    Hell! Cheers!. I know you secretly like some of my man love posts

    I spose I just agree with Toby. I like things the way they are now. If there is to be change, for need or want. I dont want it ruining how and what we enjoy now and hope it remains enjoyable for our kids and beyond.

    Well considered and well articulated R93. If that was a campaign speech I would vote for you.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    FWIW, at the behest of my local Deerstalkers, I wrote the minister a protest letter as regards WARO harvesting and received this boilerplate reply.

    Apparently the Game Animal Council Act is wonderful and we all live in a sunny happy placeName:  WARO Minister Reply.jpg

    My view is that, as ever with these things, the quality of this Act is proportional to how much we all get involved and do our bit. In any club or group it's always the same faces that put their hands up to be on the committee and the vast bulk of people have a "what's in it for me" attitude so if we all did a little bit to keep informed and at least vote and be vocal to our elected representatives then that can work towards our sport/pasttime being better. It's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease.

    Nick Smith cannot ever be trusted.

    On past experience and performance His actions speak louder than his words.

    IMO He is Not a friend of the recreational hunter.

    Not to mention other things, remember the "Life Time Firearms Licence" or the "Lifetime Drivers Licence" Look at what they cost now and all the extras they can also charge for. Endorsements etc

    Moonhunt, we will stand beside you!!! No mod is going to pick on you without us having an early roar!!! Difference between us and our hairy prey is that we will not wallow about!!!

    And we know our forum's dicti re politics and religion...but, hunting is our religion or at least is in our spiritual core and well the politics are becoming an increasingly insidious part of every day life. As already written, this is too important not for us to 'talk' about.

    Toby, things never stay the same...there is evolution in all...it just depends on how the evolutionary wheel is balanced...the one aspect is that we can be certain of...the squeaky wheel is oiled...we just need to squeak loudly, in preparedness, in unison, in rationality, and dignity.
