Another case of "us" against "them?"

Good post. Thanks

Sounds like small town stuff gone awry.

Game wardens, In my experience, are some of the most arrogant of the Law Enforcement types. I had experience with them in two states, and the attitude was pretty much the same. They pretty much felt they were above the law, that the ordinary citizen was always guilty of "something" so it was OK to cite them even if it wasn't clear they had done something wrong. In the State where I worked intensively with them for six months, the fanaticism bordered on the psycotic.

It became clear to me, that they were far more concerned about wielding power than about protecting the resource.

So true. In my area, Connecticut River Valley, they assume a posture that you are doing something wrong, just by being outdoors. I've found a hearty sense of humor and batting eyelashes helpful. But their power has gone to their heads ... but my power is more subtle. Usually they don't have a prayer! &;-)

What an apt name.

Truth is stranger than fiction.

They sure are. In my area of NC, the F&W people are the worst. Nothing but red necks who have been issued uniforms and guns, given little apparent training and it seems that they have a "quota" of revenue to fulfill. They are power crazed, with no sense of judgement.

FReegards,

"What an apt name."

Reread my post ... I told you I was subtle! &;-)

Sue the b******s. That's right - do unto them as they've done unto us.

Imagine if every gunshop or gun show promoter named or clearly referred to in a Violence Policy Center "expose" sued VPC and its "senior policy analyst" Tom Diaz for libel.

Use the civil courts against them - like they did against the gun industry. Pretty soon, VPC and Diaz won't be able to get liability insurance.

Scandals of antigun politicians and activists - from coast to coast

As a kid growing up in New Hampshire's Connecticut River Valley, I was hunting and fishing from the time I was 5... I had so many run-ins with Fish and Game, it was almost impossible for me to hunt... By the time I left for the Navy, I was convinced that the sole purpose of F&G was to interfere with legitimate hunting instead of supporting it... bastards...

Richard Head???

[lowbridge]

[MissAmericanPie]

BTTT

[Richard Head]

I don't see what's so funny.

Now if the government bureaucrat was named something stupid sounding like Marc Solomon, or lowbridge now that would be cause for laughter.

;-)

[Mercuria]

Change your name, dude. Like, quick.

[nunya bidness]

You made milk shoot out of my nose. I don't think I've done that since 4th grade.
