WDFW LE Great Resource for HuntWA - Please Be Respectful

[ICEMAN]

Outdoor Guardian pretty much got on here and called me a LIAR on more than one account. Yet to this day not one fact from his statements have been found to do anything but bend the facts. Funny how he blasted me on a public forum but never came back when all was said and done!

He is a crook, no if ands or butts! I want every law abiding hunter on here including mods to be aware of that. 

I put all my stuff on here for one reason so that others would learn from the hell I went through! No sir, they get no respect from me.

The day I get my rifle back that may change, but we all know that will never happen.

Good grief RT, give it a break. We have all read you opinions on this at lenght. Do we have to continue to hear it here in this thread too?

If I owned this site and had to make a decision over a random member or a WDFW LE because they couldn't get along, I'd choose the LE almost everytime.  If someone were antagonizing the professional I'd oust them post haste if they couldn't ask questions or behave in a reasonable way.

They do bring a valued service to a forum like this, where as members come and go or just rename themselves.  IMO - A warden or person like bigTex is just a little more equal than some random member.

 


And yes RT when your thing was all going down I'd have booted you, and now your jacking this thread so since you weren't booted then I'd be warning you now.

I will say BIXTEX has been a valued asset to Hunt-Wa. We have exchanged pms before!! Thank you Sir for all your posts on laws and what not!!

See, I can be nice 


Rtspring

A few of you have seen my posts of the last couple of days.  I am brand new to this forum stuff, so forgive me if I get something wrong when trying to post.

After 34-years as a WDFW officer and detective, I retired last December.  So I have a fairly extensive background with WDFW LE.

I had a conversation with Pianoman, about what anomosity I have seen towards WDFW officers on here, and I was confused.  I have hunted and fished all my life, which is why I ended up in the job I did.....I care deeply about the resources. 

I have also seen a lot of officers across the state; some good some not so good, but as a sportsman I always thought of game wardens in a positive way (which I guess is why I became one).

I do not want to get into arguements about individual officers or individual cases, but can someone explain to me why there are so many negative postings about the people who risk their lives to make sure you, your kids and your grandkids still have animals to hunt and fish for?

I simply don't get it.

Really? You think that because of a badge they are a Little better than us? You are smoking some good stuff? How bout google bad cops with badges? Their are a ton of them. Not saying all but they do exist.

So just having a badge on makes them better than who? Lets say Dale? Rtspring? Coach, BLRman, Whitpirate, MtnMuley, Plateu, you sir are dead wrong and wrong by a long ways!

They put their pants on just like you and I. And wait for it, wait, Hold , Hold.   Some are even bad guys wearing a badge that think they are above the law!  Booted me for what my opinion?? Its called my side of the story! Why am I not in jail? Or paying 2000 bucks for a dead two point??? Hmmmm maybe because I was right all along. How bout give me some credit!!  Oh thats right I dont have a badge!!! So I must be lying...

Probably has to do with the few wardens that are not pleasant to deal with. It leaves a bad taste in folks mouths. Even though it's a small minority of officers. They tend to be the ones you hear about.

Understood, but that is the same logic that is the root cause of all other bias.....I met one who was an @#$ so I hate them all?

[Fowlweather25]

This is a very controversial subject. I gotta say i agree with both P-man and RT. They het respect, but only if it is earned. I wont respect a jackwagon!

Really? They leave a just recently shot animal to rot in the woods, but hile down over a mile to cut its horns off.  That is unsat.

No crime committed and taken to court and ordered by a judge to return ones rifle, but almost two years later have yet to produce the rifle.

Post on their webpage about a snagger and post a pic of said snagger!!

Lie to get information.

I have a really good feeling I know who you are. If Im correct in my assesments you are one of THEM. 

What animals are you protecting when Natives shoot everything in sute but only collect a few of the animals? 

Write the white guy a ticket for keeping a foul hooked fish but yet ac1/4 mile awY there are nets killing thousands of fish...

Telling a guy your taking him to jail for having a loaded gun on a quad!!! Been through it.

Don't take me as some "make lemonade out of lemons" idealist do-gooder, but perhaps we could all agree there are bad apples in every group, and spend a little more of our time and energy making things better than complaining about how bad things are.
I am impressed by all the interest all of you, on this forum, have for wildlife/hunting issues, but what are we all doing about it.  Instead of fighting among each other, I propose we form up all these members (numbers can get things done, which individuals can’t), and start trying to change some of the things you all feel are most important.
