Quoting information from a bunch of obviously biased articles isn't helping your argument.

I can come up with twenty independent, university studies that refute every single thing that you said. Who is right? The scientists? The ranchers? The guy who is "on the ground?" Give me a break. The ranchers don't have a clue about the big picture, they can't see past their pocketbook. I'm not saying I blame them, ranching is hard way to make a living.

They don't have access to the data and they aren't qualified to interpret the data. That is my opinion and it's validity is reinforced everytime one of the overblown so-called "hunters" (aka rednecks) replies to threads like these.


It all boils down to:
1. hate and fear of the government
2. hate and fear of things they don't understand
3. ignorance: refusing to put themselves in someone else's shoes and realize there is 50 sides to every wildilfe issue.


This is the set pattern that is followed both on this board and in public meetings. There seems to be two groups of people: those who are capable of seeing more than one side of an issue and those with blinders on that can't understand a view other than their own. It's a sad way to go through life.

Which group are you in?
