How would you like it if I came to your yard on any given day during the next two weeks and shoot at anything that moves? That could be a cat in the window, you trying to get your mail...whatever? And then, how about I drive all over your yard, in the mud, have a little fun with the four wheel drive and leave cans and litter all over? And hey, while I'm at it, why don't I bring some of my rowdy friends. A few of them can harrass your wife at work and hit on your daughter, maybe put our hands on her? Still going to welcome me back next year? Same time? Same bat channel? DUH.
Now if I came to your house, parked in the driveway or along the street and knocked on the door, introduced myself and asked permission to hunt in an area that you have given the okay for, cleaned up all my trash, treated your family with respect...I imagine you'd have an entirely different reaction. Yes?
Only ONCE in 7 years has someone had enough sense to come, knock on the door, identify themselves and ask if he could hunt on our land. After being shown where the animals were and a promise to not shoot in the direction of the animals or house, he was gladly permitted to hunt.
