All I know is there needs to be a slaughter of deer this season. They do not seem to be in greater numbers than normal but are fearless and bold like I have never seen.

Would this include companies like Purdue and Jenny-O? Seems like they’re in the business of killing massive amounts of animals, they’re in direct competition, and they’re feeding/baiting their prey. Just wondering.

I'm just waiting for the deer population to get out of control and in turn - an increase in ticks, resulting in more Lyme disease cases, vehicular accidents, crop destruction, property damage... only then, they will somehow allow it again. But, they will never admit they were wrong.

It's even worse in California, bees are legally considered fish...

I got a few friends that contracted Lyme disease. Ain't no joke to go through.

I can tell the deer population has boomed in my area cause of less hunters.

Thank gun control for this.

@ManualF150 I know it's bad, my sisters sister-in-law and her son both have it.

I thought drive by shootings were already illegal.

The human animal kills for food, always have. Lots of animals kill other animals to eat them, always have. Hell, cats go after mice and kill them often just for the helluvit. I wonder what the big plan is to stop the natural progression of critters, human and otherwise.

I have an idea... ban guns & ammo to save the lives of animals...

Words have changed over time. Lately, the left likes to change word meanings to advance their agenda.

Civilian used to mean non-military, but today many want to include govt employees and govt first responders. This is so they can have special privileges that we the people (citizen civilians) don't enjoy. Call me old fashioned, but I believe that govt employees and govt first responders have to follow the same laws and don't have special rights or privileges.

I am disappointed that my guns are now know as cordless hole punchers as I really like the way the word guns sounds. It just rolls off the tongue.

The term wildlife has also changed meaning. It used to be that you would see the term wildlife separated from the word fish (as in U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for instance) as wildlife typically meant undomesticated animals and birds. Now, the word wildlife includes all living organisms in an area that appear and grow wildly without introduction by humans. So now, wildlife would presumably include fish. Banning Wildlife killing contests would presumably ban fishing derbies. Is this an intended or unintended consequence of this stupid proposed legislation? It does not matter the intent, it just matters that the state and special interests are engaged in a continual effort of taking away activities that are a part of our culture to destroy that culture and assert more control.

The new word meaning of the political Left is: a bunch of intolerant, ugly, miserable, angry and whiney bitches who are hell bent on pissing on your culture and any fun activities you enjoy both today and everyday.
