Like it or not, it's legal.

And I don't like it either, but it's public land available to all.

I'm not fond of dog owners who use their dogs to chase game. Think of Michigan. Michigan trappers lost many of their trapping and snaring rights due to DOG OWNERS!... sportsman who run their dogs.

The #1 enemy of the Michigan trappers is not PETA, ALF, HSUS or the ASPCA. It's the Michigan sportsman dog owners! Just because less than a hand full of dogs were trapped or snared from dogs being run, Michigan trappers faced some of the strongest opposition towards trapping than they've faced before.... ALL from another hunting group! Some of these ***** dogs were caught on PRIVATE land!

Now I've mostly always been a supporter of sportsman's rights. Even when some of their hunting methods and tactics are something I would never do or even believe in. But when it comes to dogs being run on public land, it's one of the most intrusive activities that really affects the deer's patterns and behavior. This is a fact.

Would I ever belong to a protest or movement that would try and remove the rights of these hunters using dogs? Heck no, not likely. It's their right and although I strongly disagree, I strongly disagree even more when one sportsman's group tries to remove the rights of another sportsman's group.
