Disgusting. The American addiction to laws, regulation, and prohibition cannot even be escaped in our National Forests. I hike, bike, and OHV through Pike often, and each year see more signs of holier-than-thou planners & over-the-top naturalists. Should we not have some place where we can retreat from these urbanites? Perhaps if these people knew how friendly and courteous most OHV riders are, they would understand how haughty and unfriendly they are themselves.
Sure, good idea, but... this entire article is about you patting yourself on the back. The joke wasn't funny enough in real life, so you brought it online and went trolling for compliments. That's sad.
Re: “Locally, fears of 'socialism'”
You interviewed people outside Walmart and found right-leaning opinions? Seriously? Wow.
I'm surprised that the woman quoted early in the article managed to italicize a spoken word. Next time, I recommend the author go just a bit farther and add "dagum" to the quotes of those they wish to portray as ignorant.
