"No-Growthers and Their Perfect Little Stepford State" 
By David D. Demar

Regarding John McClaughry's article posted on May 6th titled "Smart Growthers and their Perfect Little State", I have to disagree with the title of his article, not his logic.  From my point of view, being a Vermonter who was born, raised and schooled in Saint Albans (thankfully just before the "rot" set in), I wholeheartedly agree with Mr. McClaughry's message.  But I feel Mr. McClaughry's article should have been titled, "No-Growthers and their perfect little Stepford State".  This would have been more accurate than smart growthers, as the title of his article belies their real intent.  Being in the Pro-Life movement for the past decade (from a perspective of self-education on the issue, I might add), I have come to realize the people on the left really do hate other humans, but they have to make their message palpable for the general public.  The VNRC's website link to ZPG (Zero Population Growth) and their true ideology lays bare for scrutiny their claimed concern for our state and ultimately the mass of humanity within its boundaries.

As for VNRC and its relationship with the "NWCRG" a.k.a. Northwest Citizens for Responsible Growth, with talking heads Sue Prent and Betty Finn, the latter group is mere a satellite created by the former, and their messages and instructions most likely come directly from VNRC.  One thing I would like to point out with the NWCRG is they selected women to be the front people for them.  The psychology behind this ploy is that the aura of "victimizer" would fall upon anyone on our side who would attack their message, making these women "victims" who should be rewarded by us doing their bidding, the old "be reasonable... do it my way" ploy.  Fortunately for me (and unfortunately for them) I do not have a problem attacking these groups, no matter whom they put up for window dressing.  Pity for them.

These anti-human activists are, as I have said publicly on Saint Albans airwaves, "control freaks".  We see this in the Wal-Mart debacle where a the VNRC and NWCRG continue to fight tooth and nail to keep this much-needed store out of Saint Albans and Franklin County for the sole purpose of population control and forcing people in Franklin County to pay homage to democrat/socialist Chittenden for both our daily bread in the form of jobs and of our survival in the form of goods and services.  These groups, non-elected, self-appointed (and self-aggrandizing) alleged do-gooders have nothing but contempt for the humanity that surrounds them.  That is self-evident, as our forefathers would have said.

Anyone studying recent European history should have learned that lesson, but they do not acknowledge the direct connection between Germany's "lebensraum" policy that led to the Holocaust and the anti-growth policies these groups endorse.  But make no mistake, the result will be the same... fewer people, and more resources for the few these control freaks allow to remain.

I have nothing but contempt for these people, neighbors or not.  This is a w-a-r, and we had better realize that and start fighting it like one, if we want to continue living in a free society.
