I haven't read the article yet, but I already know what the biggest threat is: It's hunters and trappers who don't vote.  If everyone who hunts and traps voted we would not have the situations that we are now faced with.

You've got that right! 

Based on the voter turnout statistics, over 100,000 licensed Washington hunters may not have voted in the primary elections.  Those who don't vote are giving the "antis" just what they want.

http://vote.wa.gov/results/current/Turnout.html
Only 38.48% of registered voters actually voted in the primary elections.  If all hunters had voted in the primary elections, we may have kept some undesireable candidates from making it into the general election.

Stand up for your rights and VOTEVOTE for Representatives that are committed to protecting our rights, NOT taking them away.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

 8) can someone watch that site for me since I didnt register there and see if any animal rights post over mine or makes any comment. I postes something that I think reflects the truth and would be interested in seeing what some anti might say to it.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
