| 2051 | David | Cooksey | TX | US | Hi for years this hobby has been removing Trash, Deadly items ie. Bullets, and other items of the ferrous nature which could hurt someone. No one wants too see a child goto the beach or a playground and get hurt because someone did not have the intelligence too haul off items which over time could hurt someone as they have detearated. |

| 2059 | william | mccrary | TX | US | the state of texas should issue a detecting permit to competent people that have a valid texas drivers license. |

| 2061 | Margaret | Steelhammer | TX | US | Responsable Texans that metal detect and pay taxes should also have the right to enjoy our public lands doing what we enjoy. We know how to fill in holes and pick up and carry out our trash, and alot of trash left by others using the land. Metal detecting helps the enviroment more than it hurts. All trash that we find is carried out. Unlike most of the other uses of the public land, camping, sking, fishing, hiking, etc, which is where most of the trash we take out comes from. Still they have the right to use and enjoy the lands, pertaking in their hobby and we do not? WHY??? |

| 2067 | sean | bailey | TX | US | If we are not destroying our city parks by allowing this, where is the harm in allowing us to detect in our state parks? |
| 2068 | Corey | Bolden | TX | US | I am always careful at digging and replace all the dirt like I wasn't even there. I also pick up pounds of trash each time I go out and dispose of it properly. You could say I am improving the environment. It's not like we go out there to destroy anything. I think golf tears up more ground than a few detectorists. |

| 2075 | John | Saldivar | TX | US | I would like to be able to hunt the swimming areas of Texas State Parks. I have hunted many swimming sites and have removed cans and metal objects that could easily slice someone's foot. I always discard trash in it's proper place making the swimming area alot safer. |
| 2076 | Marc | Luxemburg | TX | US | Metal detecting is a hobby, except that when we find a penny, nickle, dime, or even a quarter if we are lucky, we ALSO find buried crushed up beer cans, pull tabs, sharp objects like broken knives, glass, torn apart beer or soda cans, and when we find trash like this we collect it up and properly throw it away to help the areas stay free from trash, etc, that other people using the parks care nothing about. That is why we find trash while metal detecting. We also follow good digging ethics, no hole bigger than a couple, (2-3) of inches, and we recover the hole without anyone knowing we were ever there. |

| 2079 | Jay | Smith | TX | US | All of us detectorists follow a code of ethics when detecting. As stated by others, we go to great lengths to leave an area as pristine as we found it. |

| 2090 | Michael | Hirt | TX | US | This is insane. If we pay an entrance fee, we should be able to use the resources including metal detecting. |
| 2091 | Janice | Havens | TX | US | It would increase the availability of recreational activities for those of us with limitations,and give us an opportunity to share an activity with our grandchildren. |
| 2092 | Bill | Argo | TX | US | I would just like to remind everyone that it was a man with a detector that found the cannons of Lasalle at the site where Ft. St. Louis once stood. Nothing was torn up, the State was informed and now the general public has the chance to view these very cannon in Victoria, Texas. We who metal detect are not demons intent on tearing up the land. We are interested in preserving history. allowing metal detecting will open up new areas of history that could be enjoyed by the public for years, even centuries to come. If metal detecting is not allowed, these relics of our historical past will remain hidden beneath the earth and continue to deteroriate, never to be seen and enjoyed by anyone. I can't understand for the life of me what the State of Texas could possibly have against having a valuable resource (the metal detectorist) available to help. |

| 2098 | Matt | Campbell | TX | US | Being new to metal detecting we do bring out a lot of trash from cans to glass an bottles an just metal junk we find we always put our trash in the trash cans plus make the swimming areas safer for all users |
| 2099 | Ralph | Smith | TX | US | This is a great hobby and the State Parks should be opened up for this past time. This could be with a premit or lottery system. This will be a win - win for both sides.
Make metal detecting state parks legal! |
