Message: <blockquote data-quote="dank" data-source="post: 248253" data-attributes="member: 2945">No manifestos and had to even google the word "fatalistic". Just a reflection of what my experiences of hunting this state and other states has been over the last 25 years. If the desire to hop out of a vehicle in order to shoot a coyote, deer, duck, pheasant, or squirrel is more important than showing some basic courtesy to landowners then we shall agree to disagree. If you wish to continue to place the burden of action on those providing access rather than on those requesting it, we shall agree to disagree. If you believe that these changes will forever destroy our hunting heritage, again... agree to disagree. I respect the heck out you KDM. I know you are an active member of the outdoor community and I get the sense you do things for the "right reasons".  I'm certainly not an agent of the NDFB or ND Stockmens and if you were to look back at my posting history you'd see that a lot of what I have posted on this site is to refute the "half-truths" and biased commentary from gst and others who like to spin the reality of ag for their benefit. I can understand resistance to such a change but I'd argue that things have already changed. Access is much less available now versus 20 years ago. Habitat more sparse than it has been in the recent past. Government spending on conservation programs is harder and harder to come by. If you are in an area that has decent habitat for any notable game, then in all likelihood it's all but posted up anyway. Sportsmen are already being forced to do more research, make more phone calls, and spend more time for due diligence in order to have a successful hunt. For sportsman to throw out the "compromise" of giving their approval for all private lands isn't much of a compromise at all since most of the places I hunt in ND are 80%+ posted anyway.</blockquote>

Verification: What is the most common fish caught on this site?
