I completely agree with you. The level of consideration of others is the issue. Part of the problem of "public" and free is that some people don't share with us a sense of responsibility for the lake. To me, it is a treasure. Not infinite, but vulnerable. And it is distressing to sit by helplessly as its pristine, natural beauty is destroyed by garbage, noise, fuel, exhaust, and development. If you look to older countries, you notice that sooner or later people realize that their water and their land are not expendable; so they take action to keep the idiots off it. We may not live to see it here in Alabama, but it will happen. I wish we could voluntarily de-idiot-ify the lake sooner rather than later. By no means do I think campers are the source of the problem. It's folks with a mentality to kill a goose or a goat or to mindlessly and noisily destroy something beautiful just for a thrill. People who are doing that kind of thing should be fined and kicked to the curb. Those of us who do feel some sense of responsibility for our lake need to take a stand against the "anything goes" attitude that some bring to this lake.
ps--we'll know in a minute if that dude is ltl
