Stop building in the desert. Our wild life have no where safe to go. Stop trying to turn this beautiful place into another Los Angeles. Us old timers that grew up here love the wild life, seeing the stars at night, the quiet and peacefulness of it all.
Sick of seeing the homeless, trash, graffiti, noise and violence .
