Kind of on your high horse there Muskrat. I distinctly remember Paul posting on here that he calls them leg hold traps, just like his dad did, (unless he's changed over the years since posting that) because he targets beaver and that is exactly how he likes to catch them, and Paul has done more through this website and other ways for trapping than likely anyone else on here. I tend to call them footholds myself, but it's the way I talk I guess because I'm not and never will be PC. I fully believe there is no speech, PC or otherwise, that will effect the anti-trappers agenda. If they don't actually read it or see it for themselves, they will make it all up anyway.

The same people who think it's politically incorrect to say "leg hold" probably also say "harvest" instead of "kill" to keep from offending somebody.

Who cares.

Nope, won’t change the mind of an anti, but that’s not the point. It’s the wide swath of voters who are generally indifferent - could help to get a few more votes on our side when it matters. Putting bravado aside, does it hurt to say foot instead of leg?

So . . . just out of curiosity. . . how many times have you been to your state capitol to defend trapping?

Never. I don't go to Atlanta. I hope your curiosity is now satisfied.
