[pct-l] Park Rangers

[mikey chapman]

Hello All, Ive been to Yosemite at least 30 times,and 3 of those
times,friends who were with me were flat out abused by authority.
Theres a history of overzealous Rangers there,google it.  Im sure it
has something to do with the amount of idiots who are careless and
lawless,but id say theres also a few bad apple Rangers(like any part
of society,pct).  One thing that is crazy smart,they have there own
courthouse and jail,which makes getting fined a hard thing to overcome
for the unaware. They like to hold you untill your fines are paid,or
untill you bond out,or you sit it out(hope for an O.R.,which are slim
to none there). That includes all the goodies of real jail,strip
search,bad food,and my buddy tells me you are caged like an
animal,small cage like cells. Id hate to think that money,quotas,or
advancement are related but........  Anyhow,be careful out there. Has
anyone ever been given the $5000 fine for the no bear container? How
was that handled? Oh,and alot of these offences mean lifetime bans to
the park and maybe other parks. A little food for thought,hope you
enjoyed.
