Sportsmen get riled about anti-access vote

[Sytes]

...Sorry for the long rant. I am just fed up with talking politicos trying to bullship me about the welfare given to gas and oil, while my favorite hunting areas get paved, plowed, and plucked so oil companies can enjoy even more subsidies all in the spirit of lower prices, which really seem to be expressed in the form of higher oil company profits...

...Maybe I am in the minority, but would pay more for gas and oil if it means my kid and grandkids get the same hunting and fishing opportunities that I had. We are already screwing them by mortgaging their future. Least we can do is leave them a few acres to hunt and fish.

This - hits the nail on the head. Politics aside, this is what means most to myself and my family, and theirs, and theirs... and theirs.
