RE: How should Wildlife Management be funded?
Since you openly anounce yourself as a WCO, you are most certainly trying to represent the PGC on the message boards. You have admitted that you are attempting to utilize the internet as a tool to educate the public and dispel myths. That would be all fine and dandy if you didn't flaunt your badge and use it to try to lend credibility to your claims. Why wouldn't you choose to remain anonymous? As if being a law enforcement officer makes you any more qualified than anyone else on these boards. But then again, you already stated that 2G needs further reduction, even though the biologists reccomended stabilization and increase, so maybe you do feel you are more qualified. My guess is that thw WCO's surf the web looking for the oddball idiot foolish enough to flaunt poaching and other violations, with the intent of conducting an investigation. And if that were the case anonymity would surely be more effective. No, you FLAUNT your badge, which leads one to surely wonder what kind of power trip we could expect during a routine field check.
