They haven't come to collect anyone's guns yet, and they have had to be licensed for years. |

Yeah, well they can take my fishing tackle when they pry it out of my cold, dead hands... 
On a serious note - and at the risk of making a political statement in the wrong forum - we live in a plutocracy (rule by the wealthy) and serving corporate interests to accelerate that transfer of wealth is a large part of the system. That's what all three branches of government are paid to do (in one way or another) by lobbyists.
I voted for Obama and regret it, but it's not like we actually had a choice
The two parties are basically the same creature with two heads. The point is the same, the only difference is the delivery
Expect the largest contributors to their re-election funds to be the voices heard most clearly, regardless |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

for people who bitch a lot about poor fishing, fishermen sure do fight conservation efforts pretty hard. I'm wondering if there could ever be a conservation effort that a majority of fishermen would support?

This has nothing to do with "conservation" this has to do with your ability to fish, for any species. |

I'll feel sorry for the poor dope who tries to take my gear. It'll be "Game On" and he'll be the kick-off.
Let me add this: All of the Earth's resources are being gathered up by a relatively small group of investers. Just look around. Oil, Energy, Farmland (read food here folks). Everything. We're being corralled for the financial kill. |
