You are exactely right Chris. If we could convince people to go 1 yr with out a hunting license we would break Fish and Game. It would force them to listen to hunters. The only other way is to copy the animal rights activist. Get ourselves elected to political office and start major publicity campaigns.

Thats just it we need more hunters in political office or we need to start playing like the antis and help to fill the ones that are in office pockets. I know its sad when we have to play the same game they play but its what we need to do, to even try to keep the playing field close to level. If they buy and office we need to buy 2, if they hold a rally in DC or San Fran then we do to. For every ad they run on tv we need to have one running. It all comes down to money and power and right now we have none. We need to be out at every public event in every major city showing the public what we are really about in a positive manner. They need to know that we are not uneducated, backwoods, killers and poachers. At the same time we need to have the negative facts about our anti counterparts like the HSUS, PETA, and others. To educate the non hunting public about there lies, immoral, unethical and most of the time illegal activities.

I'm layed off now and have been studing this and the bill for washington that banned baiting and hound hunting is call (i-655). I have read it over and over who ever wrote it is wrote very well. I'm am just a stupid sheet metal worker but in that ballot they had 228,000 signatures against us. I'm not shure if we tried to fite this it probly would have to take all us sportsmen to stand up. I don't know if any body from washington has emailed that loyer but I will. don't have a lot of money or really any money at that but I will put any money at the time if this happens in and do my best againts this B S. Washington yet any state the game needs to be managed by hunters, if it involves game we as hunters say, Yes or NO. Like the wolves being reintorduced we as hunters decide that. Anouther thing to concider is each county example (spokane county,whitman county,okanogan county,stevens county,exetera). Decides there own game laws. Instead of olympia deciding the whole states game laws. I like the idea my self of no body buying a licance for a year to make the game departmant understand. I have talked to some real straight shooters about the bs game laws not just about hound hunting and there even tired of washington. I am going to my best to try to learn more about this and even see if there is any way to get hound hunting back. If not I will probaly just pick up my family and leave this miserable state. If any body has any usefull info about this or wants to help please pm me thanks casey.

i want to join the fight

I got an email back from jess (the loyer helping with hound hunting rights) he is working on oregons state inititives and will email me back with more info.

All you washington guys should attend the lower cloumbia meeting saturday evening in woodland. The details are on the washington furum.

California has ACA 11 in the works which would make hunting a right under the state's constitution. Interfere in my hunt? Now you'll be violating my civil rights and I am going to sue you and your animal rights groups out of existence just like what happened to the Nazis in Idaho. If, but most probably when hound hunting is outlawed, will you be an outlaw? -Pete
