Utterly idiotic. I am so sick of the bunny/bear huggers.

NJ = pro criminal -pro terrorist- pro predator-

[muleskinner]

Bears - in "Joisey"?

Did Tony cap one, have it stuffed and display it in the Bada-Bing?

[Paleo Conservative]

I think I read somewhere that there is an over population of bears in New Jersey. Is that true?

[Batrachian]

Never mind the bear hunt, how about the $.13 gasoline tax hike? Now that the Democraps own the legislature they'll rubber stamp everything he wants. I gotta get out of this state. I just don't fit in with the liberals and socialists that infest this miserable place.

I'm moving to Nevada.

Thye banned mountain lion hunting in California and guess what? People and pets are being attacked by the lions and endangered bighorn sheep are being decimated by them. There is no logic among the insane.

[pabianice]

First they came for the hi-cap semi-autos, and because I didn't own one, I said nothing.

Then they came for the "assault rifles," and because I didn't own one, I said nothing.

Then they came for all semi-autos as "dangerous consumer produsts," and because I didn't own one, I said nothing.

Then they came for the rest of the handguns as "dangerous to children," and because I didn't own one, I said nothing.

Then they came for the hunting rifles... and there wasn't anyone left to speak up for me.

[Vision]

You all are having a bad day up there is loony liberal land.

Suit Filed to End All Hunting, Fishing and Trapping
In New Jersey

(Columbus) - Anti-hunters today filed a lawsuit against the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection to suspend all hunting, fishing and trapping.

The U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation is looking into the merits of the case to determine what action to pursue.

The case alleges that the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife has issued sporting licenses to convicted felons. To avoid future instances, the plaintiffs are asking Judge Susan Reisner of the Superior Court of New Jersey to suspend all hunting, fishing and trapping licenses until a background check system for all license buyers is put into place.

“This is the most outrageous and blatant attack on sportsmen’s rights that we have seen in our 25-year history,” said Bud Pidgeon, U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation president. “To besmirch the reputation of sportsmen by linking us to felons is unconscionable. Sportsmen are America’s greatest conservationists, paying literally billions each year to fund fish and wildlife programs across the country.”

It is illegal in New Jersey for any convicted felon to possess or purchase a weapon, Pidgeon said. Criminal background checks would unnecessarily delay the issuance of a sporting license. The lawsuit even asks that fishing license purchases require background checks.

The U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation protects and defends America’s wildlife conservation programs and the pursuits – hunting, fishing and trapping – that generate the money to pay for them. The U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation is responsible for public education, legal defense and research. Its mission is accomplished through several distinct programs coordinated to provide the most complete defense capability possible.

Rights, farms, environment ping.

Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from this list.
I don't get offended if you want to be removed.

[bigfootbob]

Good luck. The radical group Humane Society of the United States sponsored several citizens initiatives, (based on LIES), that restricted bear and cougar hunting in my state a few years ago.

Cougar attacks and bear nuisance reports have skyrocketed. Hell, the radicals snuck in wording in the last initiative that has banned mole traps! Our prostitute state representatives tried unsuccessfully last session to override the rules. Next session WILL be different.
