You raise alot of questions by the way you argue this point. Just because someone else breaks the law doesn't make it right for me to go out and break the law, no I'm not perfect and never will be but at the same time I do all I can to stay within the law, if I don't then I'll have to suffer the consequences,but I won't use ignorance as my defense. I do all I can to know the hunting regulations and if there is something I don't understand I call the DNR and get it clarified.You should know that if someone is trying to prosecute you they will turn anything they can against you even if your intentions were for the good.
Yes free speech is a beautiful thing but why use it to show your ignorance of not knowing your hunting laws. I thought this board was to be used to help our sport and each other?This type of topic doesn't help either.
As far as I'm concerned this topic is closed for lack of useful information. I hope someone can find something useful here.
I am not condoning that anyone go out and break a game law. Not in anyway shape form or fashion. What I am doing is condemning those that come here and claim to be "perfect". Likewise, I have never claimed to be ignorant of a game law and I challenge you to point out an example of my not knowing a game law or my advocation of breaking a game law because I did not know one. I, like you, read my game laws and call the DNR for any questions that may arise. What I don't do is come here and try to portray myself as someone that has never made a mistake. If you don't like the topic, you have, the right to not open, read, or reply to it.

The point is that non-hunters realize that hunters are human just like everyone else. We all mistakes. Not to justify that it is OK for one group to break a law because the other does. But to point out that non-hunters don't look at hunters as some mythical group that never sins and never makes mistakes. Surely, they realize that we are human and capable of mistake, just like they are.
