North County Times and the Fallbrook Valley News like to delete my comments on articles related to Liberty Quarry. I wonder why?
I came across some interesting articles the past 24 hours and have posted some comments which I am reproducing here:
Since AB-742 was recently introduced, Granite has been crying for “local government” to decide the issue. Given LAFCO’s denial of the City of Temecula’s original annexation plans due to a request from Granite, I’d be tempted to say some of the $10 million dollars that Garry Johnson has invested spoke louder than local government.
This fight is far from over: Granite will not go away easily.

EVERYONE needs to stay committed to the political process. We MUST elect officials of integrity – and vote them OUT of office when they cease to represent us.
“The people, in delegating authority, do not give their public servants the right to decide what is good for the people to know and what is not good for them to know. The people insist on remaining informed so that they may retain control over the instruments they have created.” – Brown Act, 1953 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_Act

Tribe, Granite Fight Over Sacred Site
The construction company and the tribe argued about whether a site near a proposed quarry is sacred.
Granite cares about nothing except converting rock into cash. They will continue to use their time-tested scripts to achieve goals and ride over local communities using millions of well-placed dollars to grease the wheels of the corrupt to do so.

• Quarry jobs: Most would be taken by unemployed union members from outside of the area.
• There is no way to put a lid over the entire quarry.
• Winds blowing over the quarry will create a partial vacuum pulling material into the atmosphere.
• superfine particulate matter will mix with moisture in the air and form an aerosol which will not fall to the ground.
• ” Editor’s note: This story is actually from a news service; it is not an article written by one of our writers.” – That is a pathetic excuse for how YOU have chosen to portray this issue to YOUR public.
• “….the news service is from Los Angeles who was there and they are in no way in Granite’s back pocket…” This is an equally pathetic statement proven wrong by the contents of the article.
The Editor and Staff ought to be embarrassed for printing Granite’s press release spin as fact. If FVN was at all concerned about advertising from the community which it ostensibly represents; this article would never have come to print. Since you chose to endorse this article the only question is how much money are you directly taking from Granite or its affiliates?
