Ed, to paraphrase W.C. Fields, a man who hates Lincoln and loves Trump can't be all bad.

But what about George Will? I didn't invent him. Even though he stopped reading after page two, Geo just summed it up best. Will is a never Trumper, and for the purposes of this thread, you did invent, or at least cited, him. Did you feel like his opinion fit the moment, or were you thinking of voting for him if he's the Republican nominee for the next election? There're different ways to look at it, but it amazes me how 'conservative' gurus have torpedoed any commentary clout that they had by showing their true colors when conservative policy is offered in spades. And, all they can do sound like lib dems with their hormones in a bit better balance.

" At least Keith has a brain." So says Homeless jOe McCarthy. I reserve judgement. Craig, conservative policy in spades is, in the long run, insanity. We fuss here that game populations are not what they were when we were young. We note that it's harder to find a place to hunt. Well, Republican policy is making all this worse. Scott Pruitt and Ryan Zinke exemplify what is wrong with the Trump administration in regard to our interests here. It won't make any difference that there's no place to hunt when there is no game out there. The world is burning, but Keith is happy with that because his 401K is soaring. So are are my mutual funds, but I have to wonder what kind of world we're leaving to posterity. Some Democrats are willing to confront these issues.

....Some Democrats are willing to confront these issues. How about that, it's a multi issue world. It does not matter what some dems are willing to do. What shouldn't be overlooked is that all dems are in lock step, right? Is it wise for me to believe that you're pro hunting when you'll turn around and accuse me of being a racist, misogynist and homophobe in the next minute? How in this world could you possibly care one bit about my hunting opportunities if my character is so flawed?

Granted that those two are not great, but your statement is way off the point and just like the crazies you are blaming failed liberal policies on someone else. Better sell your guns and start hugging trees, if we have it your way all land will be posted no hunting, hugging only!

RMBill, some game populations are soaring too. Deer are at vermin levels in many places as are turkeys and geese. More to do with changes in agriculture/habitat, new diseases and state's game departments than federal maneuvering methinks.

ChiefAmungum, you're right, of course about game in some places. Montana's mountain cities are overrun with deer. One reason for that is endless real estate development in prime winter range. Developers and rich hobby ranchers build trophy homes in the forest interface and then stick us all with enormous expense of defending their homes against fire in places they should never have been built. Gutting federal agencies that protect our food, soil, air , and water in favor of letting the rich and the large corporations do whatever they please is not in the long term interests our favorite recreations-- or our lives, for that matter. Climate change doesn't favor our needs. We have a clear choice; we can steer it or it will steer us. jOe is right about vermin, but it's not just Democrats. We're all vermin now. There are too many of us to sustain us in the way we insist on living.

Wow Billy, even the 24/7/365 anti-Trump fake news reporters at CNN and MSLSD haven't thought about blaming Trump for low grouse and quail populations. Next you'll be telling us that Fred Flintstone was a Republican who was responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs. No question that George Will is a never-Trumper, but I seriously doubt if he'd advise us to vote for your lying anti-gun Democrat Hillary Clinton. Believe it or not, quite a few of us Conservatives are into hunting, fishing, and the outdoors, and we care deeply about the environment. The picture you paint of Republicans destroying the planet is simply more of your DNC inspired bullshit. For example, in the years since anti-gun Democrat Al Gore told us that polar bears were on the verge of extinction due to global warming, their population has quadrupled. https://polarbearscience.com/2017/11/06/...he-2017-update/The horror stories about the Alaskan Pipeline were Liberal lies, and the Keystone pipeline will create thousands of construction jobs and save money for everyone but Democrat rich man Warren Buffet, who is profiting mightily from transporting oil on his polluting and inefficient Burlington Northern Railway. I'd still like to see your evidence that Trump is a treasonous traitor and Putin Puppet. But we all know you have nothing, and that you are simply a brainless empty suit who thinks it is important to blindly support Liberal Left Democrat anti-gunners. Since you are so worried about new people moving into Montana and building homes resulting in habitat loss, perhaps you can tell us how your own move to Montana was any different. If you think the population is too high, maybe you should do a late term abortion on yourself since you are nothing but a parasite anyway. And don't buy any of that counterfeit Viagra from online Russian Pharmacies. We don't want to hear you crying about Russians meddling with your erections.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
