azpackhorse Report post Posted March 14, 2012 I got this email from a guy I used to work with. Along with the letter that Gilstrap issued trying to sell this bill to everyone. Gary / Scott / Brian, My brother-in-law is trying to help move a bill that is designed to improve some issues that we have as hunters. The bill would take a small portion of existing tags and use them to generate funds through a lottery and auction at a new hunters expo. John is very involved in wildlife conservation and hunters rights. Can you take a look at the attached and let me know if that is something you might be willing to support? We are looking for as much support as we can get right now. They tried to get it passed earlier but it was met with a lot of resistance. They think the reaistance was mostly from poor communication at the front end of the process. Thanks, Greg Begin forwarded message: From: John Koleszar Date: March 13, 2012 7:34:57 PM MST To: Greg Subject: Re: Bill here is the amended version from Suzanne Gilstrap and their apology On Tue, Mar 13, 2012 at 7:26 PM, Greg wrote: Shoot the bill over to me as soon as you can and I'll give you my opinion.

40-year-AZ-hunter Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Please, please, email your friend back and give him " the rest of the story ". A link to the Arizona Wildlife Federations statement would be a good place to start along with Robbie Woodhouse's writeup. Let me know if you need the links. I can't tell you how I feel about John Koleszar here on a public forum. In January he told us repeatedly that this bill was dead and asked us "isn't a man's word good for anything here". Well, I guess we now know. Thanks, Bruce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azpackhorse Report post Posted March 14, 2012 I need to make a public appology here, I honestly thought that I had removed personal info from this email before I posted but it was on there. I did not intend to do that and I appologize for that. Brian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.270 Report post Posted March 14, 2012 Don't apologize for outing a fink. We all knew pbj is a liar and a rat, now we have proof. And words are only as good as the man, too. This says a lot about why the ada hasn't issued any official statement. Lark. Proud member of the vocal minority. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
