The U.S. Border Patrol are Saints

Or at least they have the patience of saints, because if I had a run in with the poor man’s Alex Jones from Checkpoint USA I’d have shoved his camera up his ass. Observe the dregs of America in action, and remember this is pretty much the way every truther acts all the time:

Wow. I applaud the professionalism of the agents in the face of a man too stupid to understand that a border checkpoint isn’t unconstitutional unless you think non-Americans have the constitutional right to sneak over the border. Even the boys over at Immigration Watchdog, a site known to dabble in Jonesian conspiracy mongering, came down hard on this prick’s behavior:

I’ve been stopped by Border Agents a few times. It’s not a big deal. Just say “I’m an American citizen” when they ask you, and you’re on your way. Instead, this guy acts like an asshole and then whines about being held up. I wonder if he freaks out like this every time he sees a cop car drive down the street?

The guy has a blog as well as a website so drop by and let him know how you feel about cretin who go out of their way to make law enforcement agents’ lives harder while attempting to undermine our control of our own border.

Fur is Green!

Don’t let the animal murdering hypocrites from PETA fool you, fur trapping is as “green” a business as you can be in. It’s a renewable resource that clothes (and often feeds!) millions of people without pumping chemicals into the environment or destroying natural habitats. Trapping is in fact the closest thing we industrialized countries have to the traditional hunting and gathering society that radical environmentalists think we should all revert to.

But trappers have not mastered the sound bite or learned how to manipulate the media so most people are left with the impression that all fur comes from fur farms where animals are tortured to death by psychopathic goons. The truth is that there are thousands of independent trappers in Canada and the United States who eke out a meager living selling furs because they want to live the kind of life PETA members give lip service to. These free spirited men and women who seek a deeper connection with cruel and beautiful nature are also an important part of our nation’s wildlife management programs and integral to our continued conservation efforts.

The Fur Council of Canada has been running a brilliant campaign to enlighten the public to the truth about fur trapping. Trappers’ rights groups here in the United States would do well to emulate the F.C.C.’s media strategy. With an increasingly emboldened far left having more say in American politics, and radical environmental agendas being promoted as science, our traditional sports and industries will be under increasing pressure and public discussion of the rich history and vital ecological importance of fur trapping will be key to trapping’s continued survival.

For more information on trapping visit The National Trappers Association or pick up a copy of Fur-Fish & Game which is is worth its weight in gold for the serious trapper.
