Default RE: A hunter's stance on the WHA

Well that sounds like a good idea. But let me ask a question. What should/can the average joe hunter do tohelp cancel the WHA? Iread a lot of input about the WHA but is there a petition to sign, do we contact the WHA directly voicing our individualthoughts of opposition, what??
I knowthat because of strong opposition they have lost a lot of sponsor dollars but why are they not going away? What else can be done?
If you're going to contact him, don't cowtow to him. Tell him precisely what you think. Do not negotiate with him. What is so hard to understand about that?

With your approach, nothing will be accomplished at all--except to propel him further into his unsavory intentions. To be diplomatic is not in any form condoning.
Not sure who you're addrsssing, but in any event, I say "Hogwash." No one is suggesting that we should collectively scream at him. Where did you get such a ridiculous idea?

I have an open dialogue with him which gives me an oppurtunity to voice my concerns and even have had him admit to having been short sighted in some aspects. What have you accomplished?
Again, not sure who you are talking to...but I'd say neither of us have "accomplished" anything and that is not what I addressed in this thread so far. What I have addressed is the idea of not backing up or even trying to address "can anything good come of this." If you don't like what he's suggesting and you think its detrimental to hunting and the hunting community then that should be your approach, period.

Or we could act like PETA, and Green Peace and go around torching places and vandalizing to get our point across!
Here you show how completely off the deep end you are in your response and approach. You infer that anyone that disagrees with negotiating with a man that would drug whitetails is somehow acting like PETA.

Yea. Right.
