Better Get To Know Someone
Just read a news release from the Helena MT newspaper that our friends in the US House of Rep's have just changed some rules that will make it easier for them to transfer Federal Lands to State control, of course it was sponsored by a Rep. from Utah. Fellows this will mean they will sell Federal Land to the highest bidder for oil, gas and mineral rights, there by denying you access to the land and the rivers that flow thru them. OK I understand that we need to be energy independent but we are almost there but fell short because of the price of oil and OPEC not wanting the price to stay low, all the while we have been moth balling wells, well if we truly want to have energy independence we must not allow our fate to be decided by those nut jobs in the Middle East and the idiots that think we can sell all our land to people like Exxon. I see the time when there will be closings on rivers and streams that we have had access to fish as we like, I also see our hunting rights closed on these lands unless you know someone in the corporate entity that will get you permission or if you pay for it. Can you imagine having to pay to fish on former Federal Land, what a shit thought, just don't sit around and think this will not happen, the boys from Utah will not let up and you do not have anyone in Washington who gives a shit about our rights to keep and preserve land and water use for all of us- they will sell it all to the highest bidder. Write you Rep's and see the dam double talk they send back to you - all bull shit and no answers especial our two guys, our Senators are just as bad- all BS just waiting for some large corporation to tell them what to do and not giving a shit about us as sportsmen. I bet they come calling on us when they are up for relection
