I think the discussion here is an interesting one. In some sense I agree with you, but that agreement is more in principal. This goes back to citizens united as a central point of contention, and one I don’t like either.
So a more active 501c4 and a PAC represents the idea that to beat...
They lobby, yes. But those are 501c3s. They have limitations on how much they can lobby and they cannot support candidates/campaigns/politicians via direct donations or political expenditures. They can’t endorse candidates.
A 501c4 can make expenditures (indirectly support candidates) and...
I’d like to see a discussion on the need for a 501c4 within the non-profit space for the hunting and angling community. Specifically, one that advocates, lobbies, and spends dollars on behalf of supporters of science based wildlife management, the North American model, and the public trust...
I wanted to circle back to this because I was not satisfied with my previous answer, and I couldn’t find the email that I thought I had. So, I did some digging and realized I stated something in correct.
The story with Lucky was that she did not contract CWD, however, she was still a one off...
I use the the salon care 40 clear with some water and submerge for 24 hrs. Then I come back and hit all the reachable places with the salon care 40 crème and a tooth brush. Then I’ll let that sit on there for at least 12 hrs. Then rinse and let dry to see how it looks.
In some sense you’re right, for you as an individual, baiting is a drop in the bucket. That’s why the baiting bans apply to large demographics of hunters, if not all, and not just a single person.
Again, you’re burying your head in the sand to justify your own action. Just be honest about it...
You could be right, but I have a hunch your FB group isnt a full representation of the hunting community in Saskatchewan. I’ve seen multiple hunters from Saskatchewan on social media and forums saying that baiting should’ve been banned when CWD showed up. Quite upset more was not done.
But to...
I would agree, how do you think it looks to the anti-hunters who are actively trying to stop your hunting when you’re willing to spread a disease so you can shoot one over a bait pile?
Do you think that helps make your argument?
Do you think there are other more productive ways to protect...
Would not surprise me one bit. No doubt in my mind whatsoever those situations increase gathering and therefore transmission.
If it’s cold enough with enough snowpack, I think there is a potential silver lining(if there is one) where some of the sick deer will die over the winter, helping...
Is baiting a right? Is that in a Sask constitution somewhere? Do folks that don’t bait have a right to do what’s best for their resource or do rights only apply to those that hunt over bait?
