Tom Morello was right.
And now, we are living in the bonafide Rage Against the Machine era.

My kids golf at a private golf course.

They have never golfed at the public course, and they have no plans to, but I still want the public course to pay for their private memberships.

Now you know how school vouchers work.

We recently ran the piece concerning coyotes & some of the responses were unbelievable. The psychopathic hatred of wildlife is so ingrained in some of these messages I wonder if the people making them realize what they sound like.

Last I looked plastic outweighed plankton in the oceans by about 17:1, according to this ↓ livestock outweighs wildlife by 13:1.

This can't go on.

Let's stop prioritizing the subsidized destruction of the West and start prioritizing wildlife safe public lands.
