re: frick Trump doing irreversible damage to nature

Exactly. I don't get not being a supporter of wilderness as public land, in this way it belongs to all of us. Keep the wild west wild. I get that the federal gov is the big bad boogeyman, but keeping these lands federal means we all have access to them, and have a say in how they are managed.

These places will get gobbled up and closed off in a heartbeat if they're sold. I wish we had more public wilderness like this in the south.. Would have way more hunting opportunities.
