Oh, give it a rest... The environmentalists brought this on themselves.

Some of the best remaining wildlife areas are in the shape they are in because of the military, not in spite of it. Case in point...The Marines at Camp Pendleton California have been using their beaches to practice landings since the base was established in 1942. Because the Marines have taken care of this big piece of California real estate, it remains in great condition and wildlife abounds. But rather than leave a great situation alone, the environmentalists want some say in the matter and have tried legally to get the Marines to stop practicing beach landings. What a bunch of idiots... Might as well try to get fish to stop swimming and birds to stop flying.

The purpose of the military is to protect this country and they don't need environmentalist wackos telling them how and where they should train!

If you spent any time at Camp Pendleton, you would realize that the best thing that anyone can do is leave the Marines to take care of their own backyard.

Semper Fi!
