Title: Green Building Code - There goes more of the peasants money.
Post by: glenn kangiser on July 22, 2008, 12:57:54 AM

Follow California's lead --- who really wants to? hmm   Maybe uninformed environmentalists.

Read the replies -- they started making me sick so I had to reply. d*

hmm -- looks like I gave at least some of them something to think about.  Hooray for me.  :)

Glad there are more "informed" people on here... unfortunately far too many people (sheeple) believe everything the nice Government tells them.

Makes me proud to live in Minnesota...at least until they follow in California's footsteps. :)

Yeh, I did a little enlightening myself...   heh

Here's a link I posted on Agenda 21 - I've posted it here before, don't know if many checked it out, but it is a great website - lots more than Agenda 21

Woops, Glenn & I just checked out the Environmental site's comments - they've disappeared  ???  wonder why?  They state on their website that they "want to see our views & our visions"  evidently they didn't like the direction it was going - too much truth!   heh

The even blocked the ability of anybody to comment.  I sent them e-mail to ask why the censorship was necessary.

Now I wish I'd copied the responses from everyone.

We'll see if they have the huevos to reply to me -- I don't expect them to be nice.

This censorship thing unfortunately is all too common, a great one for it is Sky News website, they allow you to post a comment which then gets submitted and checked for its content and then added a few hours later...that is unless you have a non conformist or government line... makes me sick the way that main stream media manipulate, outright lie and fabricate "News" to dupe the public....and they do it everyday. d*

Glenn I bet you have never been called a technical kink before. Suffice it to say you have been worked out.  ;D

i'm glad i read the whole article right away. another eye opener, not about glen's comments, as true as they were, but about censorship in that seperate country called california. did you hear about those three men killed by an illegal in san fran? the mayor had declared s.f. a sanctuary city. too bad it wasn't his family.

Killings are common in our big cities -- surprised it made news.

Let's see if his word is good about working out technical difficulties, and if all of the comments come back.  Maybe he will surprise us.
