The War on Wood Storves

Via Anonymous, who puts it thusly: "starts off as "They are banning our wood stoves!" and soon degenerates into being Freeper than thou"

The EPA is regulating that new wood stoves must meet certain pollution standards. Freepers are sure they are coming for their camping equipment, and from there, it is exactly as Anon said:

C210N - wood stoves are all that prevent urban communism:

This has gotta be right out of the Agenda-21/ICLEI playbook. Gotta get people into the cities where they can be warmed by government, and leave the wilderness to the spotted owls.

Alas Babylon! explains that wood stove regulations lead to killing all the poor people:

The one’s they're aiming to hurt are first the manufacturers of simple wood-burning stoves.

Secondly, they're attempting to make it impossible to sell your wood-burning stove, or have a business reselling them, or even a consumer trading in their older wood-burner for a newer and more efficient model.

Lastly, the poor and not-rich who need a wood-burning stove will probably not be able to afford the new stoves designed to lower the particle size, so they either have to make do with an older stove, maybe in disrepair to the point of danger, or try to construct one themselves, also wrought with danger.

And these three things will happen without a single jack boot crossing a threshold.

The new economy. Government by bureaucrat fiat.

RC one smugly notes how the Republican-emasculated EPA will never catch him and his wood stove!

In related news, the EPA has had to cut its operating staff by 90% thanks to Republicans. I’ll be sure to laugh about that this week when I’m sipping brandy next to my woodburner.

knarf wants to shoot all government officials:

Bureaucrats ought to be banned from creating law.

I can’t say what the solution is .... not what I think the solution is .... but what it is.

maine yankee loves nice, easy acts of rebellion:

Who ever thought burning wood would become an act of civil disobediance.

Usually jolly Lazamataz is on one of his apocalyptic streaks...

This is a global push. Millions, perhaps billions, will die. That part may occur after we are long dead, but believe me when I tell you, you will feel the Globalist and Agenda 21 influences before you die.

I have a wonderful ability to sense broad trends. I've been proven right again and again. My ability to predict the short term is almost 100% wrong, but my long term predictions are at about 90% correct.

The only way these initiatives fail to get traction is if there is a major, especially nuclear, war. Even a pandemic plays into the enemies hand.

Ouderkirk is ready to shoot at the Stove Inspectors:

Second Amendment protections were put in place so that citizens could shoot operatives of an oppressive government, not deer.

I always wanted to shoot a communist....an EPA agent is the next best thing.

itssme really, really wants Civil War 2 already!

EVERYONE: Ignore, obstruct, delay, dismantle the socialist government and the traitor who is “pResident” in the White Hut. Be the Freedom Fighters for our time...look up the term and read how Freedom Fighters fought for freedom and liberty from their Nazi captors, from their Japanese guards in prison camps during World War II. Read, learn and apply. Join forces with like minded people who love this country and will fight for the Constitution, our Liberty and Freedom.
