Federal land is for the people, and handing this parcel to the county is just good, practical governance.

Local ownership could boost Perry County, but only if it doesn’t turn into a regulatory free-for-all.

Small parcel, local hands—seems harmless, but let's not set a precedent that leads to forest fragmentation.

If we keep handing over federal land without strings, soon there'll be nothing left to protect.

Finally, some common sense—letting locals manage land beats bureaucratic gridlock any day.

Turning public land into a free giveaway? That's just privatization dressed as 'local control.'

Why fund local governments properly when we can just sell them the forest pieces? Great strategy... if you love short-term thinking.

It’s a blip on the map, but we’ve seen small giveaways grow into big headaches before.

Cut the red tape and let Perry County get to work; they know their woods better than distant officials.
