As usual with you anti-hunting types, you misquote what I said. I said your group is anti-hunting, just as it says on your website: "Since we’re noting who is who here, it is most certainly worth noting that Art Greenwalt is the vice-president of the board of directors of another anti-hunting group, the Alaska Wildlife Alliance" And it's rather clear that your group is anti-hunting: “The Alaska Wildlife Alliance is the only group in Alaska solely dedicated to the protection of Alaska’s wildlife.” http://www.akwildlife.org/content/view/18/50/ Are you, personally, an anti-hunter? I can't think of a reason to be vice-president of an anti-hunting group unless you're an anti-hunter, can you? We had some guys like you here in Maine back in 2004. They pretended to be hunters while raising money for an anti-hunting PAC trying to ban bear hunting. They lost. “And in that tasty little blurb you will be so kind as to point out where it states I am anti-hunting?”

You can assume all you want and I'm sure this is probably something you do on a regular basis but you won't get away with it here. I will not respond to your babble that contains no facts and is only full of false accusations and innuendo.

I would like to know why you feel compelled to have the federal government come in and resolve Alaska's problems. If it is you governor, etc. that is ignoring the votes of the people then may I ask who voted them in? The people in Nebraska perhaps. Where I live has nothing to do with this issue or any other issue. This is about seeking the federal government to stick its nose into one state's affairs. Because Mr. Young is under scrutiny for issues not related to this one, is it really necessary to bring up this subject? If that is the case then we should exempt nearly every rotten politician in Washington. So if you would like to come here and debate issues then you are welcome. If you want to come here and act like a jerk, then I will ignore you.

I guess one could expect nothing more from someone who loves big government. This is about government intrusion not aerial hunting of wolves. If as you say, the majority of Alaskans don't want it then let Alaskans figure out how to solve the problem without bringing in big government and the likes of radical, out of their mind, extremist groups like Defenders of Wildlife.
