Chippewa tribe to allow spotlighting.

Well that's one way to create a safety hazzard and promote poaching.

Indians were using spotlights to hunt long before the white man showed up and ruined everything. I don't see a problem.

It's not hunting, it's shooting.

I wonder if they were using LED or halogen back in the old days?

 

[Rancho Loco]

The biggest one your dog cart could carry.

 

[mtmander]

I bet they used halogen mounted to their pickup

 

[Rat Fink]

Did they bring the technology with them over the Bering Land Bridge?

So everyone is just as upset about spotlighting the wolves at night too, right?

 

[VAspeedgoat]

Was a million candle spotlight really using a million candles back then?

In the UK hunting deer at night with artificial light is banned except in very rare circumstances, i think only 2 licences were issued in the whole of England in 2014.
But in the past you could see where this illegal activity was happening, you can't really hide spotlight, you can see it for miles.
However, there is a huge problem recently with night vision equipment, they do it under the guise of 'fox control' which is legal.
You just don't know they are around, couple it with sound moderators and the deer don't stand a chance.

It's not hunting, it's shooting.

Kind of like shooting deer at 800 yards.

If that's what they want to do let them go ahead, as long as it stays on the reservation. Now they can shoot 365/24/7.

 

[idahojoe]

That's bullshit

Don't have a problem with them doing it, just that they need to manufacture their own weaponry, stay totally in authentic threads. Then when they are original in person, and atire, I'll agree with the intent of the treaties.

If you read the second paragraph you will see it is not on the reservation. They should be ashamed of themselves.

 

[Wapiti Warrior]

So are they going to say it is party of the treaty and do it on public land too?

Along with a 300 RUM or a 338 LAPUA?
