Pooping in public lands in the desert is just as inappropriate as pooping in your neighborhood park, especially when people not only leave their piles of crap there but also mounds of used toilet paper. Then tack on the fact that poop and toilet paper don't decompose in the desert climate and stay there a long, long, time. If people had common sense enough not to do it, then there wouldn't be an issue; however, they don't, and they crap all over the place, and it has to be criminalized.

I refuse to believe that that is a misdemeanor. That's just ridiculous.
