Ringer Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Write the Republic and ask them to investigate. It is all about a special interest group trying to corrupt our process and the light of day from Channel3 or the Republic will rile up the public on this one. I pointed out the lack of transparency in other states, the legislator tags and the percent dedicated to our G&F department. Also told her about the meeting tonight. I think this is the last thing the opposition wants to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billrquimby Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Hope you emphasized that the issue is a private organization selling the public's wildlife to the highest bidders and keeping all or most of the funds, with no government oversight on how it is spent.

Ringer Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Hope you emphasized that the issue is a private organization selling the public's wildlife to the highest bidders and keeping all or most of the funds, with no government oversight on how it is spent. Bill Quimby Did that as well as stating the published info on the salaries for the head and Gilstrap, the special interest aspect and why the wealthy hunters want access to tags owned by the public. I am hoping they will read these sites to get a feel for reality and ask a few hard questions of the politicians. Never know but it can't hurt to get them involved. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
