[QUOTE="deleted user, post: 404319, member: 1778"] Since Fritz pulled a liberal media move and only shared the part of the quote he wanted you to see, I’ll share the rest. “The last thing we want is to see less money raised for conservation,” says Kevin Farron, regional policy director for BHA, “but we’re trying to prove that in this day and age, by leveraging our contacts and by taking our campaign to the internet and social media, that we can raise just as much coin for conservation, if not more, than auction tags, and ensure that funding will still be earmarked for the species. Raffles have the added benefit of conforming to democratic distribution of hunting opportunity. “I think we all hold our noses a little bit when we watch these auction tags go to the highest bidder at these banquets,” says Farron. “The solution isn’t to abolish auction tags, but rather to consider alternatives to the auction model, and if there’s an alternative to raise just as much money or more, I think you’d be hard-pressed to find somebody opposed to that.” Tell me what is wrong with the North American model? It appears you’d like to see more of the European model, where royalty owns the game and access. No serfs allowed. [/QUOTE]
