An Unholy Alliance: Gun Owners And Environmentalists
A growing minority of gun owners are unhappy with Bush's environmental principles.
"...A groundswell [of] gun owners from the lower 48 are challenging the Bush administration's plan to undo protection of Alaska's Tongass and Chugach national forests by opening both to increased logging and road construction... a growing vocal minority is taking a stand on concerns they have -- from weakening water protection standards in fishable waterways, to proposals to drill for oil in what have been off-limits areas. These people want a clean and healthy environment not only for hunters and anglers, but for all Americans -- and they believe Bush is straying too far from this principle."
