This comes at a time when the country as a whole is experiencing an economic melt down and like domino's , the domino effect is wide spread. When the farmer who I buy $680 worth of wrapped balage from every ten days lose's my business, tell me that won't impact him........He'll tell you it will....and the domino's keep falling! Siding with the antis is akin to opposing all hunting....They do! We are just the current target of their on-going agenda to stop all hunting. They would like to shut down slaughter houses as well! This Bill L.D. 560 is an anti small business, anti farming , anti land rights issue!.............Pure and simple! Please contact these members of the Ag. Committee and let them know how you feel.....

This comes at a time when the country as a whole is experiencing an economic melt down and like domino’s , the domino effect is wide spread. When the farmer who I buy $680 worth of wrapped balage from every ten days lose’s my business, tell me that won’t impact him……..He’ll tell you it will….and the domino’s keep falling!

Siding with the antis is akin to opposing all hunting….They do!

We are just the current target of their on-going agenda to stop all hunting.

They would like to shut down slaughter houses as well!

This Bill L.D. 560 is an anti small business, anti farming , anti land rights issue!………….Pure and simple!

The antis are both organized and communal in thinking, and they are able to organize their agendas efficiently because of it. And when they are successful, we are not! Somewhere down the line, we as hunters have to be able to organize and overcome the advances of the those who would take away our rights and our way of life....before they are gone forever! For once they are gone, the next generation will not know they even existed, and will never know the freedom and heritage they are missing......

Bettcher Wed, 18 Feb 2009 19:39:48 +0000 http://www.skinnymoose.com/bbb/?p=5262#comment-12471 I don't see where the lawmakers have any right to tell a person what or what they cannot do on there own land if they're following current state laws,just because they don't think it's the right thing to do.We have to many unnecessary laws now. He provides a service that many of us can afford and might want to do someday versus having to fly the world over to be able to harvest the animals he has. It's another way for them to hastle gun owners rights.Law makers why don't you mind your own business,we have many more important things to tackle than this.
