Glowball… I am with you…!
I have gone repeatedly to WDFW meetings to provide input and I am always shocked at how many hunters are willing “Cut off their nose despite their face…” (or are willing to sacrifice or give up another hunting styles season or weapon limitation)
I always try and make a statement to the audience that “We as hunter need to stand united, no matter what hunting method we have chosen other wise we will all lose in the long run!”
It is and has always been that if we as hunters are divided in our stand on an issue we will lose! There are some perfect examples in the near past… I don't trap so I will not support the trappers in their fight to defend trapping… outcome No trapping…
The thing about the King5 news article and other News stories that should PISS us all off is… that the news people don't use the correct language when presenting the story… when hunters or fishermen brake the law they are no longer hunters or fishermen they are POACHERS. This is similar to the Disney movie Bambi… when the “hunters are in the woods” and then the “hunters” start shooting anything that moved regardless of what it was, they are not hunters they are poachers… I have corrected, I can't count how many people about this fact…
Yes… I have broken the law. So, I guess everyone of YOU that drives is a criminal because I broke the law while driving… that logic doesn't make since…
My $0.02… and a bit of a rant…
