The only thing
that might save your life and property in a wild fire is your preparation
and the Firefighters who respond.
The
California Fire Safe Council brags of 34 different Fire Safe Councils in
San Diego County and what good did they do?
San
Diego County Fire Safe Council has been in existence for ten years. Are there less wild fires in San Diego
County? I don’t think so but there are more Fire Safe Councils than ever
before, so what is the real purpose of all these 501c3 non-profit citizen
groups? The purpose; Agenda 21 –
“Empower community groups, non-governmental organizations and individuals
to assume the authority and responsibility for managing and enhancing their
immediate environment…”
Below is the
American Individualist way of addressing the wild fire situation.
Quote: “Gary
Ezell and his wife, Lory Lipary, didn't need a fire code or council to
prompt them to take precautions.
"The fires
(in Southern California) were kind of a wake-up call for my wife and
I," Ezell said.
On Thursday, they
hired Brushbuster Inc. of Foresthill, which cleared overgrown brush on two
acres and a number of trees too close to their house in Clipper Gap, a rural
community off Interstate 80 in Placer County.
"It cost
right around $2,500, and it was worth every penny." Ezell said.
The couple's
house is stucco with a tile roof and a concrete patio. Ezell said he is
"ahead of the game" compared with the many other mountain
dwellers with wood siding, wood shingles and overhanging wood decks, all
invitations to fire.” End quote. The Sacramento Bee
Here are your
Collectivists and supporters of the soviet system of councils:
Quote: “We are
not going to die for your homes," U.S. Forest Service [financial
supporter of CFSC] spokesman Matt Mathes said of crews as they battled the
Angora fire that destroyed 254 houses but caused no deaths on the outskirts
of South Lake Tahoe in June. "Our firefighters may well bypass a house
... because it's unsafe to defend," Mathes said. "They would
rather focus efforts on a house they have a chance of saving." End
quote. (Like anyone would ask them
to die, however, the statement transfers all guilt to the home owner who
has little or no control over the environment.)
Jim Schwab,
manager of the Hazards Planning Research Center at the American Planning
Association in Chicago.
Quote:
"Property rights are nice, but in some instances the ability to do
anything you want with your own property can affect a lot of other people's
property as well, particularly when you're talking about a dense
subdivision.
There are times
when you have to tell people what to do, and this is one of them." End
quote. The Sacramento Bee
Which are you?
Do
you think it is your neighbor’s and the government’s responsibility to make
you safe or are you responsible for you?
Agenda
21 and the California Fire Safe Councils are Collectivism at its peak and
that makes them anti-Individual and anti the Bill of Rights.

Fire
Safe Councils, what’s next?
Now Read: AMERICA –
YOUR CHANGING WORLD
***
· The
very worst thing about “Agenda 21” is, they are implementing it in an
un-American way because it is anti- American. They know if we the people were asked to
vote on it and ratify it by each state, it would never pass.
· They
are all guilty. This is not about
being a Democrat or a Republican it’s about being an American. Every elected official who is sneaking
this past the citizens of this country is not worthy of calling themselves
an American.
· There
is no middle road here. You either
support implementing Agenda 21 or you oppose implementing Agenda 21. Which flag is your flag?
AGENDA
21 FREEDOM
21
· Make
“Agenda 21” an election issue for your Congressman.
· “Agenda
21” should be a public debate issue.
Let’s bring “Agenda 21” out of the closet and shine the bright light
of scrutiny on the subject so all Americans know what’s happening.
· Become
an anti-soviet, become a Freedom 21 Fighter.
· To
be a Freedom 21 Fighter you don’t have to join anything. You don’t have to pay any dues. You don’t have to attend any
meetings. You just have to learn
about Agenda 21 because you can’t fight something you know nothing
about. Then you must share your
knowledge with your friends and neighbors.
And the next time you meet someone who is running for elected
office, any office, ask them where they stand on Agenda 21 “sustainable
development”. Be a Freedom 21
Fighter!
· May
GOD Bless the United States of America.
