wreckreation
n.— «The NRA didn’t explain to Harden and Eilperin what they meant by “access,” but I guessing it means motorized access, which means roads, which means the NRA still supports the biggest threat to wildlife and hunting, at least on public land in the West, poorly managed motorized use or as it’s often called, “wreckreation.”» —“Is the NRA Starting to Get It?” by Bill Schneider New West (Missoula, Montana) Feb. 15, 2007.
