Look lady , I'm not a miner , nor do I work for any mining company.  I'm not going to take the time to research every mine that has ever existed just to show you it can be done.  It defies logic that you think every single mine that has been operated through human history has destroyed fishing. On top of that Pebble will be the newest mine on the planet meaning it will use the most up to date safe practices known to man.   Again , if Pebble can't pass all the permitting that it will need to operate , I'm fine with that.   A while back an old time Alaskan named every stream and river in the entire Pebble region and concluded Pebble won't impact fishing at all.  That doesn't matter to the lodge owners who are the one's pushing the fight against Pebble .  That region needs jobs and Pebble will provide it. Clearly you don't care about the job losses in Alaska , or care one bit about the jobs and families Pebble will feed. Anti-Pebble supporters don't care about the facts at all.
