Todd, Salmo

Am I surprised at your replies?

Not at all!

In fact, I pretty much expected that you both would be one of the first ones to jump on me about this post! I am still not clear about your background Todd. So let's establish that now. Are you a licensed attorney in Washington State? If not, are you a Par legal in this state? Or are you just a legal adviser with some kind of degree in law? Which one are you? Have you ever represented anyone legally in the state of Washington? Or do you just interpolate your own opinions on state and federal law? This is not a pesonal attack, Its only fair to kown who I am up against in this debate! Your profile does not reveal that, an you have never made it clear to me.

Salmo, I know who you are, and I also know your "back ground", so I also know where you are at on this issue. (nothing personal salmo) and know how all of this could affect you in the future if things changed. It would totally blow both of you guys away if the tribes were not the "only ones" to hold "fishing rights!

I am certainly not an attorney, nor am I a legal aid, or advisor, but I do have pretty good common sense! After all, isn't that what out laws is based on . . . two persons" with common sense?

I understand why both of you (Todd, and Salmo G) continually try to attempt to "Cloud" this issue with the rights of the Indians. The simple fact remains that they ( the indians) have their rights, and we have our "rights". So why do you guys always attempt to cloud this issue with that? Are you guys just scared that maybe "we all" may someday join together and change the things that both of you preach that are so dearly to your hearts? Times are indeed a changing, and it sounds like it isn't changing in the way that either of you guys want it to!

It could just happen; if you guys keep knocking other peoples views who oppose your own views or positions!

Both of you guys are missing the point!

Round 2?

PS; I have a roten cold and I am not going to stay up much longer tonight!
