Uneducated a**hole. Got any interstate highways near you? Maybe we
should cheer for earthquakes, so your highways are destroyed, and you
are stuck in your little redneck town, eh?


Locally......

Actually, there is a lot of truth in what he says. Big money builds
big structures at the water's edge and insures them under the NC Beach
Plan. Obviously and predictably, they are going to be damaged (if not
splintered and scattered the length of the island) in any significant
storm. Since insurance in the 18 coastal NC counties is underwritten
by them.... we all pay elevated costs due to the idiots that build in
harm's way. With protest, I'm subsidizing many for-profit
corporation's dubious surfside ventures and helping with the insurance
costs of multi-million dollar houses sitting at the edge of the surf.
In fact, the NC law enacted to prevent re-building on lots condemned
due to storm erosion has been challenged and those lots, (very
temporarily) reclaimed by dredging, are again buildable. Thus, again,
proving that you are entitled to all of the justice that you can
afford to buy.

And the influx of snowbirds? They have virtually erased all of the
charm that once drew people here to vacation. Now we have traffic
jams, condos, crowded beaches, fewer piers, and a disappearing marine
economy.... not to mention the fact that tax valuations have jumped by
309% in four years. Lewis Grizzard was right.



I'm not commenting on the seemingly uncontrolled growth. I am commenting
on his call for hurricanes. Only an a**hole wishes for such events, so
that there will be all sorts of landside property damage and, probably,
deaths.


Harold, why are you admonishing someone about wishing death on people?
Are you upset that he has taken over your line.
