Governments role in Sport Hunting/Trapping

[mike martell]

Question

If a politician was going door to door and knocked on your door and you were educated on how this politician voted on previous legislation, would you still vote for this person if you knew they voted against your hounds or guns or both? I find most other Democrats on this board to be like minded with some of my own family members and that answer is yes.....Not sure why a person engages in a debate? This is saying.....Lost my hound hunting in 1994 and now every chance I get, I blow my other foot off too!

Here in Oregon I use a process called "Oregon Bill Tracker"....Once on line, you simply add the H.B. or S.B. number and it takes you to the roll call. Yep, sorts the fly chit from the pepper once they cast their vote...I live in House District 17 and Senate District 9. Both my representatives support hound hunting and gun ownership therefore I support them. Both Conservative Republicans by the way, both are on my cell phone speed dial and like our County Commissioners & representatives have even attended recent hound club meetings.....

Who remembers Peter DeFazio attending a OUSDA convention some three decades ago as he declared he was pro hound and pro second amendment? Well that sure changed once he made it to DC.....Pete is just another liberal Democrat that no longer needs your hounds and vote to stay in office...He has found he can keep getting reelected by following the party of entitlements and free stuff.....I never looked at party affiliation years past as I do now and monitor how the House of Representatives and State Senators voted on issues of concern for me or my family...A politician is like a used car salesman intent on horn shwagling you every chance they get...Not so fast....When you call them out and follow up, they start to conform. Politicians work for us and watching the pinheads in DC, most all need replaced!

I find it ironic when you call them out with previous positions voted on during different legislative sessions the ones that keep dodging you......As for my District representatives, they are hell bent on legislation to reinstate our hound hunting rights and why I'm not a Democrat! Brian Clem is a Democrat and agrees we need hound hunting. I support him!...He stands in the minority as does Senator Johnson! I support both with letters of appreciation.....You are more apt to win the lottery or be struck by lightening than have a democrat support any hunting or gun ownership rights any place in America...Just how it is!

It is actually a very simple sport and a simple life style that most who have been in it for decades enjoy. It is people like yourself that seem to want to make it a difficult endeavor. Let us know in 10 years where your at with your dogs and hunting rights in Utah. Dont change your mindset from where its at right now (just to keep it fair) good luck and good hunting.

We have told you the facts of what we know! This is not an overnight plan of the anti's to stop us from hunting. We have been fighting them for years, and know who they are!! Do you think that we all would get on here saying the same, if it wasn't true? It's pitiful that our own are Blind to what is happening to their sport and who's behind the Groups that want to Stop us!!!

I asked you all earlier to check for yourself. But if you are so Brain washed and don't, I don't wish you anything!!!

Brad I have been a democrat all my voting life, however I have voted for some republicans in the past & sure will do so in the future. Just don/t think all democrats can be against hunting with hounds, sure there are republicans & democrats who are not on our side. I have reached the point in life, just count myself lucky to get the dogs out once in awhile. That is all I meant when I said best to just go hunting & forget about it. Respect you folks who are still fighting to regain hunting for bear and cougar. I will make a effort to realize who is voting against us, true I don/t keep up with whats going on in the political world. Thanks Al

[Varminator]

Al, thanks for the reply that you will check it out! My family were democrats and some still are, and I have distances myself from them because of that.

I honesty believe that if you check out what we are saying, you will plainly see what Party is carrying the Torch for the anti-hunters!!

Wow, where to begin. Talk about a total soup sandwich!

Think we all should just go hunting and forget about it. Have a good one Al

Having the Big Lebowski, %uck it dude let's go bowling attitude, you must not care much for the future of hound hunting. Thank goodness others in your state don't have that same attitude or there would be no hound hunting in your state. Trust me there is a pile of authoritarian tyrant type democrats that would love nothing more than to shut you all out of the woods and are working hard to make it happen.

Houndsandterriers,

For your sake I sure hope you are just a 15 year old pimpled faced kid playing around on your parents computer because if your not, there is no hope for you in the dog world or the political world.

FYI Try watching other news outlets other than MSNBC and CNN. There is actually some media outlets out there that isn't state ran propaganda bought and paid for so they can control all news narratives.

Hound hunters if you value your outdoor liberties get out and vote. But more importantly research who you vote for and insure they are following our constitution, something they have to swear to uphold! Don't be an uninformed voter, voting for someone just because they belong to the same (gang) political party that you choose to align yourself with.

When a politician decides to make a career in politics fist he spends years in collage. When he gets out he just wants a job. I do not believe he cares what party hires him, or who throws money at his campaign to get him elected. He will say what he needs to say. They are all the same type of people. It is like WWF wrestling a show AKA politics.

I was raised in a household by liberal Democrats....Most of my family are just typical democrats. What changed me? I lost the very things near and dear to me...My hunting, my career under attack to mention the starting point...Once you identify the enemy, you either accept what they offer or you jump ship and fight back...I made a decision to fight for the next generation hound hunters in Oregon...I have done pretty much what I wanted too until it come crashing down.....I researched the facts and parted ways with the party bent on sucking the blood out of my veins!

MLK said it best!
Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.


Absolutely no college or "collage" required to enter a career in politics....Politicians are elected by a voting process. Any person can decide to run for office. Your political party affiliation is predetermined prior to you running for office and if you sincerely follow the process you would understand just how it works, no party "hires" you....But you don't have a clue...You are just a Democrat! democrats are like sheep, they follow, can't tell you what is happening and if you would simply open your eyes and look and research the facts of who hates your guts, you would understand you are not a Democrat if you own hounds and guns.... This topic just makes me sick! Some of us work our butts off to reinstate our hound hunting in Oregon and all across America. Look at the man behind BGH, Buddy and his monetary contributions to Maine, California, Oregon and any other State in need of financial support to retain or regain hound hunting rights based on profits from product sales while a select few on this same board can't wait to toss us all under the bus?????

[Varminator]

If you want information on which party is introducing the anti-hunting bills around the country check "Legislative Issues" here on BGH!!

Did you know it was a Democrat that introduced Bill #1221 that stopped Bear and Bobcat hunting in Calif. and it was a Democrat that crushed the Cougar Hunting in Oregon.
And it is the same all across the country!!!!

H and T, From reading your post it's clear you have not been reading ours thoroughly. We said that we knew our Reps. personally and we have been fighting the anti's for years!!!! The only ones that side with us and seldom waver are the Republicans. And it has been this way for years!! This is why we need "Everyone we can get" to wake up and vote for who is with us and not those that oppose us.

[mark]

If you walked into the democratic convention and started showing people pictures of the game you and your dogs had caught, you would find out real fast how much support they have for us!!!!!!!

[Big N' Blue]

I have a pretty good resume! Think I will put in an application with both parties and go with the highest bidder with the best benefits!!! That is how you get Ito politics, ain't it? Lol The U.S. can survive an Obama presidency. What we can't survive is a dumbed down society! The Democratic Party of today is not the same Democratic Party of your parents!!! Frigging grow up and do some research. Anyone that needs to borrow the fox, let me know, he is for rent!
