This video was shot in Canada, but it applies in this country also...
Now I will agree fully in the "tread lightly" pact, myself and the guys I trail camp with or wheel with always pack in and pack out. And I do admit, I have on more than one occasion taken my time and cleaned up and hauled trash from other people out of wilderness areas. But...
I don't have an authority problem, authority has a ME problem..
If those who are agents in government get there power from ONLY those who consent to it; who are the people voting for these measures to be taken? Seems to me yet another over reach of self-proclaimed authority.
If you receive your power from the people and are working as public servants; why the attitudes that "We The People" somehow OWE you people in public office something or that we must bend to your will. I swear the people of this nation better pick up a god damn history book and read their federal and State Constitutions again..!
