Ten to fifteen years you guys are way too optimistic

No, I think that you are just to pessimistic  :chuckle:

And I think that the idea of having seperate counties, controlling there wolf problems would be awesome. If the majority of people in King county want them, then dump them in King county. Let the wolves run through Olympia, and see how they like.

I am a nay sayer and voted for never, look at what the state has done to bear and cougar hunting. Then look at all the other states that have gone through the process, outside sources sue as soon as hunting is even mentioned. Add that with the brain dead idiots in king county with lots of money, you will have no hunting period. wolves will wipe out the game, and run the country side, hunting will be shut down and the department of fish and wildlife will transform into a animal control unit to take care of problem animals. While those of us that can cry, pack our stuff and move. I have heard the chatter of the anti's and they think this is a way to end hunting forever, bring all the predator populations up, and then game populations will fall to the point where they have to close down hunting, once this happens the predator populations will drop and everything will stabilize with nothing for man to take.  :bash: :bash: pay attention guys if we don't make our stand along with the cattlemen this very well could happen.

I hate to say it, but in this left wing ass state I could see it going that way.  If the east side could split into a seperate state I would be moving, but as it sits the I-5 corridor runs politics for the rest of the state.

2-3 years to be delisted then another 2-3 years in court then maybe just maybe we will be able to hunt them. the big question  is how much will it cost

You can shoot wolves now if you wish, but it may be illegal under certain circumstances.

If a wolf is shot in the woods but nobody is around to see it...was a crime committed?

The wolves are trying hard to advance the time frame, McIrvins lost another calf yesterday.

Any body know what the current "confirmed" count is? Curious to know how many more we need before the delisting process begins.

I am in King County and hate this crap. If I could make the money I do on the wetside we would move in in a heartbeat.

You may think most in King county want them, but the people I know do not. Now, the politicians and WDFW may want them. But if we could get a real movement to get rid of the Dems it would be so different......

Ok rant over. Already know there have been sightings up in Skagit........time to be silent and quick.

Hate to say it, but if the lawmakers can't get it right, we should.
We don't blame cars for drunk drivers......Why blame guns for violent people...
