Default RE: is poaching ever justifiable?

Just how scary is it that 30% of hunters say it's justifyable to poach. I keep reading stuff like "it's my god given right to feed my family" and other BS like that. The truth is, no one will ever starve in this country and you don't have to go out poaching to justify your need to illegally hunt. I'd say that 1 in 500 poachers actually get caught--it's an epidemic that needs to be addressed and we all need to be vigilant to help catch poachers by reporting them whenever we can. We've all been sitting in our stands and have heard high poweredrifle shots in the distanceand weknow that another nice buck that came out onto a field just bought itfrom some jackass poacher. I'll reportany poacher at the drop of a hat, no excuses.
