Of course not.
Instead, I support and participate in attempts to establish new equestrian
trails, and maintain old ones, in my area. I also support political
candidates who favor a balance between needed development and the establishment
of legally protected open-space where I can ride my horse. People need
places to live. They also need places to play, places to reconnect with
the "natural world." What I don't support is locking up public
land against the "intrusions" of man. I support well-thought
out development that minimizes or eliminates negative impact on the
environment, but meets the needs of humanity. In this regard, I support
the tapping of petroleum from oil basins in Alaska,
California, Utah and elsewhere. We can do it, and
have done it, with minimal impact on the environment. In short, I support
Angie's appeal for a balance with nature in human affairs.

Do you applaud and cheer
every new subdivision that cuts off a ride you used to be able to make?
