Groups like hikers, campers, birders, etc! Instead of continually disparaging them.  Standing up for our collective rights requires MONEY!  And cooperation with other similar minded public land use  groups. MULTI USE is the key. I recently got chastised on a private Facebook blog by pointiNg this out to a Nevada Camper who tried to tell hunters, now that archery season was on, to STAY OUT!   I politely pointed out that the land is public and multi use and ALL groups must band together despite some disagreements about use with what other groups might have, and there is strength in numbers. If not, in that part of Nevada even though they might force hunters out, which won’t happen, they might be trying to camp and hike beside oil wells or uranium mines and be locked out!  We all better hang together or we’ll all hang separately!  Believe it or not, I actually think I got the point across to these so called “ environmentalists!”  We ALL should be environmentalists in one way or another!  Most of those bloggers said they never thought of things that way and at least some seemed convinced. And remember that when it seems so many of us complain, hunters are way in the MINORITY  when it comes to wanting our slice of the public land pie!  For starters, if we don’t all band together with other groups and quit bad mouthing each other, hunting will be strictly a pay to hunt thing and will never change.  Hopefully not in my lifetime...hope I’m wrong!</blockquote>
