There's something uniquely evil about locking the public out of public lands.

I'm looking at you, too, Vinod Khosla.

There's so much biased journalism that you really have to read things twice before using words like "evil".

> locked out of ONE OF THE ONLY western access roads

So not locked out. And accessible from all 4 orientations.

(edit: lol, break the rules and downvote all you want. this site loves dishonest journalism if it confirms their wrong biases)

not completely locked out of access to the area, but locked out of using one of the only available road to that area.

So not locked out of the area by any stretch of the imagination and no evil was done.

Or just use one of the other still accessible western roads.
