And who cleans up the non-biodegradable junk left behind?
Let me guess, everyone taking junk always picks up after themselves. How silly of me...I forgot.
I seldom say something dissenting but taking junk out in the wild, shooting it and leaving it lay is inconsiderate and irresponsible and it's acts like that that give decent shooters and gun owners a bad reputation in many parts of the country.
I applaud the posters in here that, at least, mentioned such degradable items such as cookies, crackers, charcoal, and, in part, even balloons that leave very little debris.
It's hard not to see old washers and dryers, doors, propane tanks, lawn mowers, pots and pans, steel plating, etc. that have been shot up and will lay there until time immortal.
In fact, here, the BLM and Arizona State are thinking of passing state laws prohibiting 'open shooting' because of just this type of thing.
And after seeing many of the shooting sites and the garbage left behind I can't say I blame them......let the shooters be blamed.
The VFW/4WD Club (combined effort) I belong to just recently voted to NOT continue it's quarterly practice of going out with a roll off container and cleaning up various sites in the desert areas north of Phoenix.
It's just becoming a task that just can't be kept up with.
Sad, sad, sad.
OK, I've made my point but it's certainly no rant. I'm just telling it as it is.
