    Letter to The EditorSo…  you’re opening the forest up?!?   Please see the attached photos I took in the area between Crescent Moon Ranch and my neighborhood, Cathedral Vista subdivision.  Recent rain will not bring these trees back to life, leaving us at extreme risk of fire.  A few neighbors and I fought a forest fire already on 6-8-21 a few hundred yards from here.  Apparently human caused.

    Opening this area of National Forest is insane!  Before you open it, get some resources in here to remove all the dead trees, brush and grass!  Anything short of that is criminal neglect.

      I also disagree with the opening of the Forests at this time.
      I would like to add that I was at Banjo Bills the week before the closure, and All the bar-b-ques were open and ready for use by anyone. A bit insane I think.

      I also agree that the NFS should not be opening the forest in the midst of a terrible drought. Dead vegetation, including trees, is only one problem. Thoughtless hikers, especially those not familiar with drought, and its demands on hikers, are problematic in the forest now, especially. I implore the NFS to close the forest until lit is truly safe for humans to be in it.


    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
