Thanks, Paul. I believe people are scared and unsure of what the future with the lack of leadership in our country. This gives them an avenue to vent/unload.

Warrior,
We've been set up next to Paul and we always enjoy a good neighbor. There have been times when Donna is spirited after encounters with Bossman's secret sauce wink depending on the pretty color.

Thanks Paul

I was thinking yesterday when someone started a thread about this site is becoming political. Well I think that Trapper Talk is just that it’s what trappers have concerns about that’s why it has so many viewers.

If it’s trapping one wants there is Strictly Trapping that a member can go to if current affairs bothers you.

Letting civil views be express at this time is a good, IMO

I'm trying to tread carefully to avoid incurring the wrath of Paul, but I agree. He's been good about it and I appreciate it. I can't speak for the man but from what I've read, Paul is a patriot who doesn't much care for the direction the country is headed. I'm glad we have a platform to talk openly about it.

Not sure how well convention's will be attended this summer with 6.00 a gallon gas, maybe everyone will have their electric car/truck by then.

Don't know if I can get a electrical cord that long

You will need to plan on a few extra days to get there with your electric car when you have to stop every 300 miles or so to re-charge.

Very True
Especially thankful right now with Tman being my News source


Me too. Tman is one of my main news sources!

I was going to comment, but you did a pretty dang good job of saying just what I was going to.

It seems to me on this and other forums that the ones that voted for him are the main ones that want to shut down discussion. I would really love to start seeing people say “ I made a big mistake”.

Probably beyond their abilities. You have to keep your expectations realistic.

One more comment from me.

This is the coolest site on the internet. Whoever designed and implemented all the functions is just short of genius! Of course I came to the internet late in life, kicking and screaming but had to because it was required in my business so had to keep up on the times!

Being able to discuss many things on different threads with people with common interests is a real plus. The ignore button is good when opinions become personally toxic, perfect solution. The depth of this site is like no other but I must admit I don’t go anywhere else on line so probably a little bit ignorant.

Since us here in Alaska are 4 hours behind the east coast things have happened before we get up so going to TRAPPER MAN first thing in the morning for news and opinions is perfect. So many times things are happening close to a member and their information helps identify fake news!
