What the f***?
"Chemtrails" for those who are unfamiliar with this, is a conspiracy theory. As Wikipedia summarizes it:
The chemtrail conspiracy theory /ˈkɛmtreɪl/ is the erroneous belief that long-lasting condensation trails left in the sky by high-flying aircraft are actually "chemtrails" consisting of chemical or biological agents, sprayed for nefarious purposes undisclosed to the general public. Believers in this conspiracy theory say that while normal contrails dissipate relatively quickly, contrails that linger must contain additional substances. Those who subscribe to the theory speculate that the purpose of the chemical release may be solar radiation management, weather modification, psychological manipulation, human population control, biological or chemical warfare, or testing of biological or chemical agents on a population, and that the trails are causing respiratory illnesses and other health problems.
Uff.

Apparently global warming coming up with some blaming that on chemtrails. How ignorant can a person be? It's amazing that they actually will acknowledge that its occuring, and man made, but has to be caused by some bat shit crazy conspiracy theory.
Don't vote for anyone on this list after this, save for Provenza and Crago. You can judge them on their merits otherwise, but they didn't fall for this whacky shit or tolerate it.
Simply amazing, and depressing.
Footnotes:
*I'm using the word Ignoramus in its original English connotation, as derived from the Latin. I.e., an ignorant person.
Not a stupid person.
To willfully believe something stupid is ignorant, particularly when done by intelligent people. Some of these people are undoubtedly highly intelligent, and I don't know that any of them are stupid, but they're willfully voting for something that is just a weird silly conspiracy theory.
And that makes it all the more shameful.

The ascent of the ignorant.
Part of what Wyoming is now facing is the rise of real ignorance in the state's salon. We've gone from a rancher/lawyer dominated legislature to a Freedom Caucus one which wants to put George Wallace in the Governor's mansion, raise the Stars and Bars over the state house, and thinks science of all types is a fib.
It'd be comical if not so horrific.
This is of interest here as this ignorance is hunting the environment, and everything else.
Don't vote for those voting yes for this.
