    And this prevents the spread of Covid 19 and curtails water pollution? Explain how that works and if it makes sense I will accept it.

    Weather.com is reporting MODERATE DROUGHT CONDITIONS in the area of Mt Rushmore and is advising against fireworks in the area!!There is a LOGICAL REASON they have not had fireworks there in over ten years.

    If you think we give a damn about the acceptance of the left or feel any need at all to justify ourselves to you, you are barking up the wrong tree. I will be watching the livestream that starts in three hours.

    Happy Birthday America!!!! (livestream below):

    Hardly, what other conclusion can one come to based on the evidence?

    Because they BELIEVE in a perfect world and want that to happen even if they have to set the current world on fire.

    Trump is the standard bearer for cluelessness, mediocrity (at best) and from a scientific standpoint...a return to the dark ages. He also represents folks who would have been loyalists to the throne and supporters of generational aristocracy who are happily willing to dwell in a kingdom of serfs and lords.

    I see where 612,000 different Native Americans want to keep making $35 billion a year.

    Indian Casino Facts Indian casino revenue neared $32.4 billion in 2017. Indian gaming operates in 29 states. 38 percent of all U.S. gambling revenues come from the two states California and Oklahoma. Indian gaming provides 612,000 jobs nationwide (both direct & indirect jobs).

    Having a major problem with a sculpture but not a hotel/casino/resort/golf course that accounts for 10 times the size of Mt Rushmore? Pretty hypocritical.

    And we are supposed to ignore that all of the globalist elites are lined up against Trump? We are supposed to ignore that all of the neocons/neolibs who have been in power for decades are lined up against Trump?

    If you are not able to comprehend that the generational aristocracy is on your side, I cannot help you. It is blindingly obvious to those of us paying attention.

    PS. There is a reason that conservative thought is being scrubbed from social media... it is because the generational aristocracy has demanded it.

    Only in America can we turn a pandemic into a political issue. Yep, they’re right. We’re a immature country.

    Wear a mask, keep your distance, and stop dragging this damn pandemic out. Our part is not exactly rocket science.

    Pray tell, what position is sided with on the part of yourself? Are mask and social distancing requirements justified, or were the protests justified? It is one or the other, not both. Either side with government telling individuals what to do and how to live their lives, or side with the people opposing government.

    Yes, there was a logical reason....it was because the Ponderosa pine in that area became infested with beetles which killed the trees. In those 10 years, the Ponderosa trees have been removed and the land has had many controlled burn in the area to clean up woody debris on the forest floors. Since April, there have been many controlled burns specifically in the Mt Rushmore area to lessen the chance of forest fires from lightning strikes and in anticipation of the return of fire works.

    The fireworks display has a Go/No-go checklist that will be gone through prior to the fireworks taking place. Even 1 No-go will cancel the event....even if it is at the last minute. While there will likely be a few spot fires started....and which I have no doubt the media will paint them as raging forest fires,.....there will be 60-80 firefighters staged during the event to contain the spot fires so that they do not spread.

    The marriage of stupidity and sociopathy gives birth to a death cult and these yoyos think that they are being patriotic by screwing with the environment and risking the well being of other Americans because they are watching fireworks. The most un-American and unpatriotic bunch of pinheads the nation has to offer.

    The claim of harm to the environment is nothing more than gas-lighting. This was addressed in the FONSI and potential carcinogens being added to the ground water was mitigated. The claim is nothing more than a grasp at straws in order to provide validation of opposition.

    The argument of "no social distancing" is the same grasp at straws. There are many reports justifying the protests saying the virus is much more difficult to spread at out-door activities. While social distancing is not going to be enforced, that does not mean that it is not recommended. The Governor stated that it was the personal responsibility of the viewers to practice safe viewing.

    If you are concerned about the spread of the virus at this event, then don't go.

    Please elaborate on this "water pollution"...they already got caught in a lie about "drought conditions" so you are not the least bit skeptical about that claim? How do spent fireworks pollute water?

    At this point I am out of F's to give about any of this.

    The left did not, does not, and will not care about the spread of Wuhan-19 when it came to Floyd protests - and I saw far thousands of people closer than six feet together and maskless. That ship has sailed, and at this point the concern trolling the left is doing about social distancing and suchlike has officially become a joke. And as far as the fireworks - well, considering how long we've been living with fireworks displays already, I just don't care any more, especially since no one seems to be doing anything about the fireworks going off now. Anyone been concerned about the water supply for the past month? I mean, I live pretty close to the California Aquaduct.

    Oh, and it's nice seeing you again. I remember 30 years ago when you were the WWF Women's Champion. Good times.

    the dems in NYC will have fireworks over the Hudson River...they don’t seem to care about water pollution.

    the dems in LA will get to have fireworks and nobody seems to care about the wildfires
