Now I throw out a challenge to all of you. Find one other law enforcement agency in this state, or for that matter any other state, with as good of record per law enforcement contact where people are actually getting investigated and charged with a crime.

Hey, I’m always up for a good challenge:
PA’s Child Sexual Exploitation Unit (only 3 people) - Since March 2001, it has had a total of 80 arrests and has a 100% conviction rate to date.
The link to this info is:
http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/crime.aspx?id=626
We’re are most in definitely in total agreement about the website. But, unfortunately it is really only the place us hunters have to look up things. If you will note, most of my comments in this thread and the other active PA thread, have been addressing things that I could not readily find orare woefully out-of-date on the PGC website:
1. Inability to find Predator Population trends, which I finally did stumble across, after much difficulty, only to find that no data exists past 2004.
2. Lack of links to or data for “deer exclosures” state wide.
3. Current revision status of the on-line regulations
TITLE 34 Game and Wildlife Code
An unabridged listing of Pennsylvania Game and Wildlife Code
*** Updated November 22, 2004 ***
4. Problems finding current “conviction Rate” and "complaint rate" data.
5. No “mission statement”.
6. And lastly (a new one), the real clincher: No visable “copyright” statement.
Since I accepted your challenge, I challenge you to personally see to it that item #2 is addressed, that a statewide listing of all Deer exclosures is placed on the PGC website (ChuckS & I had some good discussions further back in this thread as to how to make this a viable tool). Of course you may want to mention the others as well, especially the last two !
