"what we're seeing coming at us is an attempted dismantling of the science-based fish and wildlife model that has served us so well. There's no basis in science for the agendas of these groups who are trying to push the public out of being able to fish and recreate.”
Just more of that .................................. change we can believe in ..... -
BigdoggHere we go again.

I Wear PantsI agree with the sentiment of that article except where it supports the use of lead fishing tackle.
-
general94So now the wackos have begun the assualt on fishing. I knew it was only a matter of time. According to the article these nuts really have the ear of the President, which does not surprise me.

Environmental wackos will be the downfall of this country. Pretty soon you won't be able to go outside for fear of hurting the environment. -

I wonder how many union members own bass boats and plan their summer vacations each year to go fishing.
Golfers beware... the greenies will be putting your lush golf courses in their cross-hairs soon enough... -
QuakerOatsAnd how many of them do exactly what their union leaders tell them to do and vote lockstep for Obama/Pelosi/Reid, even though they are voting away their own freedom.
It is just amazing. -

Shane FalcoWe don't have to be scared, everything is right in front of your face, its just you either you....
A) Don't care
B) Choose not to see it
Or
C) to scared to admit to yourself this guy is a clueless douchbag and you screwed up with your vote
Only those that choose not to see are blind! -
Gobuckeyes1The day that the government makes fishing illegal, I'll send both of you $100. And you can hold me to it.
This is no different than how the "liberals" have been going to "take away people's guns" for the past 30 years. Funny...I still have my guns. Some of you like to get all worked up in a lather about shit that has very little to no chance of ever happening. This is one of those things.
For the record, I fish quite often...I take a one week fishing vacation to Canada every summer with friends and family. I fish several places in Ohio regularly. Call it "head in the sand" if you want. I like to call it being a realist, using some common sense, and not freaking out about every single little thing I read on the internet. -

Yes, it's a column. Yes, it's opinion. But so was the ESPN article in the OP. -

Well, actually liberals have taken away people's guns in some areas (DC and Chicago come to mind). It takes THE PEOPLE standing up to the liberals to prevent it from happening. It shouldn't have to be that way, THE PEOPLE should not have to continually defend their rights which are enumerated in the constitution and the bill of rights. Those documents are there to prevent the encroachment of government upon the liberties of THE PEOPLE. In D.C. it took THE PEOPLE to finally stand up and have one of the gun laws overturned, unfortunately after thousands had already been killed by gangbangers because the gangbangers knew the citizenry was disarmed (which once again confirms the notion that liberalism always generates the exact opposite of its stated intent).Gobuckeyes1 wrote: The day that the government makes fishing illegal, I'll send both of you $100.

The bottom line --- I am damn sick and tired of turning around every day and having to defend something else that the Obama/Pelosi/Reid radical leftists are trying to infringe upon. -

Republicans have been involved in various gun control initiatives as well, and have been in support of them...QuakerOats wrote:

There are plenty of things you can complain about without all this "reaching" that you do, i.e. with this thread and the one on private sector employees. -
QuakerOatsToday's infringement --- now they want to take your salt away.

Maybe we need a new thread entitled "The Daily Encroachment", and we can use it to post the daily-liberal-infringement-on-your-rights aticles as they occur. It appears THE PEOPLE will have to be the watchdog of the liberals in government since the media won't do their job. -

I saw this on Morning Joe. Insanity. But, it will never get far, at least I sure hope not.
