A proposal to make hunting and fishing illegal in Oregon has received enough signatures to advance to the Nov. ballot. The Sec. of State needs to validate all the signatures first. A Portland City Council member wants to rename Cesar Chavez Blvd. Details: http://katu.com

No way. Commies love their “community gardens”. It’s the only source of state-grown food that will be left.
Portland can GF itself.
Why do they get to control the state?
If someone told me PETA and the Vegan extremists wanted to outlaw hunting/fishing with the ultimate plan to outlaw farming and raising of animals for slaughter in a state, Oregon would be the state I’d pick as crazy enough to even contemplate it.
I might have gone with Vermont first but Oregon would definitely be up there.
Oregon makes BIG money from hunting.
Hotels and restaurants will be greatly affected.
No more hunting & fishing fees to fund Oregon Dept. of Fish & Game enforcement..
No more size or bag limits without the nuclear bombs.
Also all animals raised for meat will have to be shipped out of state for slaughter.
The pinnacle of democrat tyranny
If this somehow passes, there will be so many lawsuits by the Indian tribes...
Which is why it is the Senate approves treaties. Before the 17th Amendment the Senate represented the state governments, so the states actually had an indirect input on what the treaties bound them to.
"Oregon Tribes are not exempted — treaty-protected hunting and fishing rights would be jeopardized."
I could well be wrong, but anything ‘treaty protected’ is beyond the reach of state laws.
This is what the Constitution says about the matter.
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
But not for the Indian reservations no doubt.
I’m sure you’re right. The idiots who wrote this initiative probably don’t care about that or violating the Commerce Clause, which it surely would by banning commercial fisheries.
IIRC—_THIS IS NOT JUST A “HUNTING & FISHING” IDEA.
THEY WANT TO BAN ALL RAISING OF ANIMALS-—CATTLE—HORSES/SHEEP/CHICKENS.
PROBABLE 80% OF THE LAND EAST OF THE CASCADES IS CATTLE RANCHES.
ALSO BANS ALL COMMERCIAL FISHING ALONG THE PACIFIC COAST-—A REALLY BIG BUSINESS.
About 50 years ago a CALIFONIA state representative wanted to tax home gardens.
WHAT FOOD SUPPLY???
CATTLE RANCHERS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED.
ALSO—ALL AGRICULTURAL CATTLE RANCHES, ETC.
Not protected by the Constitution.
I DOUBT THEY CAN EVEN BE RAISED...
Don’t compare democrats to nazis...it gives nazis a bad name.
