UN Agenda 21 Fighter Jailed

Jose Antonio Fernandez, 54, found Tuesday that fighting Agenda 21 by stepping up to a microphone and threatening to shoot Miami-Dade County Commission members and the mayor lands a guy in jail.  

Fernandez warned at a public meeting that if the county took his property, he’d have the constitutional “right to shoot every one of you.”

According to the Miami Herald, Fernandez, sporting a prominent grey beard and T-shirt reading No to United Nations Agenda 21, accused the commission of “confiscating the land of small farmers.”

“You confiscated my land already,” he said. ”Now you want my house. I came here to tell you in public, if you sell my house, the ‘bleep’ is going to hit the fan!”

“And I’m going to board the entire house with me inside.”

Two sergeants-at-arms moved to either side of Fernandez. promptly escorted him out of the commission chambers and handcuffed him – with Fernandez still yelling, “Enough is enough! This is America!”

Miami-Dade Police Department slapped him with 13 felony charges of threatening to harm a public servant – one for each of the 12 commissioners present and for Mayor Carlos Gimenez plus a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct. Wednesday, Fernandez remained in jail on a $97,500 bond. His public defender declined to comment at this time.

“Fernandez lives just outside a rural South Miami-Dade enclave locked in legal battles with county environmental regulators over wetlands violations,” reported the Miami Herald. “The small nurseries and farms just east of the Everglades and west of Krome Avenue in the Las Palmas community – known as the 8 ½ Square Mile Area – have repeatedly run afoul of the Division of Environmental Resources Management.”

A judge ruled in 2011 that Fernandez’s nursery – which was on a separate property from his home – owed the county $316,000 in restitution that Miami-Dade has yet to receive.

The home, which is not in Fernandez’s name, is scheduled to be sold in a foreclosure auction this month.

An undated photo in Google Maps purportedly of Fernandez’s home shows a sign affixed to a tree outside that reads, “DERM must be stopped.”

“I dare you to sell my house,” Fernandez told commissioners Tuesday.

“You have become tyrants. You have become a corrupted government. You have destroyed my family. And hundreds of families.

“And I said: Enough. I am the people. And the time that you sell the house, my constitution gives me the right to shoot every one of you,” he concluded, pointing at the commissioners.

“Shoot ‘em.”
