Default RE: Pa. Game Commission Problems

I'm sure that there's problems with the way things are being done by the GC but there's problems in every organization. I happen to agree with one of the responses on here earlier that we keep blaming the PGC on so many deer being killed but they are only allowed to buy a license just like us. Hunters are killing the deer...not the PGC. They have proven already that the number of deer being killed is directly related to the number of license they make available. That means "If we sell them they will kill them!"You can't keep buying license and killing deer and then turn around and tell the PGC it's your fault because you sold them. No...if your worried about deer numbers don't buy them! I've sat through some of the meetings discussed here and the people talking about the "Wlderness" plans are mainly looking into the future and trying to figure out what is going to happen when the hunter numbers decrease so much that there's not enough revenue to maintain the large tracts of land that hunters have been paying for for so many years. I don't think there's an easy answer but you can't bash the PGC on one hand and then cry that the DCNR is going to take over on the other.
