people at the mercy of a gov't gone "fowl"

just out of curiosity,what is the red flag thingy with the black stripe and the three white x's?

 

I was thinking the same thing.

 

Too funny. I was thinking the exact same thing.Matt J, Please close thread

 

Flag of Amsterdam.

 

like i said before, someone lock this thread. this is not going to turn out well

 

ohhhhh,so can you please move to amsterdam and save all the birds there?

and another thing,they close all access,walking included,to the entire beach,all the time,it's not just driving,and they are KILLING lots of non-bird animals to protect the bird,but since you are such an expert you already knew all that and must have forgot.
you are now reminded.

plus there's way too many threads on this topic for a long time now on swellinfo,so just give me your number,and the next time i need help with a stranded seabird,seal or whale up here i'll call you so you can help put all your love of everything but hatteras people to good use instead of wasting it on this thread that is long since played out.

by the way,
who's mike b.?

 

the victim of Motion's wrath. he and motion got into a huge argument and then mike got banned by the mod, Matt Johnson. i see this thread going down the same route

 

"A fool despises good counsel, but a wise man takes it to heart."

 

Mikeb was a superior (in his own mind) know it all douchebag troll....kind of like this guy.

 

guess i missed the mike b. thing.
i was in hatteras without a computer,communing with nature.
and surfing my brains out.

oh,by the way, andrew,good comeback

 

I dont see how Vehicals on the Beach or any other areas like forests does anything wrong as longs as you Tread Lightly and you dont have a heep that leaks all over the place.

People need to learn to leave it the way they found it before they were there

 

most of the areas closed this summer were also closed to all pedestrian traffic.

 

yeah,i 'reminded' him on page 3 post #26 about no people,driving or walking,and the killing of other living creatures,but he claims to know everything about this problem,yet ignores all these numerous corrections,like how it is not an endangered species.
the people of Hatteras may be someday,though,if this keeps up

 

There is zero empirical ambiguity pertaining to the closing of the beaches to vehicle, or human traffic during specific breeding periods. Yes, the beaches were used as highways on Hatteras Island before route 12 and Oregon Inlet bridge were constructed; That's why the highway was constructed........ The point of compromise is over for the majority of the species on the Outer Banks; which is the reason drastic action should be taken. Why should a few minor local interests subvert threatened and endangered species? People will still come in droves to the OBX, even if they're restricted to their McMansions along the beach.

 

From an ideological perspective your correct; the pragmatism of the issue is the complete antithetical ecological stratification of both environments. Trees are significantly harmed by excess exhaust from vehicles, not including the leaking carcinogens. Think of the many creatures trampled to death by someone driving a large truck over the beaches. It is more than a few birds and turtles which are being destroyed. I wish everyone would bring their trash as they leave, but we all know this isn't the case. A quick walk south from Buxton on the main thoroughfare to the cape will highlight the many colors of plastic littered all over the beach.

 

Do u know the what tread lightly is ????

Its using exhisting man made or trails made my nature. If you dont go off the path or make your own trail vegitation is not harmed . Trees are harmed my the emissions of vehicals but there are trees everywhere so what do you suggest park are car or trucks???

I am a firm beliver of leave it the way you found it or better. I dont know how much trash it take with me off the beach thats not my own.

 

Fine I will say it...andrewk529 you are a douche. Go back to Amsterdam or just stay your ass in Delaware. Nothing minor about this issue. Government never gives back what it takes...it just takes. No new compromise needed stick to the original agreement.

PS. Contrary to your pompous self righteous tree hugging douchbaggery not everyone in Hatteras lives in mansions. Most of my friends and family are just getting by as is. You are not the solution... you are the problem

 

i've lived here on hatteras island for 34 years and things were fine until people that don't live here started sticking their noses where they don't belong.

this is not a beach driving issue........it's a public lands access issue. take away a little bit here, a little bit there and eventually there will be nothing left for people to enjoy.
