Message: <blockquote data-quote="Coalburner" data-source="post: 297592" data-attributes="member: 6206"><p>I was driving back from a wonderful weekend of fishing up in Tobacco Gardens and on my way home I happened to look out the window and see the dragline operating east of Underwood for Falkirk Mine and steam coming from the stacks of the Coal Creek station and thought to myself how sad the current situation is for thousands of families who will soon be in financial ruin, small towns that will be erased, and the states economy which will soon feel a hit as big as anything since Bobcat had shut down years ago.  The laughable part was our lieutenant governor telling McClean county to be open to working with company that just royally fucked our state so we can appear energy friendly (what a joke). It got me thinking how much are normal hard working folks willing to take. It seems we bend over so much that we just stay in the assumed position. I always hear people say things like “be the bigger person” or “that will never happen” or “it’s not worth it.” On a local level I watched the NODAPL bullshit happen a few years ago and watched a bunch of malcontent scumbags come in and vandalize businesses, destroy property, threaten landowners and their families, and kill livestock and I am pretty sure all the losers down there got away with their lawlessness scot-free and left us to pick up the pieces. On a national level it’s worse - There are many examples but the one that sticks out to me is the fact that violent criminals are being let out of jail and a hard working salon owner trying to support her family and employees is put in jail for not complying with a radical leftist judge. It seems we are in a country of two different sets of rules - one set is where you or I make a small error hunting or fishing and we are subject to a large fine or loss of hunting/fishing privileges and another set of rules where you can loot and burn down central Baltimore and it is excused and encouraged because you needed to let out your anger. My question is just how much more are the hardworking and tax paying citizens willing to stomach or should we just get used to it and bend over.</p></blockquote><p></p>
