Environmentalist Whackos Sue to Stop July 4 Fireworks

The left has found an environmentalist excuse to prevent traditional patriotic expression.

The Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation is suing the city of La Jolla, CA to stop its fireworks display, claiming that the Independence Day tradition is perilous to the area's sensitive maritime resources.

According to the organization's lawsuit, the city of La Jolla did not apply for a Coastal Development permit or comply with the California Environmental Quality Act.The foundation also alleged that the ecological impacts of the Fourth of July show, including traffic and the pollutants from firework debris entering the region's coastal resources, have not been considered in an environmental review.

Funny how things that hippies like to do never get in the crosshairs of the environmental left.
