Re: [RC] Our land - Lynne Glazer

All, righty now-- stop it please.  Terry, stop pulling quotes out of context.  And Carrie, reacting to a message that was addressed to Terry makes you look bad.

Can we just GIVE IT A REST?  The whole wild horse thing?  Geez, once a year oughta be enough but we JUST did this!  I'd rather see packing pistols, loose dogs, or even GENERATORS than this--we're not gonna solve it here, and there are plenty of other discussion sites for this!

Terry, the land belongs to ALL of us.  That means riders, ranchers, loggers, miners, hikers, EVERYBODY.  You can't just claim it for YOUR use as a rider--we ALL have a right to use it wisely.  We are ALL members of the public--and those who make a living on public land (and pay for the privilege of doing so) also serve the WHOLE public by what they produce.
 
By what magic is YOUR preferred use of OUR land more "right" than the uses to which it is put by other members of the public who "own" it just as much as you do?

(who not only rides on public lands, but also uses the products that are produced there by other members of the PUBLIC who "owns" it--as does Terry, even though she apparently isn't willing to admit it)


            Oh, yeah--don't ride on it either, then--after all, it's "our" land, and we need to kick everybody off of it, according to you.

Huh??? Where did you pull that from?   Riding on "our" land is what we should be able to do! Why do you ride endurance, if not for the wild erness experience?
