I thought it was bad when I showed up at the local gun club I used to live within driving distance of only to find some mall ninja want to "running drills" with his AR and taking up whole shooting ranges ( there were multiple). Who want to shoot next to that? But it was not to bad because we had multiple places to safely shoot at the range.
I have since moved from that area and now must rely on public land for shooting. I find a small area near town and it is quite nice. There are multiple spots along a single dirt road. There is probably enough room for 6 different areas that people can safely shoot from.
Well yesterday I decide to take the whole family shooting. So we get there and there is a car pulled up and facing a shooting berm, I assume they are shooting at the berm. Well I pull down the road a little ways and as I am turning to park I notice they are waving at me to get my attention. So I drive down back down to them only to find out that they are not shooting the berm. Instead they are shooting down the dirt road, thus taking up the whole range. There is no where else to safely shoot at this spot. On one hand I am furious because they take up the whole range and don't have the decency to share, but on the other hand it is public land and they were there first.
