Wait, I can't keep up, is this post about implementing BMP's, joining trapping organizations, or mandatory trappers ed?
I don't agree with Dave either FWIW. Giving in and getting nothing in return but a little more time before they are after more is no good IMO.
"14 states failed, receiving an “F” grade: Alaska Arkansas Idaho Iowa Louisiana Nevada North Carolina North Dakota Missouri Montana South Dakota Texas Virginia Wyoming Among these 14 failing states, 1 state stood out for what Born Free called an “epic fail.” Iowa has no prohibited animal traps, no restrictions against how trapped animals can be killed, } no trapper education requirement, and no restriction on the number of traps, to name a few of the reasons for its failing marks" I can't believe you beat us. Congratulations!

It looks like new Mexico drew a line in the sand and that's as far as we are willing to go. I just hope now or down the road wish that they hadn't done that. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying we should implement all bmp right now. But i would hope they would have this info in case its needed at some point in time because if we can't stick together any better than this then they are definitely going to need it.
Like red green said, I'm a man, i can change, if i have to, i guess. Lol Like i said way back in this post. For the umpteenth time read where i said I DON'T BELIEVE WE SHOULD IMPLEMENT ALL THE BMPS RIGHT NOW. Again, i think it would be prudent for the states and all trapping organizations to at least recognize it, NOT AUTOMATICALLY IMPLEMENT THEM. If the voters in some our states can't keep the antis out of office at least the bmps MIGHT be a tool to use to help keep trapping around. I had posted this clear back on the 2nd page, for you folks that only read what you want to read. And interpret.

Congratulations! I think it's great these states can stay stay free to do what and how they want. I honestly hope it lasts forever. But what happens if or when the day comes it stops? Then what? Also interesting and proud to see every one of those states have a Republican Governors. Way better than this idiot of a governor we have here.

When I first starting reading through the BMPs, the first thing I noticed is that one of the best traps ever made for trapping coon was not an approved trap by the BMPs. That pretty much told me all I needed to know (although I have read a bunch more since). But saying the 1.5 coil spring is not a good coon trap is positively ridiculous. Correct me if I'm wrong but i think they approved that trap as long as it was double jawed or inside laminated because the way a coon chews.?? I agree that is a great trap for coon, but does need some modifications to make it even better. For me i like to up my chances as high as i can to find that coon waiting for me the next morning instead of a wreck. But that's just me, crazy i know.

That is disturbing news if it's true. Unfortunately even gun owners and sportsman drank the koolaid by the gallon from the fake news.

A couple things I've learned lately, 1, don't be a Johnny come lately and start a thread about a highly controversial subject unless your ready for a beatdown from the barber shop quartet. 2, don't think your going to out spell ADC because, well--- your just not, so don't try. And, i bet you almost anything steeltraps dosen't advertise his wrecks on t-man anymore.

And, i bet you almost anything steeltraps dosen't advertise his wrecks on t-man anymore. You have to do some trapping to have a few wrecks! I dont worry much about Liberal Sympathizers like Rpmartin. Their are always haters, and those who want to make sure coyotes have comfortable maxi padded traps and pillows for their little heads to rest on before , I come by and put a 22 in their head. I will just keep on trapping coyotes AND posting up whatever I feel like. Since I am not breaking any laws, and trap in states that allow me to trap coyotes year round, I will keep doing so! So have fun with your BMP liberal douche bag posting. And always remember, when you post and thing about me i will ALWAYS responded back. I love a good fight, agurment, or spelling contest! LOL!
