" Specifically, the estimate ranged from 38 percent to 50 percent. The report split the difference by proposing a figure of 45 percent.
So based on this measure, Gutierrez is accurate. In fact, he's being cautious, sticking to the low end of the spectrum.
It is still just a GUESS.
That politifact article is from 2010, 9 years ago. The article I posted said visa overstays have been the leading method of illegals on the last 7 years. So the politifact article may very well be accurate for all I know, but it doesn't do anything to refute the article I posted.
And there is no shortage of students coming to Montana Universities that's completely against hunting and trapping in the state providing their education.
Dad once asked me why I dress like a girl. lol I was wearing a Henly blue jeans and boots. He wore a uniform all his working life. I told him " this is a Henly. This is what the British commandos wore except theirs were wool. I guess its got a lot to do with where you are coming from.
I first used the 308 in 1965 in the Army. We shot up to 400 yards and I was impressed enough so I said when I got home I was going to have one. Bought one used in 69 and have used it every year since. Took a moose with it at 200 yards , ywo steps and was down. I would have no trouble using it on anything in North America.
I don't trap as much as some on here but have had good luck w/ Hiawatha Valley & Bushwacker baits. For lures I do OK w/ Fox Frenzy, Violator 7,Gusto, Widowmaker, Windwalker, Purrrfect, Magna Gland, & Backbreaker.
I was working night shift the last couple of days. My wife asked to go with me on the check today. Of course I said yes. Bout 150 yards from our house I had a bobcat. She was all excited to see one that is alive, me, not so much. I knew I had to release it. The release went well (wife has video). It only tried to kill me a couple of times. She was beautiful. White belly with lots of spots. Way nicer than the one that I got during the season. But glad I got to let her go.
Nothing like releasing a critter that has 5 razors on each paw. To be honest, WE were happy to let her go. I was even more happy to not have to go to the emergency room. I know I took a big risk with her on the release, but I know she is out there killing rabbits. I will be making a plywood board to take with me from now on.
I would get a 30 gal tote, cut your hole in one corner. Here is a video of a fellow here in Pa. releasing a cat at about the 10 min. mark, using a tub----https://bit.ly/2W2on2c His whole video is good.
Oh yes I have Nessy. Drove a '73 Beetle out on the ice to do it. That was the last time I went ice fishing and the last time I drove that Beetle. I got it off the ice but not far off. It broke in half on me. Too much salt took its toll. The Do Not Pass and the Stop signs for floor boards just wouldn't cut it any more. We drank some beer that day...
