Sen. Kevin Ranker
« on: September 29, 2012, 01:36:36 PM »
Read below.  We should all email him and educate him on this issue.  Don't let the Liberal A$$ raise hell, we need to write him on this issue.   :bash: :bash: 

The chairman of the state Senate committee that oversees Washington's Department of Fish & Wildlife tells NBC News that the killing of a gray wolf pack in recent days was "inexcusable" and that he is demanding answers about why the agency thought it was necessary. 

"I find it inexcusable that we allowed ourselves to get to a place where killing the entire pack was the necessary decision when other non-lethal options – within the department and with ranchers – were not totally exhausted first," said Sen. Kevin Ranker, chair of the Senate Natural Resources and Marine Waters Committee.

"I find it ironic that the attacks on livestock that caused this situation ... took place on a ranch that has been outspoken about the removal of the pack and has refused to work with the department to implement prevention measures successfully adopted by other ranchers," he added.

Since when does a rancher have to work with the state to protect his herd?  If Ranker wants wolves around let him pay the damages out of his pocket.

Maybe he thinks the rancher should have killed them all?  :mgun: I personally love it when politicians think they need to insert themselves in places they aren't needed.

Senator Ranker is up for re-election and his opponent is John Swapp http://www.swappforsenate.com/contact.html who I emailed to find out his positions on many issues of concern to our members. I am anxious to see if I get a reply and what it will be.


Quote
Dear Mr Swapp,
I operate a Washington based online hunting forum www.hunting-washington.com which members are hunters, fishers, and outdoors people. We have a number of members in the legislative district where you are running for election to the senate.

Many of our members are quite unhappy with the position that Senator Ranker has taken regarding removal of the wolf pack that has been attacking and eating cattle in Stevens County.

I would like to ask what your position is regarding removal of that wolf pack and on wolf management in general.

I would also like to ask about your position on the 2nd Amendment and on hunting in Washington State.

I would like to post your comments on our forum for our 11,800+ members and guests to read. Feel free to call me if you wish at (509) 684-6294.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Best Regards,
Americans are systematically advocating, legislating, and voting away each others rights. Support all user groups & quit losing opportunity!

Well if he wants them relocated, let's get them relocated to his backyard and see the *censored* that a pack would stir up in the heavily populated area. After all wolves were here first, right?
