You must understand that laws like this are not for the rule followers, but for the rule breakers, give a cheater an excuse and they will use it.

I try and understand and I do follow the rules but it just seems like there are more and more laws and rules every year.  At what point do we say enough is enough?  If I'm hunting ethically, but it can be TAKEN as breaking the law, am I really in the wrong?

Only when LE gets better at ESP.  Words or actions has to do until the ESP skills improve.  Its why we lost the ability to use dogs for yotes.  Guys were using the excuse they were running coyotes when contacted by Gamey's in the woods with there dogs.  Even knowing good and well they were running bear and cougs or coons out of season.  Plausable denial gave us another law. 

Unfortionatly as the liberal courts take any bs excuse they can to let the criminal go, the legislatior plays catch up trying to cover the bases.  This is not always the case on all the laws but it is a reason why some are added.


15 years ago a DUI took about 30-45 min and 2 pages.  Now its 5-7 pages 2 hours on top of the written report.
