NS whitetail Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 It's hard to fix stupid people :hammer2: Someone set all the grass on fire yesterday that is all along the beach here, they're to stupid to relize that all the shorebirds and other birds are making nests there this time of year. Like I said " it's hard to fix stupid, it's breed every day" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Islands east end just put out a 1000 acre wild fire that was burning up the Pine Barrens. A BIG Thank you to all the fireman out there who run into fires while most of us run from it.
