That right there is funny. I don’t care who you are.

I think Jeff Foxworthy himself might declare them honorary rednecks.

ABC also noted that one study showed "twice as many black and Hispanic Americans said they don't know what to do in national parks than whites."


Breath out, breath in.

How hard can that be to remember?

(I'd love to know how that question was stated to get that answer.)

Joel Pannell, associated director of the Sierra Club told ABC, "The outdoors and public lands suffer from the same systemic racism that the rest of our society does."


That statement demonstrates one of the main problems - progfilth believe that any disparity is the result of one and only one variable.

What is next, that white people are racist for not shopping at Sally Beauty Supply?

I’ve found it easier to just disassociate with these people and groups and do my own thing locally. They’ve not all moved this direction, but I too, went on an unfollow tear and left quite a few groups. And I wasn’t the only one.

I’m not going to support you monetarily and allow you to try and indoctrinate my children through what is supposed to be a group supporting the outdoors.

It also illustrates another point - they expect everyone to behave the same way, black or White. And you can assume they’ll use government power to ensure that.

Pee-Wee? June-Bug? That is some good old boys hanging out in the woods. I bet they listen to Hank, Jr.

Imagine it being your job to investigate whether white people are disproportionately visiting national parks.

I have spent a lot of time in the wilds hiking, climbing, skiing, and biking. I have done this in the Maine, VT, NH, NY, CO, NV, CA, WA, and OR. I have seen very few blacks as well. When discussing my activities they question my sanity. Most are not comfortable with the inherent risks and discomforts. I describe the safety systems involved, particularly with climbing. They still think I am crazy.

That is personal choice, not racism.

That’s one of the dummest “news” reports, so what!

Really working hard to find a racist issue.

Would love to see one of those big bad BLM protesters when he crossed paths with a grizzly or bison.

Thank you! Doesn’t this illustrate that we are a diverse nation? There are a million things to do and not every person has to do them all. What in the hell is wrong with that?

I guess this is where they step in to say POCs need a vacation fund given to them.
