Shutdown park woes
Trouble The examples all seem to be in California for some reason....
Forum Discussion
The reason all the examples are in California is because that is where the article focused on. There are problems in other places too.
But why are things so bad in the parks in California?
I think it's simple. Just between the cities of Los Angeles, San Diego, SF/San Jose there are approx. 7.2 MILLION people within an easy days drive of multiple major National Parks. This does not include San Bernardino and Riverside Counties or the Central valley.
This is not the case in any other part of the country.
Thus the bad actors can access these parks easily. And the bad ones are attracted by the lack of enforcement and supervision.
But even at normal times things can get a bit testy in Parks where there are SO MANY people vying for a very limited amount of space.
To extrapolate this to the decline and fall of America is hyperbole.
Oh we have serious problems for sure and the lawless types whether they are Neo Nazis or overgrown children with 4 wheelers shi**ing in the open are a concern for sure...but they are not the end of civilization as we know it.
But good people need to stand up and challenge their behaviour.
