This is all really sad. Not surprising, but sad.

It reminds me of when Evan Bayh decided not to run for the senate. He said our government is no longer doing what is in the best interest of the people/country. But instead, every decision is made along party lines. Basically, whichever party has the numbers, shoves all legislation down the throats of the other party and the people.
Now I wasn't a huge Evan Bayh fan, but I believe he was right when he said that.

Our government is not a Democracy...where 51-49 rules. It was founded as a "Republic"...you know, " To the republic for which it stands..."
Our elected officials aren't supposed to do exactly what we say. They are suppose to know what we want, and go to these sessions and represent us. But they are suppose to do what is best for our country/state. If we decide they aren't doing that, we don't re-elect them.

It's so sad that money has taken over not only federal government, but now the IDNR and NRC. They do what THEY want.

If HPR's to become legal, I will not hunt gun season. I don't hunt much now...but I will NOT go out there and subject myself to a guy who bought his Savage 270 for a couple hundred dollars at walmart the night before season and goes out there chucking lead.
