Response in the Petroglyph: “This
smells a lot like the $500,000 dollars the Commission promised to the Discovery
Center/Four Corners School. At the time it was said the Discovery center was
going to bring in massive amounts tourists.
If
the county wants to spend money how about picking up the bill for those who
have spent years trying to keep access open to public lands. How about picking
up the bill for the Recapture Protest, you could pay to fight the BLM over the
2009 raids, the fraudulent charges and $30,000 + thousand dollar fine two
Blanding resident received for fixing part of a trail that was legal. How about
supporting the citizens of San Juan County, instead of undermining everything
they have worked for over the years.
This marketing campaign might be great for a
private company but it is undermining everything the majority of citizens in
the county have fought against with the monument.
The
commission should have voted against it instead of endorsing. The full
responsibility for this decision falls on the Commissioners.
But
let's be honest this shouldn't be a surprise to anyone after the Four Corners School
deal, the Nature Conservancy land sale, and many other backroom deals. Many
that were addressed in the 2012 commission election and ever since but no one
cared and now here we are again!”
“Tim’s
act of civil disobedience led to a legal battle. In the case of the U.S.A. vs.
Tim DeChristopher, he faces penalties of up to 10 years in prison and $750,000
in fines. While fighting
the lawsuit, Tim co-founds a grass-roots group dedicated to defending a livable
future through non-violent action and redefines patriotism for a new
generation.”
