3. Stop all hunting of animals unless they're not a native to their
environment


Golly gee Molly. Florida stopped allowing the killing of alligators
years ago. Said they were endangered. The gators came back like
gang-busters. Often found in pools or sunning on the lawns. Folks were
soon up to their knees in gators.

Ever watch Swamp People on the History Channel? Folks would be
unemployed if they could not hunt gators. It's a way life in
Louisiana.


Heh! I saw the governor of Louisiana being interviewed by some twit after
the Feds allowed Louisiana to begin a harvesting season on alligators. The
interview went something like this (paraphrased):

Reporter: "Governor, what do you have to say to the environmentally-aware
citizens who protest the wanton killing of these magnificent animals?"

Governor: "Magnificent animals? It's obvious those people don't know nothin'
'bout gators! Son, these gators are lined up on the Interstate just a
waitin' for some fool to have a flat! Boy, we is LIP-DEEP in gators round
heah! They eva-where. Just you be givin' me the names of some of these here
'gator lovers and I'll send 'em all they can handle!"
