Yep, sure do-near a small town known as Cuba, butts up to a bunch of State ground. I met Mr. Thurston once and felt he was one of the nicest, most intelligent people I had ever met. Guess I am kind of on the fence about this canned hunting stuff. It's not for me, but I have issues with telling someone they can't use their land to raise deer and sell hunts. Of course I agree we must do everything possible to keep foreign diseases out of our deer herd.

Jack - Here's a link to the comment section, or just use the original link and scroll down to "comments" and click there, either way...

Say No to Canned Hunting-Comments

Thanks. I was just curious. I figured if I was ever near there I'd stop and look at the animals.

Why be on tbe fence?... just take the fences. Down.....

Not selling hunts, your auctioning off deer to be shot!! Big difference, hunting should not be allowed in the same sentence as that nonsense!

Quite frankly folks the people who have been fighting this issue for a decade "are out of cards to play". This issue will be decided in the next couple of weeks. As one person said yesterday at the state house, "There is pressure to defeat this, but not enough.".

So here is your final chance to help end canned hunting in Indiana. Below is a list of the House Reps on the committee and contact info. Email them and or call as well as the Governor, TODAY!

For those of you who have committee members as your house rep you can be very influential. They will take a persons comment in "their" district very serious as YOU might vote them out of office. Be polite but firm in your comments, remind them their vote will influence your vote next election.

Sean Eberhart of Shelbyville should be a main focus. If you live in Shelby county or have family and friends who you can contact please do.Sean can kill the ammendments if he wishes.

Don't forget the governor!

We will again be at the meeting next Monday, but I can say this one is up to you.......

Bryan78:

I see you are from Shelbyville, you have a "big axe", his re election depends on your vote....use it!

Trust me Joe... I DON'T vote for him (but I don't have a problem letting him know how I feel about things)... But this past election cycle he didn't even have an opponent... This district is heavy Republican so he does very little if anything for re-election since he is basically a shoo in...
