Unfortunately I have seen evidence of this where I live. I have always clean up my remains and always follow the rules of safety but many up here do not. There have been more than one occasion where I have had to get a little...you might say...a$$holish...to a few groups for doing exactly what this article says. They bring up their garbage and leave the debris. This is why, up here at least, the sections of the lands that are owned by the timber outfits such as Roseburg Forest Products have choosen to lock all gates to and from.
I can understand banning shooting in Public National Parks. But public land, NO WAY. States like Nevada are 92% government owned land. Shooters have a responsibility to clean up after themselves as well. Shooter should always OBEY all gun safety rules. Know your target, and what is beyond it. Shooters have just as much right to use public land as anyone else, but they are RESPONSIBLE for their actions. Far more people are killed by bicycles on public land than any other cause do we ban them?
