Would you happen to be on the Central Coast
between say.......SB Co and Monterey?
That's the place where, four or five years ago, an Asian immigrant "killed a sea lion with a steak knife" while fishing from a pier or a dock (not sure which) because the critter was stealing the fish off his line. The guy was of course villified across the Southland, and I was one of the few who cheered him. His priorities were in the right place. "Protected" sea lions and seals are sinking docks and ruining sailboats, not to mention eating fish and attracting sharks and orcas to the coast.
"Steak knife" !!! {^) Right!!! {^)
