Kevin, I do not take a gun to the springs so don't imply that I do. I am not a follower of religions so don't propose that I sit in the hills reading a bible. I speak my mind as an individual so don' t also lump me into a group, which supposes that I agree with all they say. Don't preach to me about responsiblility for other peoples actions at the springs and the trouble they bring. I've done more careing things down there to date, than you will ever do in your life, and that doesn't count what I will continue to do in the future. The TRUTH is that by far, the vast majority of the people who cause trouble at DCHS go through the Bowen Ranch. Thats reality. Very few people use the open routes to access the springs. Its a lame, nonsense argument you make that somehow, the people that go around the ranch are the scum of the earth bent on destroying the springs, and that the people that pass through the Bowen Ranch gate have halos on thier heads and a secure place in heaven. I frequent the open routes and know the truth. Nobody here has proposed that Castro is commiting every crime discussed, all in one night. That argument is senseless. The things discussed here have happened over many years. I've heard countless accounts from people at the springs about Castro's negative behaviour across the span of time he has resided at the ranch. In your mind I suppose its all a grand illusion and huge collective vendetta. You have the blinders on that Castro has carefully crafted for you. Those of us outside the vision of your limited field of view know the bigger picture of what has gone on. So you propose to know everything that Castro does. Are you with him 24/7 or maybe you think you are omnipresent. In case you are so sheltered in your existance to know it, there are many people in this world that wear the facade of a smile, while within them is another essence, disturbed and menacing. These people are excellant actors and at times thier other lives are discovered at the complete supprise of those close to them that assumed them to be something very differant. This is a reality that occurs often in life. I don't think its clear that Gary crossed your property when Pete dropped him off. Were you standing there with a GPS and do you have pictures of Gary which show him to have been on your property that day. Even if he was, does this give Castro your neighbor the right to shoot out in Gary's direction with a weapon. Of course not. Pete is now reaping Castro's wrath because why, because he gave somebody a ride on the Bowen Ranch Road. Like I said before to someone who frequents this forum, you cross Castro, don't play by his rules, and you can kiss your Bowen Ranch access goodbye. Don't imagine that all who go through the Bowen Ranch see Castro as a guy who's mision in life is to do good deeds, or a person who has never hurt a fly. They realise fully that to speak up, or disagree would bring them the same reward as what occured to Pete recently, no Bowen Ranch access. Then these people would have to deal with the fun out on the open routes. Thier fear of this prospect keeps them silent. That is reality. Its like when the wicked witch was runnin that castle in the Wizard of Oz, no one complaining while she was runnin the show. What happened when she was out of the picture, any complaints. Dorthy who was being pursued relentlessly by the castle gaurds suddenly becomes the hero for dispatching the witch. As it goes in OZ, so it goes in life!
