I'm not going to go so far as to cancel my subscription to Outdoor Life or Field and Stream over Zumbo's actions, but I'm not planning on getting any of his books or videos either. No great loss, I wasn't going to get them anyhow.

I wasn't trying to stir up the hornet's nest, I just wanted to highlight that Zumbo missed a real good opportunity to take a stand on the issue and failed to do so. What he should have done is tell Taulman that the legal action was so wrong and decisive that his conscience wouldn't permit him to continue to patronize any of Taulman's business or at least say that the reaction to the ruling was so negative that in order to protect his own interests he had to disassociate his business interests from Taulman's.

The old addage is that you can get judged by the company you keep. Lie down with the dogs and get up with their fleas.
