Anyone that sees me post knows that I have a strong libertarian streak. That said, I agree that LOCAL(township, county, city, etc) govts should pass laws on this. Perferable with a punishment being a butt-kicking.
How can people be so STUPID?
Apparently, you have never meet one of the environ-morons that live in the state of NJ. Most of these people think that Yogi is running around snacking on trash cans. The Bear problem has been out of control for many years now. When I was a kid, back in the 70s, I can remember seeing a bear every so often while hunting deer here in NJ. With no organized conservation for so long in this state it is no wonder things are out of control. What the "Ban the bear hunt" MORONS haven't figured out yet is that controlled conservation makes the bear population STRONGER and HEALTHER! I have had several run-ins with these people and can vouch for a fact that they are twits down to the last one. All of them havent a clue when it comes to understanding the balance of nature. I am constantly seeing mangy looking bears on the hunt for food around here. The state really needs to address the problem of POPULATION and management. Its time to dismiss the MORONS and get something done!
