Crazy part is I know more than a few parents who don’t / are jealous

Big difference between parents and dad's. I would think overall a majority of Mom's are jealous of their daughter's looks/beauty, I've seen it plenty.

I also think overall most men are proud of their son's work ethic. I know my oldest is 22yo now and is developing into a man when it comes to physical labor and determination to not stop until the job is done.

We just did a derby style Halibut fishery. 55hours straight of non stop work. He can hang and I'm the one pushing to keep up with the young guys now. First night is pretty easy to work through the second is getting harder and harder.

I'm just saying letting it all burn at once is not a good thing but management in small sections at a time with some common sense which the States out west don't have an ounce of is is the way to go. Allowing selective harvesting is a great thing although it looks like a unsightly disaster area but in a few years it promotes a whole of wildlife almost immediately.

They have started managing on CPW land controlled by the DOW here in CO. They use a machine to chip the unwanted trees right down to the ground pretty much. Leaving the ponderosa pines.

Now they are trying to legislate a new wildlife council that will be purely a political body. They control the machines so it will pass if election reforms are not made. They will ban lead ammo first I imagine.

I follow and agree that burning it all to the ground isnt what i want to see. The eviromentalists that put us in this postion should be ashamed of themselves...but they arnet.

To me the obvious solution is selling permits to harvest the unwanted trees. And allowing people to cut and stack the wood to dry in their normal camping areas. Nothing environmentalists fight for seems to make the land better for wildlife. It's like watching an insane asylum. Human dams bad bad bad. Beaver dams good good good.

House Budget Proposal to remove Tax on Suppressors but not remove it from the NFA

Considering the tax was $200 starting in 1934 it should be easy to see it was meant to be prohibitive. For reference $200 in 1934 in 2025 dollars adjusted for inflation would be: $4800. It would difficult to argue that amount is "prohibitive" in 2025 when plenty of people are spending $200 at starbucks, for cable/streaming bills, and cell phone bills each every month, and most people are probably shooting that much in ammo per range session, and the suppressor they want to buy is 5-10x the price of the stamp to put on a gun that's at least that much more than the stamp.

Of course the Dems are great at this, for decades they've convinced everyone that making people just go to the DMV to get a valid ID/drivers license is too much of a hardship, not to mention mail in voting. :rolleyes:

I have a friend who installs high voltage transmission lines. Someone in the company he works for was out in the woods, inspecting for transmission line installation. He was shot in the back with a rifle. Police believe it was an individual protecting illegal grow operations, typically Mexican mafia where we are on the west coast.

They are out there, especially along the PCT. Sadly, gov will not go in there and get rid of them. People like to sweep it under the rug but they out there. Cartel and illegal growing that is.

We've had 2 noted incidents there w/ dirtbikes and always park at that trailhead. We take 34hr brake there, park , spend the night, and ride all day. Lots of meth'd out looking people come and go there.


6/21 - At that trailhead we finished riding, came out to parking lot, loaded bikes up and were sitting between our trucks maybe 15 min (not visible to trailhead) and a guy in a ghillie suit, painted face, and sniper rifle (Big PRS, not hunting rifle) walks out with another guy in jeans and white tshirt behind him.. He was parked right beside me in some ratty old service mini van w/ WA plates. I noticed him and told my friends... like WTF? He went to the back of van and could hear him drop mag and cycle the bolt and eject shell. It seemed off. I dismissed it as someone probably making youtube videos.


10/12/22 - We rode up the side of that mountain (3 guys on dirtbikes) and passed a hunter... then rode down the other side (quite a ways), stopped at a clearing and Y at a gravel road. We had been sitting there maybe 10 min and that hunter approaches us (with rifle slung on back) and said this, along these lines - "I seen you ride by and had some really bad thoughts, I wanted to come over and apologize or having such bad thoughts, people wait all year and take off work to come out here and hunt and your motorcycles scare everything away... again I want to apologize because I had some really bad thoughts when you passed me up there."
He repeated himself a few times, I get it, but he seemed like a psycho.


Im patiently awaiting them to release the guys pic.

These people are everywhere. Always something that’s bothered me in hunting season. You wearing orange, someone likes to think animals ain’t comp enough and decides to go full up camo ghillie in the woods and you walking around with a bright Orange target on your back. Hell even hiking during hunting bothers me because most of the time it’s shared land and people stomping along trails would be easy.

our leadership is allowed to buy votes to keep/put them in office, as well as take money once in to line their pockets for their votes on XYZ bills,... its as simple as that.
The premise in/of the script for the movie "Shooter" is the reality of this country's system. The only thing that will ever change it is what took place in the last 10 minutes of that movie. The public thinking their voting is for change is laughable, & if you think those inside will be voting for term limits, you need time on a couch.

Yep. Agreed. But nobody wants to start it and if yo do you’ll be labeled a crazy terrorist. But I’m inclined to believe that’s all that will get their attention these days. Were you aware of the no kings parade in AL? How about that Mayor Woodfin was proud of them? How about the crazy lefties battle plan to literally turn the SE blue?

Yep. Found him later last night, except witnesses claimed there was more than one.
