Uh...ok!?
I personally think this is a great idea. As a fan of target shooting I sometimes try and find somewhere in the woods somewhere to shoot and it's hard to find a place where it will be safe. This will help eliminate shot up signs and busted glass in the woods and on the back trails. Let's hurry and make this happen!

Well, that is a good example of the type of drivers there are around here. I have never seen so many people DISOBEY the law in my life. I have come close to getting hit from behind twice and I was STOPPED. There are a lot of bad drivers around here.

Very nice article, unfortunately pretty soon the morons are going to start blaming the rainfall on "global warming." Only morons believe global has anything to do with humanity, or humans can do anything about it. Imbeciles...all of 'em.
