Since we're on the subject of land and hunting. Who here feels that these Game Wardens have way too much power? I sure as hell do. I can understand a simple fine if someone deliberately goes over limit on fish. Or takes one a few inches undersize. Or is caught fishing without a license. But these people have the power to seize and confiscate your vehicle, guns, boat, and fishing equipment. Tens of thousands of dollars they can just "take". That's insane!
I'm sorry, but I don't agree with that at all. Perhaps in the most blatant of poaching cases of endangered species. Or else some other operation where someone is deliberately violating the game laws. And making a huge financial gain in the process. But that is rarely, if ever the case. And even then, it should be decided by a jury. Not some Game Warden riding around in the woods on the public's dime. I think the power these people have, has gotten completely out of control.
I put most of them into the same class as these idiots in control of these homeowner associations. People have been so wronged by these suburban power crazed morons, they have showed up at meetings and shot people to death. You don't screw with a mans home, or his personal property, and then expect them to just roll over and take it. If I was ever voted into high public office, those are the first 2 assholes I would go after.
