As hunters and outdoor enthusiasts I thought poaching and/or illegal killing of wildlife was something that we were collectively against. Silly me.
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies

In November U.S. manufacturing contracted for the the ninth consecutive month. Layoffs across the economy are higher than anytime since the pandemic in 2020 and I just read that the Midwest farmers will be receiving a 12B bailout due to 50 year trade relationships being destroyed. I have to admit that I was a sceptic and didn't believe in the effectiveness in tariffs but I'm a believer now.

I'm against eating brussels sprouts for dinner, but I am against eating literal poop from a butt for dinner even more than that. Youll get a different reaction out of me depending on what it is you are trying to feed me.

I feel very different about wolves in WA or OR being illegally killed vs wolves in Wyoming or Alaska, mostly because there are significantly more mechanisms to legally kill wolves in some places than others which makes the number of understandable circumstances lower. And I mean understandable and not excusable. I actually really hate that they were poisoned. Poisoning is indiscriminate, the poacher could have harmed a large number of other beneficial predators and carrion animals because they had no direct control over the dispensing of the poison. Even if they had a reason to kill a single wolf, they could have taken out the whole pack, along with any vultures, badgers, eagles, cats, etc. that happened upon them.

That is not cool.
What country can preserve it's liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants.

I dont think we could do any more damage to our group then poison any critter. Anti hunters dont see "wolf,"  they see hunters poisoning cute little fluffy creatures.

It's illegal to poison wildlife so I shouldn't be happening.
Just like no guns in "GUN FREE ZONES"
Put up a sign and I won't happen, simple as that.

Wolves don’t count, they rip the fetus out while mom is still alive.  They were killed in our region many years ago for a reason, before the wolves took over in most western states the elk thrived, not so much now.  Screw the wolf and any stupid laws that protect them. They will never be “an endangered species” as long as they keep pouring in from Canada.  Hope those so called “poachers” never get caught killing wolves.

Wolves have never been an endangered specie in North America . That term is only used in lower 48 for political reasons

Sometimes I think wolf proponents will do this type of thing to make hunters look bad, then act triggered about the killing.
