Couple of years ago where I live, the Forest Service wanted to thin "tracts" as an experimental project. The Sierra Club sat down with the Forest Service and came up with the plan, only to have these jerks from NM file a lawsuit that stopped it.
The same people threatened to sue the ADOT because the DOT was wanted to widen a road. FIVE trees would have needed to be taken down. The SWFA threatened a lawsuit. The plans to widen the road were dropped.
These people are *truly* dangerous nuts. They aren't as visible as the Sierra Club (yet) but far, far more unreasonable.
