Question

" We will not lose our right to Hunt in one cataclysmic legal case. Hunting will be killed slowly, like a cancer overwhelming the body and mind until we no longer have the strength to fight or the will to survive." Author, Jim Slinsky Outdoor Writer in Pennsylvania.* www.outdoortalknetwork.com.......Agree...or...Disagree

Agree or Disagree.*

Answer 1

yes
It will take a long time to beat down the tradition of our fore fathers, and change the laws. I plan on being ther until death, teaching my children and grand children about firearms, how to properly use and not abuse them for sport and protection.

Answer 2

Little by little. Been going on for years. I remember when in Jr. high I wanted to write an essay on how hunters and fishermen are the true conversationalists. Wasn't Theodore Roosevelt and avid hunter yet he started the national park system? Don't the fees paid by hunters go to maintaining the outback and game herds?

Anyway the teacher one Mrs. Jenkins told me "hunting is cruel and barbaric, it's no longer necessary in a civilized society...write about something else". So I got an incomplete, thought about dumping a hand full of dirt in her gas tank too.

There's no way one single case will end up getting hunting outlawed, it has to be done incrementally. You start the process early in the public education process. You make all hunters out to be fat, dumb bigoted redneck beer swilling wife beaters. You blame gun ownership on everything from high crime rates to the decline of rare and endangered species due to lead poisoning from spent bullets.

Anti hunting groups and the gun grabbers are using the propaganda process and they've been doing it a long, long time.

Answer 3

Definetely agree. HGC (Hand Gun Control Inc) stated that it's 50 year long term goal is to remove all weapon's rights in the country. As an example, look at the "assault gun ban" from about 12 years ago. If you look up the definition of an assault gun, it states that it is a full automatic weapon or weapon that has a select fire switch, yet they banned semi auto look alike sport weapons. The latest band wagon is to now ban "sniper rifles". They claim the average shooter has no need of a sniper rifle. At the surface, your average shooter/gun owner MIGHT agree. Look a little further into the action they propose. THEIR definition of a "sniper rifle" is any weapon with a scope that is capable of firing sub-MOA groups, which is ANY decent hunting rifle ever made. Picutre our gun rights as a large brick wall. If you go up and push on that large wall, nothing happens. Take a small hammer and start smacking just ONE brick at a time. Sooner or later, that wall will crumble and fall. That is exactly what they are attempting to do to us.

Answer 4

I would have to say I agree. I believe a that it is the animal rights junkies and anti gun fruits but it will take many years . The few hunters that have no respect for the land they hunt on also give us responsible a bad name. The ones against hunting do not see the good hunters because they focus on the bad

Answer 5

Sadly, I say that I agree, it will be a slow death. I really think that someday there will be no hunting. I see it coming in the Sam Houston National Forrest. They are cutting off access and cutting all hardwoods , & just leaving pine trees.
All the more reason to fight against every bit of legislation that will erode this right.
If you give the anti hunters & anti gun peolple an inch they will take a foot.

Answer 6

If it does happen, there will sure be a lot of outlaws out there! How are we going to fund wildlife recovery, slow overpopulation and are you going to be ready to pay resort rates to camp in a state or national park?

I agree there are groups trying to quash our hunting rights, but when they look at the sums of cash that fund all those parks and recreational areas that come from license sales, atv purchases, gas, ammo, resort fees, food, etc. I guarantee that they will back off. Why don't we let more people know about the billions of dollars hunters pump into the economy. Everyone understands cash.

I disagree. I think once "they" see the monetary impact "they" will back off.

Answer 7

So long as the brady nut's have a breath they will attack the 2nd Admendmant any way they can. The NRA can not fight this war of misinformation and out and out lie's without the support and voice's of all responsible gun owner's and hunter's. The democrat's/liberals want a socialistict country, do away with our 2nd Amendmant right's, and replace it with gay marriage. In other word's they want to turn our country into canada and I'll fight it till I draw my last breath. All you other gun owner's/hunters must do the same thing unless you want to lose your right's.

Answer 8

I agree. The biggest threat to hunting and shooting are developers and growing populations. Zoning and sprawl are very hard to fight, despite statewide regulations placed on developers (We have those laws in Ohio). We have range protection laws for state gun and archery ranges but all other ranges and personal property is subject to zoning, encroachment by developers, and eminent domain. These are the real threats, not some anti-gun boneheads. Bill Ruger's greatest concern was all the lawyers and mine has to be property developers and city planners.

Answer 9

Yes hunting will be killed slowly by these Peta type morons who don't know what it means to control a population. Like if we didn't shoot the deer there would be more people killed every year hitting them in their cars. If we didn't kill the coyotes they would be in every backyard eating all of your cats for dinner. The Human Civilization was built using the fundamentals created for hunting. Tools came from hunting, communication came from hunting, and more importantly surviving the ice age came from hunting. But you activists keep standing outside of those horse races with your stupid signs while we hunters are busy putting aside conservation land and making sure that the animals we hunt thrive in their natural environment.

Answer 10

Crazy gun-freak paranoia. Hunting and bearing arms is not only a constitutional right, but the SECOND AMENDMENT to the constitution. Why are you so afraid of losing this? It's not going to happen? In fact, I've never seen the rights of hunters ever even remotely challenged. Yes there are extensive debates over hand guns and assault-type weapons, but hunting is an American institution that will never, EVER be destroyed no matter what some Pennsylvania gun lunatic has to say about it.

I mean, this doesn't even make sense to me. If hunting is destroyed it will only be by itself because people break laws and hunt when they're not supposed to, thus killing off the animals people like you want to hunt responsibly and legally!

Plus, the NRA is seriously one of the most powerful lobby groups in the country. Like top 5 powerful; maybe top 3. Dude, your guns are safe with you, your hunting is NOT going away.

That's what I think; so in other words, I very strongly wholeheartedly disagree.

Yes, I do hunt.

Answer 11

I agree. I know if they did there would be a massive increase in hunting out of season by former hunters who just don't care what anyone says. There could even be people killed.
