Wisconsin Conservation Congress Hearings April 11th

[bnhcomputing]

To the moderators, I urge you to place this at the top until after April 11, 2005.

On April 11, 2005, the Wisconsin Conservation Congress will be holding their annual spring meetings. At these meetings, we will elect officers to the congress, and vote on over one hundred (100) hunting, fishing, and trapping regulations, advisory questions, and resolutions.

It is important that ALL SPORTSMEN ATTEND THESE HEARINGS.

Due to excessive media coverage of a single proposal, ("œFeral Cat Hunting"�), and the media"™s misrepresentation of the proposal, there are now millions of anti hunting dollars pouring into Wisconsin. The anti"™s intend to elect their people to the Conservation Congress, and squash not only the feral cat proposal, but also to introduce several new resolutions aimed at further restriction of hunting, trapping, and fishing state wide.

As sportsmen, we need to unite against a common enemy. Whether you favor feral cat hunting or not ISN"™T the point. We must unite to keep the Conservation Congress in the hands of the sportsmen, and not allow a single issue to divide us allowing the anti"™s to concur us. We need every sportsman, his/her spouse, neighbors, and children over 18 years of age. As I stated, there are $$$ flowing into Wisconsin now and true sportsmen are in danger of loosing their lively hood.

If you are a member of a Rod & Gun club or any other sportsman organization, please talk to your leaders/executives. Get them to send a mailing encouraging all members to attend these hearings on April 11, 2005, to defend our rights. Write your local papers and encourage all hunters and fishermen to attend.

WE NEED EVERY VOTE!

Thank you

I will definetly be there. I will voice my opinion on another topic of debate also. bnhcomputing you are right on when you said the anti's will be there, only to drag out the proceedings so that there will not be many people left to vote on the members at the end. Hopefully they will have the vote at the beginning, not 5 hrs later. [:'(]

Please don't turn this thread into the feral debate, there was plenty of it in the hunting politics forum. My point is that the ANTI's will show up in force, and if we don't get the word out and defend the outdoor sports, we could loose them all.

Oh, WELCOME to the forums PEAKRUT.

Just a reminder folks, the clock is ticking. The anti's are organized, they already have new gun legislation in the works, and they are coming for us.

Please urge everyone you know, who supports sportsmen, to attend these hearings. Every vote counts.
