This guy needs to be known and ultimately stopped. Getting the word out is key.

I'm a "local" and have been watching this for 7 years from a highliner/climber perspective and as a developer/re-bolter in both, public lands recreation advocate,  LNT enthusiast, mega bolt nerd, and concerned user. 

The most accurate and constructive comments are, as usual, those from Max T. Read those twice and gloss over the rest.

Folks, for what it's worth, if you don't like the petition – just don't sign it or offer alternative non-violent non-escalative solutions. All the petty trolling and excessive angst just dilutes the helpful folks that are looking for constructive solutions. Yes, I know "this is MP".

Unless he is walking or biking across the country, it seems there is a simple solution here

Over 4000 people are now aware of Shawn Snyder and his ill intentions.

But only 605 have signed, what gives?

If you looked and didn't sign you are complicit with Shawn's actions. It only takes a second to sign the petition.

Thanks for starting the petition. I signed it. It may do nothing but doesn't hurt. If this is presented to the next official that deals with him it will help them see it is not an isolated incident. This is repetitive destructive behavior that many people find out of line.

i think lots of people fear putting their names to something--like MP usernames for example. 

I signed it with my MP user name.

Some folks worry about confusion between myself and another strong climber with less hair, so I signed it as him to finally make our union as one.

You have a balding doppelgänger?!  Who is this follicle challenged, handsome person?

It seems like many are looking for a solution somewhere between "meaningless internet petition" and "slash his tires". Perhaps a GoFundMe-style fundraiser for Central Oregon climbers/High Desert Climbers Alliance would provide a way for the climbing community to support those affected by Shawn's rampages?

Follicle challenged is so triggering, dude, we in the community prefer to identify as hair unencumbered. Thank you.

That is hair appropriation. You can’t use that phrase.

You know, Chad, I myself dabbled in hair appropriation once. Not in 'Nam of course.

I'm completely unsurprised you would be rooting for a guy with numerous burglary and theft charges as well as attempted assault with a hammer caught on video. Stay classy!

This has been one hell of a chit show to read.

Soloing should be illegal.  Pro life!
