More bullshit from anti-government goons.

SALT LAKE CITY, May 10 (UPI) --Protesters who say the Bureau of Land Management has no right to criminalize use of ATVs in Utah's Recapture Canyon plan to demonstrate today by illegally riding their vehicles through the protected land - a move that has drawn the ire of Native Americans and displaced a veterans retreat.
"It is sad that irreplaceable treasures of importance to all Americans would be sacrificed on the altar of anti-government fervor," Jerry Spangler, executive director of the Colorado Plateau Archaeological Alliance said in a statement. "It is worse that protesters would be so blinded to their own insensitivity as to what others consider to be sacred treasures of their past."

Willie Grayeyes, chair of a nonprofit that lobbies to protect Navajo land, was offended at both the protesters' dismissive attitude toward Native American culture and their disrespect for the American veterans who had to move their long-scheduled retreat to ensure it could be held in peace.
