I kind of like it. It is beautifully placed, the scale of it is just right, not too big.
 
The apes are all over it. If the BLM doesn't take it soon, someone with a drill and the desire for some great yard art will.

I do think he should pay to have it removed now that it is getting damaged.
He had his fun, it had the impact he wanted.
Other artists have done similar things, most on a much bigger scale re: the Spiral Jetty.

Right? They should see the work we all do over in the Guess the Spot threads. Looks we've got some prime candidates for NSA employment here.

Couple other tidbits that I'm not sure have been posted yet...

1) The original photos and videos from the DPS crew
2) BLM confirmed that they are conducting an investigation. Also, they claim jurisdiction over aliens. Bold strategy, Cotton.

"Although we can't comment on active investigations, we would like to remind public land visitors that using, occupying, or developing the public lands or their resources without a required authorization is illegal, no matter what planet you are from."
