Oh here is the man behind the movement to ban hunting/fishing in Oregon; David Michaelson.
The proposed law bans exterminators killing rats, so it will fail.
They’ll come back with a hunting and fishing ban later, and that will probably succeed.
At which point, poaching game will skyrocket. I know hunters and fishermen. If they don’t have a legal regulated sport, they go off reservation and kill everything everywhere. And be protected by all their local buddies.
Portland may get more than it bargained for.
He looks like he could use a few good ribeyes.
AS I UNDERSTAND-—IT ISN’T JUST HUNTING& FISHING.
IT WOULD WIPE OUT ALL ANIMAL OWNERSHIP...NO MORE CATTLE RANCHES/ HORSE FARMS/CHICKENS/PIGS, ETC.
THE ENTIRE COMMERCIAL FISHING ON THE OREGON COAST WOULD BE WIPED OUT. 3/4 OF THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE STATE ARE CATTLE RANCHES.
NO INCOME? HOW WOULD THEY PAY THEIR TAXES????
Hunting and fishing is conservation. Animal rights activists are profoundly anti environmentalism. If hunting was banned Oregon would be overrunned with starving animals.
That’s the point the government will own everything, the citizens will own nothing but they will be happy, or shot.
True, but that does not matter. What does matter is that the environmental activists would feel good about themselves.
Ok, instead let’s get the fish addicted to fentanyl and move them down to Portland. Because we don’t what any animal cruelty………
He looks like someone who thinks meat does not go into the stomach.
Why can’t people just mind their own business. Danm Nancys. You never see them trying to ban their beta male activities.
This means Bears cannot get fish, wolves and coyotes can’t hunt rabbits, squirrels etc...Snakes cannot catch rats and mice...Eagles and hawks cannot go after rabbits, fish, or squirrels...
ALL hunting and fishing will be ILLEGAL!!!!!
Properly regulated hunting is necessary for the health of the ecosystem especially since most apex predators are gone. Idiots tried something like this on some state parks in Ohio. Ended up with a sick malnourished overpopulated deer population.
People proposing this are morons.
What they ultimately want is to ban all sale of meat.
Lol. Wait til the roads are clogged with deer strikes.
Going to have to learn this 1920s lesson all over again.

Except on Native American reservations.
They will then charge the White Devils for access to hunting on their Federally Protected properties.
New tagline.
IOW totally crash the entire Oregon economy. Yeah that’s a great idea.
Exactly
I kill rats. 24/7. We have what is referred to here as tree rats. They are heavy in old growth areas like ours, especially next to a golf course. I have bait stations on the top rails of my fence that I refill all the time. No need for an exterminator. lol
