That is EXACTLY what the Left is trying to do.  That's not a conspiracy theory, they're saying it out loud.  They no longer want people to provide food for themselves.  Everyone is to be dependent on the government for synthetic meat and handouts.  Sorry to make this political, but that's really what it boils down to.

cant hunt ,don't  need your guns

cant hunt ,don't  need your guns

The ultimate goal of these people.

Western Oregon is f cking nuts.   Nuke em all...

[Jingles]

Would not surprise me if factions of WA draft up something similar in the not to distant future. Was going to say Western WA but there are groups of the population in Eastern WA that would sign on to something this crazy as well, especially here in the Methow. It is most definitely not the same climate of reasonable thinking it was 30 years ago.

Should get the federal government to cut off all funds from the federal excise tax for game management the Pitman-Robertson act.  Plus any other funds that they get for anything related. 
We need to contact our congress people in pro-hunting states and have them kill any funds going to Oregon.  Time to hit them in their pocket book.  They only get the money if they have hunting and game management programs in their state.
NO HUNTING OR FISHING — NO MONEY

Oregon is becoming more and more detached from reality, unfortunately, especially the Portland area.  While I can envision them meeting the signature minimum to get onto the ballot, I still don't see it passing.  Nothing would truly surprise me, though... 

This is why we need to reach out to friends with a message of responsible resource stewardship and ethical hunting practices.  We need to reach "the silent majority" and show them the benefits of having an active, skilled, and engaged hunting public.

Wow what's next. That's just crazy!

[nwwanderer]

Oregon election site says this has qualified for the ballot so they got more than 110,000 petition signatures.  Colorado courts threw out a similar initiative.  Crazy beyond description.

This petition won't go anywhere. Really nothing to worry about. 

It also tries to put meat and dairy farms out of business.

The Democrats will all turn against it when they see how much tax revenue they would lose.

It's just being put on by some lunatic.

[Taco280AI]

Don't underestimate the insanity and wokeness of the left

[Caseknife]

That is a scary read, and I don't doubt that it has more than a snowballs chance in h... of passing.

Sometimes I think some of these initiatives are based on a dare.
