This is getting out of hand quickly;
First I fail to see where the number of posts a person has could possibly correlate to the validity of their opinion; you just have way more computer time available than I do. I know lots of wind bags who like to comment on everything; however, that doesn't mean they are anymore right or wrong than the next guy, they just like to talk a lot.
Secondly, I originally said "I HOPE your not..."; The way I see it, with the possibility of CWD becoming a very serious issue in NY; i feel its a poor choice to feed deer right now till we know how bad the problem is. Unless the deer are now dependent upon human supplimental feeding and are tame pets, they would move on if you stopped feeding them; especially this early in winter after they finished off your shrubs of course.However, my issue was with you not only feeding deer illegally; but the fact that you posted the evidence for your own prossecution as if you are above the law or something; and then when i confronted you on it you tried to lie and cover it up; then make excuses for it.
**If you had simply said "I know its illegal, but my landscaping bill is killing me..." I could have respected THAT, and just thought that you were crazy for posting the evidence. **
If you were ticketed tommorow for feeding deer, how would you plead? I hope you would own up to it and plead guilty. Hunters have enough problems in this Liberal state without more headlines about hunters / people feeding deer illegally.
Poachers, tresspassers ect... all have excuses and justifications for what they do and it still doesn't make it legal / right. Thats all i was saying. This could have played out a lot differently if you owned up to it instead of blaiming it on your bird feeders. Lastly, some of your comments were amusing, and by the way, I only know what i see you post here; and for you to post your own criminal activity is crazy. By the way, its legal to sit in your stand anytime you want; you just can't shoot before or after legal hours. Believe me, i know law.
Have a great day.
