Is there a law in Washington State that says...
« on: October 20, 2012, 09:21:28 PM »
I think I may have been chasing nothing more than a wishful thought. :dunno:
Can anyone quote me verse and chapter if there is a law in Washington State that makes it unlawful to interfere with a lawful hunt?
Thanks in advance.
