The BLM permit can be revoked on the basis of "discrimination by creed"(Hang Gliding) and thus end paragliding in southern Oregon.

(sample BLM permit terms)

d) Not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment during any phase of the project because of race, creed, color, sex, or national origin. You must also require subcontractors not to discriminate.

This could be the retaliation BLM is seeking against the Sugar Pine Mine.

I see no constructive purpose in this.
I would like to see the sports separated to ensure one does not exert undue influence or impose undue liability upon the other.
People still have a right to fly whatever vehicle they want.
What you don't ever want to do is think the government is going to side with you in a piss match.
It's easier for them to just get rid of both of you.
It might even be policy.
Don't go there.
