“She also insisted that “hunting and trapping and fishing are not fundamental rights.””

Definitely true on the King’s Land.

The state. That’s why they can fine or jail you for improper taking.

Why did God use the plural?

I find it disturbing that it is described as a “privelage”. The state of Virginia describes driving in the same way, that is why they can deprive you of that “privelage” without due process. Pennsylvania, on the other hand is a right to drive state.

Thank-you for posting.

I live in Maine, and this is the first I’ve heard of this.

Hunting and fishing is a way of life in this outdoors-oriented state, and has been for centuries.

Most of Maine is strong Second Amendment country, too.

Maine apportions it’s electoral college votes, and 80% of Maine.....the 2nd congressional district.....went for Trump in November.

The translators used the plural. If you are Jewish or Some other religion, you might prefer a slightly different translation.

It would appear from the opposition, and the fact that an amendment was proposed, that there are those who would disagree. What is a centuries old way of life anyway. Nothing to be preserved. To some

Don't want to argue translations, but from a Jewish perspective We will make man was a discussion with Angels. Per Rashi's commentary on the Talmud, the decision was that if there were those in heaven in G-d's image,not having them on earth might inspire jealousy. Nothing to do with "ownership" of animals, which are here for the benefit of man.

In Hebrew, one of the words used for God, Elohim, is also plural.

Who owns the animals?

The state?
Land owners?
All citizens?
Nobody?


In Europe, the landowners.

In the U.S., the state (except for high fence game farms).

When the hunter bags the game (reduces it to possession) it become his property, in the United States.

“I remind my passionate young environmentalist friends that ‘conservation’ was in place quite a few decades before they were born.”

Give them a Rationing Coupon Book and see how long they’d survive in the wild, LOL!

Make them plant a Victory Garden!

Sorry! You can have exactly TWO MINUTES of Bandwidth on every other Tuesday. Use it constructively and with the REST of the world in mind as you do so. Bear in mind that YOU ARE USING COAL to fire the ELECTRICITY that runs your super-duper AWESOME phone with all the bells and whistles!

And that DAILY trip to Starbucks? Forgetabboudit!

*SNORT*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Son (Jesus) has always existed.

Before the earth was formed.

He came to earth incarnate, a couple of thousand years ago.

So, they want to ban conservation easements?

Typical of irresponsible animal
right activists who never managed land and wildlife nor gave away their peoperties to nature to come moralize those who carry the burden of responsibility.

Many hunters out there carry the Conservation Easement like
a cross to satisfy the strigent compliance
requirements in keeping those lands healthy and safe, but the evil heathens will always mock
and spit at those carrying crosses.

It is their ultimate goal to
demoralize.

I also have a genetic particularity making it impossible for
me to eat protein rich vegetarian foods like
legumes, so I MUST eat meat. But these nut cases insist that science is on their side, that meat is not natural for humans

There is a scene where Abraham meets a human form and recognizes the Lord and prosternate himself to the ground

Christ was always around. Abraham and other prophets attempted to carry the cross and did get persecuted every time, and ultimately Christ acknowledged their work 2000 years ago

I hate to fish. A bad day at work is better than a good day fishing!
