[QUOTE="You, post: 147182, member: 514"] Wow guys. At this point it's pretty obvious I'm basically the only one on here who isn't an asshole. Anyhow, to add to the convo I wanted to share that I know a few avid hunters (both old and new skool) who absolutely will not stop and ask for permission. Personally, I have no problem doing so, but for whatever reason they will not. As strange as it sounds, it seems to me that they would somehow feel shamed for asking??? For what it's worth, I could honestly see them giving up on their favorite past time should this bill pass. They have relied on public and unposted property for years and absolutely will not even consider accessing land which has so much as a paper remnant stapled to a telephone pole. I shit you not, over the years I have heard on a few occasions "well it's not posted is it?" when checking with the landowner to make doubly sure it was AOK for me to hunt..... I think the bill is stupid and hurts all sportsman present and certainly decreases future participants. I can also see 'pay for play' taking off a bit more as well, which is absolutely disgusting.
