Alligators and Environmentalists

Alligator attacks are in the news:

While the news is alarming to most Florida residents (and tourists), the attacks should cause rejoicing among environmentalists.

George Reisman's brilliant article "The Toxicity of Environmentalism" explains why:

or:

A recording of this lecture (given at the University of Michigan) is available and it took only 4 minutes for Reisman to get to the alligator line. If you were homeschooled you can read the article at one of the links above and get to the line in about a minute, or 2 minutes if you went to government schools and move your lips when you read. The entire article is a must.

Then if you're ready for the logical conclusion of environmentalism, click here:

It's no joke. They're serious.
