I am with you on that. I only have second hand info on them . Dick’s let it be known. Tractor Supply never did sell guns in the Kelso store!

I somewhat frequent TS.  I've never seen anything anti-2A.  So they don't sell guns and ammo?  Criminy, is that the new threshold?

So 1 person in 1 store said they are anti firearm sales. Not a good indicator on where the owner stands on the 2nd. Being anti firearm sales could just mean there is not enough profit or its too complicated to sell firearms in their stores. I use TS fairly often. Have had great customer service through them and they made me a great deal on my Liberty gun safe a few years ago. Then knocked another $250 off of that when it didnt show up on time.

Is this the third or fourth go around for IP28?  Persistent bunch, think when you sign petitions and vote

Trying to get enough signature several times and failing shows the lack of support.  Even if they get the 117k signatures there will be some that get audited out so they will want a to get a percentage more for surety.

I almost want it to happen to see how badly it fails, but only almost.  Having them fall short on signatures again is obviously the best thing.

Sounds like a quick way to finally divide the state once and for all...
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

This thread should exist on all sections of this forum so it cannot be missed. You do all understand that this bill pretty much takes away ranching,  hatcheries, hunting, fishing, and I suggest no matter what state you live in to blow this up to make sure that it not only doesn’t receive the signatures but that voters read the fine print.  The person advocating this bill is a liberal substitute teacher who obviously wants socialism.

Just finished listening to the GoHunt podcast where they had the former president of the Oregon Cattlemen’s Association on. Sounds like some groups proposed a bill to amend the petition process so signatures had to be gathered in all counties in the state. But it never made it to the floor.

That’s the kind of offense we should be thinking about!

Having major population center voting blocs controlling the politics of the entire state is only going to get worse.
