I didn't miss your point.
You may be the exception about washing the snag rag every day. Quite often people who use them don't wash them daily like you allegedly do, and there's a sour nasty smell associated with their kitchen sink area due to the lack of hygiene. And just like many offensive odors, if you are around it enough, you tend to get used to it. Your home may smell bad to your friends, but you can't smell anything.
Odors like that bother me (germs and bacteria will thrive in wet rags and it can happen within just a few hours), and it irritates me to see snag rags laying in sinks, so I use brushes, and frequently run them in the dishwasher when they get dirty.
See, not only do we have a washing machine, we have a dishwasher too. :booboo:

no suspicious vehicles that don’t get pulled over. Unsolved murders? I always like talking about this stuff from non locals.
I have visited the park over 35 times in the past. Honestly, I quit counting over 20 years ago. Geology and history buff. Family lives in Marfa. Lifelong friend (Jan) who I asked you about in the original reply has lived in Alpine for 30 years.
You don't have a monopoly on knowing the area. I've probably been going there since before you were born.
I don't know what to tell ya. On my many camping trips, I've seen traffic all hours of the night on remote roads. Probably drug trafficking and not people sneaking in to get jobs.
I had been agreeing with you on one point, but frick it. Build the wall 10 foot higher.

26-year-old Don Tate took his 5-year-old daughter Boston on a camping trip to Big Bend National Park in Brewster County, Texas. The day after they were supposed to have returned but had not, Boston’s mother and Don’s ex-wife asked Rangers at the park to issue a request to locate. Don and Boston never came out of Big Bend, not alive. Later that day, Don’s brutalized body was found. A few days after that, Boston’s burned remains were discovered in her father’s van. Investigators scrounged to find evidence and a motive, while park visitors and villagers across the Rio Grande in Mexico spoke of the involvement of drug smugglers. Later that year, in December, a scandal in neighboring Presidio County involving the son of a prominent rancher and a drug warrior sheriff further fueled the talk of traffickers executing Boston and Don.

You know a guy named Jan that lives in Alpine by any chance?
While the border in Big Bend is pretty inhospitable, I’ve seen quite a few suspicious vehicles driving those 4WD roads in the middle of the night, and there have been a few unsolved murders as well. Probably drugs and not illegals, though. Funding more enforcement isn’t a bad idea.

look up the return of the black bear to big bend natl park.
Not a fan of the bears. Go to Yellowstone or Glacier if you want bears.
The park was a much better place to visit pre the bears return. They were effectively gone for almost a hundred years.
Bears offer no redeeming benefits to this park except for the opportunity to sell Big Bend bear related t-shirts and the like.
After their “migration” into the park, the Park Service put up hundreds of ugly bear boxes in every campsite, and started levying hefty fines for leaving food items visible in your vehicles or on picnic tables for even the briefest periods of time. The bears quickly became a nuisance , wrecking things. Who would have thought?
Do cockroaches and rats migrate into a house? Same thing. They should have trapped them and sent them elsewhere when they first arrived back in the 80’s. Place hasn’t been the same since. The ranchers of the area back in the day eradicated them for a reason.

The whole “no screens” thing is nonsense. Took my gameboy everywhere back in the day.
Screens are for lazy parents who can't be bothered teaching their children the do's and don'ts of being out in public, and a good way to handicap your kids later in life, because they never learn the proper way to interact with others.
It is much healthier for kids to learn early, what good behavior in public is. However, that involves a lot of work that many of today's self centered parents seem to be shirking.

Agreed. These people would shite their pants with no law enforcement, which is what they seem to salivate over for some reason. They throw the term "bootlicker" around about as often as angry Gen Z'ers throw around "Boomer"

Just think -Someone steals your weedeater, just shoot 'em. They disrespect you on the streets, just shoot 'em. They take the last crab leg from the buffet, put a cap in their arse. That would be awesome, right?
No one to come and put you in jail, so basically no laws. A lawless "civilization."
We would either have a better "no frick around" society, or the nightmare of pure anarchy. But hey, it's totally worth that gamble to get rid of the LEO's, right?
The world would be their oyster. Or they could be dead. :lol:
Used cook sausage patties while camping using one of those flip grills over the fire. It was good.
