""Bear hunters want a bear rug on their floor and a bear head on their wall. That's what this is all about ... a trophy hunt," said Janet Borinsky of Short Hills. "
Hell, yes!
Janet, there...she just wants a well-grilled steak and a Gucci purse. Maybe a leather-covered sofa in the home theater, and leather seats on her Beemer.
How could anyone kill one of those cute bears, anyhow?

In addition to the bear season, would it be too much to ask for a recreational, non-commercial season for the taking of Liberals? That population has irrupted wildly and arguably is in need of 'direct reduction'.
And, while one dreams, is it acceptable to dream of a season on road hogs?

Fine .. let the bears live .. and when the bear population outgrows it's space and run out of food .. the bears are going to come for the animals and children playing in the backyard.
This is happening right here in San Diego with Coyotes. The animal lovers railed and railed against killing them .. until the Coyotes began jumping their back fences and eating their dogs and cats.
Mark my words .. if you don't keep them thinned out - they will run out of food.

I also thought the title said "sharp swords." It would have been more interesting.

As long as we can have a season on people who routinely drive 5 miles or more under the speed limit.

...would it be too much to ask for a recreational, non-commercial season for the taking of Liberals?There's other things one can do with them.

Liberals are human prairie dogs. They destroy everything in their path and don't shut up. I say 5 bag limit. The way liberals breed, the species could be extinct in a few years if we open up the season.

If it came to swords, I'll bet the FReepers would have the advantage. I've even got a few to lend out. :^)

The five-year comprehensive black bear management policy was ordered by the state Supreme Court last year when it halted a proposed six-day hunt in December. The court ruled that a larger management policy, outlining goals to maintain bears and the means by which to manage their number, is needed before New Jersey can launch another hunt.
Sound like its Black Robed NAZI's that should have no bag limit.

Agust Gudmundsson of Warren County countered that the growing bear population has become a safety problem. "This is about whether we want to take the advice of people who came from Bloomingdale's or people who came from bear country," he said."
August nails it once again. If the DEP would have held these hearings anywhere closer to where the population is dealing with the problem, it would have been just plain ugly. After screwing us out of last year's hunt, Brad Campbell is too "busy" to attend one of the hottest issues in my part of NJ. What a wuss.
I guarantee he kills this year's hunt as well. Bradly Campbell is nothing but a schill for the dem's in Trenton....Most of which have never seen a black bear.
Any bear that approaches me or any of my family on my property is getting 225 grains of copper and lead between the eyes. I'm not loosing another family member to the latest form of criminal activity in NJ.

If one had to rely on the under "5 mph under the speed limit" set for one's Long Pig, one could become not 'Sleepless in Seattle' but Hungry in Miami. Make that very, very hungry.
Nobody seems to know what either a speed limit or a turn signal is.
