Santa Rosa Island as a hunting ground for veterans?
Would you like your tax dollars to fund a hunting area for veterans on an island that is part of Channel Islands National Park? Republican Representative Duncan Hunter from San Diego would like that to happen. I'm in the process of letting my feelings be known to the National Park Service and to various other agencies and legislators.
I once supported the charitable activities of Paralyzed Veterans of America, whose officials seem to be in favor of the hunting, at least according to the article I've linked to in the previous paragraph. That organization will receive no further support from me.
I believe this is an inappropriate use of taxpayer money. Whether you agree with me or have other feelings, please take time to learn about this issue from several sources and then make your feelings known to appropriate individuals and agencies.
