Kudos for Common Sense

Glad to see a little more common sense in some of the posts and a little less emotion - although I am shocked to see some of it coming from someone of stiff tip's ilk!
There is no reason to even suggest vandalism or even some massive protest until more examples appear of the railroad's move towards citing folks for trespassing across their tracks to go fishing.
That said, I do get discouraged every time I hear of more obstacles being placed in the way of folks who fish from shore. Credit should be given to Lou MacKeil for having language written into the saltwater license funds appropriation for a good chunk of the money to go to access issues.
I know it would be a massive and overly expensive undertaking, but I would love to see the colonial ordinance governing waterfront property ownership overturned in the Bay State. If only two states, one of which is Massachusetts, have it on the books, maybe that should tell us something?
