discussion continues at the link below. Bob Patterson turns out to be a very open-minded and intelligent person to communicate with on the migration-overpopulation-environment connection.
Much appreciated, Bob Patterson! --tma
