We're here! We're queer! We don't want anymore bears!
http://www.newsday.com/news/local/wire/newjersey/ny-bc-nj--bear-freezones0807aug07,0,2265161.story?coll=ny-region-apnewjersey

TRENTON, N.J. -- New Jersey wildlife officials are considering a plan to create bear-free zones as a way to manage the state's surging black bear population.

The unusual approach would make urban and other densely populated areas off-limits to bears and restrict the bruin population in regions such as southern New Jersey, where the bears are far less plentiful than in the state's mountainous northwest region.

"Most people agree, you don't want bears in areas like Hudson County, Union County and Middlesex County _ all urban areas with no real habitat for bears," Len Wolgast, a wildlife biology professor and member of the state's Fish and Game Council, told The Sunday Star-Ledger of Newark.

Are these people getting louder or dumber?

8. Call the Minutemen! They're after your jobs!
Just you watch, soon they'll be mowing lawns, digging ditches, crowding the schools, and clogging up the Emergency Rooms. Next thing you know they'll want their country back! Just think of the effect on sports! I mean, the Chicago Bears and UCLA Bruins will own the leagues!
