It just amazes me how many idiots don't believe this is an act to crush hunting and reduce gun sales. I enjoy your passion and am with you 100%. Too bad the Mods on this site are in bed with WDFW and will lock or pull this tread soon.
I am kind of confused. After reading the text of the bill it doesn't seem to me to be nearly as bad as that article makes it out to be. I do find it a little worrisome if what that article says is true about defenders of wildlife supporting the bill, but as the saying goes even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Increased federal authority over states and private property owner rights......I guess it depends on how much you care about liberty and to what extent you are willing to sacrifice liberty in the name of environmentalism. Take into consideration that who controls that authority will have a powerful influence of state and individual rights and their interpetation of how the environment should like will supercede your individual freedoms.Doesn't sound like fun to me. These are easy topics if you live in the city and don't own any amount of land.

Maybe you could point out where in the bill I overlooked it?
Good stuff Wolfbait. More wilderness, MORE wildlands, MORE roadless areas More Property restrictions! Also being a sledder and occasional ATV rider, and 4 wheeler-we have been fighting these folks for YEARS. and you will come to find that many many hunters are all for it! Right Turbo?

Me too... aren't we (as a group) proponents of wildlife habitat and increased access?Quote from: Elkaholic daWg on June 17, 2010, 10:02:18 AM Good stuff Wolfbait.

Right Turbo?Do you get to ride your sled on private land much? I would think most wildland user groups would be glad to see this happen...what am I missing?
