The argument for, against, or indifferent whether it's quads, guns, pot, abortion, pit bulls, immigrants or whatever subject always runs into the wall of public opinion, right or wrong does not matter, majority rules. All one can do to support their particular agenda or right to use/own whatever is to educate the public so they support your particular interest. The best way to do this is by education and setting an example that is positive and will be viewed by the majority as a good thing not a bad thing. Unfortunately as it stands right now the tide against unrestricted off road machine use of all types is becoming viewed as negative by more and more people.
Right or wrong the best marketer wins the vote. We see this all the time in politics. Presently the OHV community is not being successful at selling themselves in a positive light, it has become a political issue. We all know where that leads.
