He could but then the issue would be a fine for illegal hunting and I am sure that would be a bigger story.gam197:
He could post a picture of the deer even if he didnt have a license or killed it out of season or had killed it illegally in some other way. Peolle can voice objection or support for it, condemn or praise it, and express their opinion about it.
That’s shifting to something else. I responded to a declaration of what he can do with an expanded declaration of what he and other people can also do. Up until now, statements on what one can do have been on what someone can post, so I’ve stayed on that topic.
I think you need to quit defining liberals as what you see on the East and west coasts.
. Liberals in Colorado are a different breed…Wyoming liberals, even more so. No group is monolithic in thought!Liberals in the West are not much different. We have a brother in Colorado and he tells us some stories. Maybe in Wyoming or the" hunting" communities, liberals are different. .Vermont is pretty liberal but not when it comes to gun ownership,. There is no gun registration and Vermont is open carry.gam197:

As is Colorado…or at least certain areas like mine. I own guns and am trained in using them but I think large cities shouldn’t have lax rules surrounding them. Location seems to matter. Whereas no one would blink at a rancher carrying a rifle and pistol on his belt, in a big cite it is different. I don’t have answers. I just know that the rules of ownership may need to address the type of community one lives in and where in the US they are located.
Hunting is used to control the deer populations in many states to keep the populations healthy. And as far as meat goes, who cares if it is in the individual hunter who kills an animal, or a beef processing facility? Not really seeing the point you are trying to make here.
In colonial times, for a large portion of the population, if you didn’t get a squirrel that day, there was likely no meat in the stewpot that night . . .
Otto von Bismark: men who enjoy sausage and respect the law shouldn’t watch either being made.
It’s true that most people who hunt aren’t doing it because they need the meat. They’re doing it because they like hunting. Which, in my mind, is fine. Just do it legally and humanely.
I know a handful of people that really do hunt for their food. They max it out during the hunting season, process and store the meat. While it is not so much because they cannot afford food, they are not rich and this is one way of eating better on less.
One guy I am thinking of has done that. Not hunted himself, but volunteered to process a deer once that was killed by a car and gave the meat to some charity.
Liberals also just don’t like Ted Cruz. They’d criticize him regardless.
There is a lottery (permits) of deer and moose but nothing else. There is a season on turkeys.
They get posts because hunters and fishermen have been under attack for years. Liberals want to assure hunters that, that is really not the case.
New Mexico had a lottery on elk. Additionally, land owners were given one permit per a certain acreage, for use on their land only. It was pretty tightly controlled. My father used to run hunts up in the high country before he passed. Somehow, that hunting gene never made it to me.
