Subject: [RC] poll on equestrian land
access-VOTE YES_PLEASE-NOW
"Polls"
like this are meaningless. They aren't "polls" at all. If anything,
they are just measures of how large each faction's email network
is.
Everybody knows they are meaningless: the newspaper
holding the "poll," and most particularly the land managers making
the decision (which evidently has already been made and was favorable to
equestrians).
The Shawnee National Forest has been a bloodbath for
years now between one particularly militant group of hikers who
are willing to use lawsuits against the Forest Service as their chief
weapon whenever it makes a decision for another user group that they don't
approve of.
Yeah, sure, I'll go to the page and click the box, but I
don't think it accomplishes anything real.
