its not a self funded program or why would they bother to threaten to cut it. they move that cash flow to where ever the squeaky wheel is.
If it was self funded they couldnt cut it.
just my personal opinion. Its a program I could live without.

like anything else a few do screw it up for most, it does suport it self, some states have no grouse left to speak of and alot of people love to run there dogs. there are alot of things i could live with out too, like stocking fish . i dont fish so we should stop that, i watch people catch more than the limit and thats" unsportman like conduct". the state put them out like birds. the point i am try to make is just because you don;t like that kind of hunting don;t try to stop the people that do. i don;t stop people from fishing, i love to see people out fishing. lets stick together on the hunting and fishing sports. scott ps i have never shot a pheasant on the ground or a duck on the water unless it was crippled
