Have something to get off your chest? Operators are standing by.
I was recently quoted in the SF chronicle about being bitten twice by dogs, once in the GGNRA.
However, what I really wanted the public to know, (which the writer did not include in the story) was about the vandalism that occurred sometime on Sunday sometime in the early hours.
I actually attended the public meeting about dog management in the GGNRA at SF State this past saturday. At that meeting, I signed in and wrote my address down. There were several people around me when I was writing. I regret doing this now, but as I signed in, I thanked the park ranger and said that I completely supported the preferred alternative.
Someone who is anti-leash must have heard and looked at my name and address, because the next day I found that my door was smeared with dog poop.
I was totally shocked and hurt by it. I was not planning to go to the second meeting but went to inform the rangers that there should be better security and privacy measures in the future.
I then also saw a reported and talked with him briefly about the incident. I suspect that others have probably experienced vandalism as well and I think it is important that the public know that there are individuals that are taking this too far.
I also want other to know that they have to be careful and should not share their personal information. I am hoping that you may be able to share my story and discourage this type of behavior from happening on either side of the argument.
