As a young man, I knew this "old" dude (40s or 50s I guess) that ran a crack house. He was a jehovahs witness, only one I have known personally. It was weird. Real nice dude other than being a crackhead...like, the world's most polite crack dealer.

Our county's most famous grower was a JW. He came around the house passing out pamphlets one day, and I so wanted to ask him about some seeds. But he had 3 others with him, so I just told them I was already full, didn't need anymore religion.

I shit on cops a lot, and rightfully so. Park ranger cops fall way outside that and I bear them no ill will. Think their great, never had a bad run in.

Did see them bust some dudes trying to climb the red rocks that you can't climb on at red rocks, was alright with that. People tend to trash nature and it's already jam packed all the time so at risk.

Edit: just mention it as a park ranger got shot outside RMNP, will be alright.

Some of them are really cool. But a lot of thru hikers have issues in National Parks getting permits. Then they get chased out of the park in the middle of the night for not having the right permits. And since hikers are walking, it can be several hours to walk off the park, just to walk back on in the morning, because that is where the trail is. Tapeworm had these issues in Glacier NP just two days from finishing the CDT.

I'll be damned, no clue. Honestly in somewhere like RMNP, I would kind of be alright with that sort of action. The place is a zoo and has major issues with crowding. Granted it's big, so if they went way in whatever, but I do get it. Other national parks are nowhere near as crowded so that seems bogus.

The thing is those guys have been walking that trail for over 2000 miles, then when they get to the end of the trail, suddenly there are no camping spots open for them. Camping at Baxter State Park at the end of the AT is a pain in the ass too.

As far as I know, thru hikers get free permits on all trails except where the AT goes through GSMNP, and it cost 20 bucks. Their rules are kind of crazy too. You have to sleep in a shelter unless it is full, then you can tent. But if a section hiker comes in at 10 o'clock he gets a spot in the shelter and the thru hiker has to get up and go outside to pitch his tent. Luckily you have to get done with the park in eight nights, so this doesn't last long.

And Jesus. Don’t forget about Jesus.

There are many ways to politicize a homeless man with mental health issues burning a Christmas tree down. Fox went with war on Christmas.

Hilarious and sad.

It would be interesting to figure out where that Homeless man was from originally.
