  1. Why not allow this revenue source for the state? On either the national or state level, why block this revenue cash-cow - What is the government's interest? I understand why people wouldn't personally want to gamble. What I don't understand is why people or groups or institutions feel the need to control the personal choices of OTHERS. Here's the message that I'm getting from government : "You'll be better off if you don't gamble, so the nanny-state is going to treat you like a child and punish you if you go against our rules". Do we really need laws AGAINST gambling? Doesn't the reason
  2. At our hunting club. It's not close to here, but there are bobcats in every county. They're almost exclusively nocturnal.
  3. You're right. I have seen bobcats, though. A coyote would have his hands full with a bobcat!
  4. You mean --- She doesn't know she's a real granma???
  5. Consider why it was that the deer ran out in the road - Maybe it was running from COYOTES!!! True about not killing deer if you're a lousy hunter. But it's turkeys, quail, rabbits and other game species, as well as domesticated stock (chickens, baby calves, etc) and pets.
  6. Yeah - I'll probably end up catching a skunk or something.....
  7. I see tracks all of the time at our hunting club. I've only seen them in the woods a few times, although I plan to hunt them in January after deer season is over. And maybe trap them using a havahart trap.
  8. I'm fine with people "baiting and slaughtering" coyotes. I'm not fine with leg-hold traps that might catch a family pet and does not discriminate. Where THESE people from Pcom would want the traps set would be near where pets wander -- That's my concern.
  9. I know that there's an interesting story here.....
  10. First of all, you can't deport 12 million people at once. You can't arrest them, house them, process them through the justice system, and deport 12 million people. To do so would commit our entire police force to that one issue, as well as our jails, our courts and - what, are we going to put 12 million people on buses? I've said this before many times -- if you're going to be FOR undertaking this initiative, you have to be willing to pay for it, all at once! Police and detectives to find illegals and make the arrests, jails to house them awaiting trial, attorneys to represent them, at
  11. A word of caution, Mysterious - You and your neighbors can't let your pets get out of the house/yard while the traps are set or they will go straight to them and be maimed. It looks like a leg-hold trap that would crush the leg of a pet or -- it would just hold the pet in place while the coyote killed it! I'm all for coyote-killing! Because they are mostly nocturnal, it's difficult to eradicate them. Use whatever devices you need, just be aware of unintended consequences.
  12. The key word is "ROSE", as opposed to the decline that began 53 months ago.
  13. What? Congress is not doing it's job? Shocking!
  14. This should be a red flag to you that you take yourself WAY too seriously. We just observe and comment here. No one has any ability to change anything! Of course people should have an opinion and take a position, but "too angry to write "???? You may want to step away from political news, if that's the case. You'll see that none of this actually impacts your life. It's just fodder for discussion, that's all - Or as I like to say, "we're just talking here".
  15. I find it interesting that the OP has all of these various interests! ["If I wanted to have a Wiccan meeting, or a KKK meeting, or a "Mister Gay Georgia" pagent"]
  16. Taxes, of course. The GOP has never been against big government and raising taxes and asking our bravest and best to die for the corporate war machine. They just SAY that they are against raising taxes, and call WAR a necessity to "protect America".
  17. When I had a similar chance I went for it. I figured that I could always recreate mundane, but special opportunities don't come around that often.
  18. That's not weird - it's what most people do to protect themselves nowadays. My word of caution was to the unsophisticated, who don't know that every word that is typed is searchable on the Internet. Everyone should try doing a Google search of themselves, IMO.
