I'd like to make a suggestion to each and everyone on here to do a search in each of your home states or providence if you live in Canada or country if you live over seas for green decoy groups then feel free to post on here your findings with out naming names preferably .

They groups on the surface appear to be a consumptive user group but when you do some digging they are doing what they can to undermine and outlaw trapping , snaring , hunting and fishing as well as pet ownership and being a livestock producer is as bad in their way of thinking .
They're well funded and have deep pockets this is ment to bring these to lite because they aren't our friends .
Thanks for your time !
Allan

Thanks

Do you have any examples?

Google search Alaska or Washington green decoy groups I'm sure there's some listed if you do .

I can name them but I'd rather not give them any free headlines so to speak .

Care to PM?

No worries here Mike . Check you're pm's .

These groups aren't going away folks . I'm just trying to raise awareness .

Comment removed.

Is this what you are talking about?

Like Trout Unlimited?

Progressives inflitrating societal institutions.
I'm shocked.

Progressives have been doing it for years and years.

New Mexico Wildlife Federation

Backcountry Hunters and Anglers

Both groups claim to support hunters but have publicly supported more trapping regulations, banning lion trapping.

NMWF is basically running our game commission.

Progressives are an issue. Competition is an issue.

Bith lead to different goals and agendas when it comes to natural resources.

Some of our local DU chapters would fit that bill...

Trout Unlimited elitists up here were instrumental in pulling out a dam on the Deerskin River/Blackjack Springs and draining a large impoundment that was super habitat for waterfowl, furbearers and yes, brook and brown trout. Now there is a brushy mudhole and the trout fishing is actually worse than before. I have no use for them. Incidentally, Ducks Unlimited was aware of the plans and didn't lift a finger to stop them.

I hear y'all about the progressive groups and agree, but this is nothing particularly new. Groups have been stabbing each other in the back ever since there were groups.

The elite liberal trout fishermen didn't get snares and conibears banned in Oklahoma. It was the redneck coonhunters.

Agreed Blaine. All these "initiatives" always start with "mine, not yours."

Don't many sport catfishing groups support heavy restrictions on commercial catfishing industry?

Some of them redneck coon hunters are lawyers.


Yeah that was a cheap shot. But we should still keep in mind there are all kinds of people involved in outdoor activities.

I know that. Stipe's buddies for example.

It was the inverse of elitist liberal--not a shot.

Yeah Stipes name came to mind, there was a big cloud around that man.

I knew a lawyer that went to law school with Stipes, he said you never asked the man for a favor because he would call it in at some point.

True. He and his eastern Oklahoma buddies were almost like gangsters.

Stipe may be dead but hs legacy still lives east of I-35 and in plenty of industries and agencies.
