...public meeting ended in White City, the angry ranchers began sounding less like noble John Ford homesteaders and more like Oliver Stone conspiracy theorists convinced the feds are on a land grab. The ranchers and loggers seem outnumbered by monument supporters (people who attended three public hearings seemed to favor the designation by a ratio of 2 to 1).
