It's the multi use thing that hangs me up. My dad is in a wheelchair and the only way he sees any land is out the window. If tawney had his way the whole place would be wilderness and guys like dad get screwed.
I had it out with BHA over their push for more national parks. We can't hunt 99% of all park land, so why push for it. The response was that it gives animals a safe place to retreat.....I responded that private land does the same. They of course responded that private land could be hunted and I of course brought up the increased level of predation in the parks by canines and bears.
