Thoughts of civil disobedience come to mind. :bash:

What is an “OIL” tag? I’ve seen it referenced on this website a lot.

Anyone know who runs Howl? We need a new message to send out to legislators letting them know the vote of the hunters depends on how they handle these commission appointments.
And the stuff on Howl about the commissioner appointments is outdated by a fair margin.

We need to figure out how to push for a commission that isn’t filthy with animal rights activists.

Second bear tag will be next to go.  Then they will work on complete elimination of fall bear or start reducing the length of the season and the GMU's that it is open.  All the while, reducing cougar quotas and shortening that season as well.  Pretty soon the predators will take such a toll on the deer and elk that they will have to reduce/eliminate many of those seasons.  When that happens they will hold up the very science that they don't believe today as the reason that we need to reduce or eliminate the seasons.  They will rave about the work that the WDFW biologists have done to show that the herds are too small to support hunting.  They get their way and have no blood on their hands.

Man this has screwed my whole day. I’m so pissed. Not even as much just for spring bear, but because their reasoning could effectively end all hunting in Washington.

That's exactly how I feel. Piece by piece, turning us all into modern day criminals with no previous records.

How many total spring bear points in the system? State took a lot of cash from sportsmen that they probably need to give back  :twocents:

I think we should just get used to being criminals, in July if we carry a magazine that carry’s more than 10 rounds we can be arrested. I’m ok with not going along with this bs, I just hope our law enforcement looks the other way and don’t act like storm troopers. Spring bear is something that I hope happens one way or another!

I don't believe it will be illegal to carry one that you owned prior to the new law going into effect.  This is strictly a supply side law, which makes it even more useless and pointless.

Or let those points be transferred to another category.
