you do have a point on the being foolish part, however we have already compromised much , much more then we ever should have . anyone who thinks the antis will ever be happy with anything short of bondage is a fool at best.Things we could be doing to protect our hunting heritage:
-venison diplomacy
-educating non hunters about hunting practices
-consider giving up inhumane, deeply unpopular, or overwhelmingly offensive legal hunting methods
-elect pro hunting and pro public access candidates. Republicans are overwhelmingly pro
gun but are usually also anti public access As a consequence of being pro business and pro economy.
what we are doing that works against our hunting heritage:
-thinking hunting is a right instead of a privilege. Gun ownership is a right, but we confuse the two.
-thinking we don't rely on public endorsement to be able to hunt
-Blindly supporting one political party instead of looking at the issues
-irresponsible, offensive, and insensitive flaunting of 2nd amendment rights. Hunting has long been a victim of anti gun movement, and this is not the liberal elite's fault. It's mainly our fault for acting like a bunch of foolish, arrogant a-holes.
as to blindly supporting one party...…. I can't speak for others but when I support the repubs it is not blindly. there is an awefull lot I hate about repubs but there is also much I approve of .
I can honestly say there is nothing about the democrat platform I LIKE and I have never in my lifetime seen a democrat candidate whose existence I approve of. that may be a "foolish thing to say but it is the Gods honest truth also.
