This e-mail upset me to no end. Cabelas needs to stay in its lane before they lose a LOT of customers. You do NOT speak for me, Cabelas, or probably several million others as well.

It seems mike lee is a big proponent of selling off the land...

which would likely get bought by hedge funds and equity firms, not individuals...

who would then lock it up for themselves or developement.

I would like more lands open up for use, but not for sale like this.

Calm down. Bad for your heart.

Theodore Roosevelt had his own private ranch in North Dakota of considerable acres. He was wise in preserving some of the most unique places like Yellowstone as a national park but having the government lock up resources and curtail wise usage of vast swaths of our western states was never part of his plan.

It just doesn’t make fiscal sense to liquidate capital assets that generate a compounding $1.1 trillion return annually

Where does that come from and is that for real? And for whom does it generate this? Are they saying it is revenue to the Federal government?

I like the FLTFA approach and agree with what Bass Pro is doing here.

Nonsense. With a little investment we can turn Yellowstone into the theme park it was always meant to be. I’m talking bison rides and a moose roundup sure to thrill. With a black bear petting zoo on the side.

This is a big deal on hunting forums right now. I’ve wanted to ask them why the Federal Government owns and should hold this land. I don’t ask, don’t need the bs.

Still, I think states should be given right of first refusal when off loading federal lands. At no cost.

I any case, Mike Lee is a scumbag.

Cabelas is a credit card company masquerading as an outdoors supplier

Open the lands up to hunters and campers, do not sell it.

You think if these lands are sold off, outdoorsmen, aka Cabelas customers will still have access to them?

You can actually argue both sides of this private public land argument

You need balance

The govt already owns a buttload of land

Plus it depends on who’s running interior etc that term

Whack jobs like to close federal land when they can

Different topic but related

Kali has to retain water and clear undergrowth

Trump should prioritize that

And drill like hell

in the heading you have created for this articlwe, the "Cabelas e-mai is supposed to link to something but it links to nothing at all.

I am confused by your approach to this topic. Your use of the FR "Post" function is puzzling to me. I just don't know what you are getting at. You say:

This e-mail upset me to no end.

What part of the text in the body of what you posted shows that it was from an emaIL authored by the business firm "Cabelas"?

That business is nowhere mentioned in the article titled

"Don’t Sell Off Our American Birthright"
of which the authors of which seem to be:
"By Johnny Morris and Collin O’Mara"
What is your complaint and what do you want your treaders to understand?

Nowhere in the material you posted is thwere any indication of it being sent by email, or by Cabela's, or that the authors are writing at the request of the Cabela business, or that they or Cabela is speaking for you or addressing you as a potential recipient to be influenced.

How about making clear what this is all about, wehat your position on the matter is, and whty.

Please. what is your expectation for a commenter;s response to be?

Are you "for" the subject to be voted on, or are you "against" it?

What is the title of the bill to be voted on? (it wasn't until the end of your text that the context was the United States Senate and not some other as the forum for any action to be undertaken.<> Etc. Be more clear as to why you posted anything on this topic.

Sounds like they were speaking to you, not for you.

(And I agree with them.)

Why does this email upset you? Their stance is that they oppose the selling off of public lands to the highest bidder. They want them to remain available to the hunters and outdoor enthusiasts......

So you support the selling off of these lands to corporations to do with it what they please?

I prefer to keep wild lands open. We don’t need every inch of habitat sold to corporate interests to ruin, pave, and/or fill with foreigners. This isn’t the Homestead Act.

Cabela’s business depends in part on selling sporting goods to recreational users of public lands and waterways. I disfavor corporations getting into political advocacy unrelated to their operations. In this case, Cabela’s has a legitimate interest in the issue. Not sure why it bothers you so much.
