Tucson man to pay back $180K after shotgun rounds sparked Molino II wildfire
The man who started a wildfire in Coronado National Forest by firing incendiary ammunition must pay back $180,000 after pleading guilty.www.azcentral.com
It looks like it started in multiple places. The rounds probably fragmented.
Seen worst at public ranges. What we need to realize is, members on this forum are the cream of the crop, in regard's to shooting safety and shooting culture.
and run for your life. Backwood & Backhood country people don’t care.
Beat me to it.... $180,000. at $200. a month ? That's 900 months. Hey; in 75 years it will be all paid off.
No Way! This is America, your debt die with you…. Yeah yeah - will & estates experts out there.
that shoot glass, containers flammable liquids, those explosive binary targets and leave big messes that makes all the normal hunters and target shooters look bad.
Well, that WAS a joke...but nowadays, who knows?
Retards? Really? Good thing this isn't a woke site. Anyway, so, uh, wait, you're referring to Tannerite? Lots of responsible shooters use it -- I use it frequently (usually on private property), and so do a lot of other THR members -- and so long as you police up your target area after you're done, there's absolutely no problem with using this stuff. For the record, I've also been know to use tracers. But only after it's been raining and the grass and foliage is wet (which is, after all, most of the time up here in the PNW).
Seriously? The backwoods people probably care more about the land and what lives on it than the "cream of the crop" who dwell in the cities and suburbs. Yea, "Bubbas" exist, but how about you don't paint us all with a broad brush.
I grow up in the backwoods & backhood. Sandhills of North Carolina. unless it was a private land owner, lots of them (including me when younger) didn’t care about the land, just dumped and tore it up
That hasn't been my experience; not saying it isn't true. I've lived in the "backwoods" all my life and I can tell you that most folks (at least around here) do care about the land, and wouldn't do anything so foolish as the subject of the OP. Again, "Bubba" does rear his ugly head at times but not as often as you'd think.
even the public shooting lands and hunting lands are tore up here in Washington State.
I don't have a problem using that stuff reasonably and cleaning it up. But there has been ranges around here damage by using to much of it and blowing up target racks and other damage. Plus most ranges around here have neighbors that are used to the sound of gunfire and are ok with it. But you get some huge explosions then the police get called and someone wants to shut the range down.
