I think hunting is on the way out as a general public recreation

Especially (in Utah) if Utah privatizes public lands.

It is not going to be privatized if the state takes over.

That's what they said about Arizona but the state has been trying to

Also, as a hunter from back east, hunting is way better out west.

I wont say that nothing will be sold but it will likely be a small amount.

Feds lose money on public lands because its unsustainable. States will won't

Most of the off-roaders I know back east come to the west because they either

It should be privatized!

Nobody would line up to hunt on the land where the Bundy family operates. It's

The point is that if the state owned the land and held it up for sale, people

You have a great deal of optimism. Misplaced

There will be hunting, you'll just have to pay more to do it.

Freddie Cougar

2/24/17 6:33am

How is that a positive outcome for the average rural hunter who grew up hunting

TaiJuan

2/24/17 7:03am

It's not, but why should rural hunters be subsidized by the taxpayer?

Freddie Cougar

2/24/17 7:10am

This argument has the sophistication of a freshman in the first week of his Econ

TaiJuan

2/24/17 7:12am

LOL, so what? But, you paint too stark a picture. Plenty of non-wealthy people

Freddie Cougar

2/24/17 7:28am

Subsidy is a fine way to put it. I'm fine giving poor desert dwellers out west

TaiJuan

2/24/17 7:39am

And like all public goods, it degrades over time to the point that it's not

Privatization seems to yield better stewardship of resources...

I agree and disagree.

The national monuments are a separate issue, imo. And I agree that they are

I agree. I'm not a fan of the suits (though I could live with some additional

I don't think the Federal government should just hand over land to the states.

chilango

2/24/17 11:42am

Of course it should. It's unconstitutional for the feds to own it.

Freddie Cougar

2/24/17 11:59am

Incorrect. The vast majority of federal land, especially in the western states,

Utah is a little bit of a different animal in this regards

bluebloodedcoug

Fair point, but note that the lands were seized from the LDS church, and not

I get a kick out of people listing court cases as if that's an argument

Freddie Cougar

2/24/17 3:59pm

Except the Property Clause explicitly trumps the Property Management Clause

bluebloodedcoug

2/24/17 6:37pm

There's literally nothing in that phrasing that supports what you are saying

Freddie Cougar

Clearly the Founding Fathers felt otherwise, as evidenced by their actions in

The Louisiana purchase was acquired by treaty and was eventually disposed of

Freddie Cougar

And what happens when the fed wants to prevent hunting? Then the entire country

Spine

Will that mean it'll be easier or harder for me to pull a bull elk tag?

chago04

You'll get the tag easier. But where will you find the bull?

Recreational hunting will be replaced with government/private trappers/hunters.

The states would fight that so hard. Hunting brings a lot of money into state

TaiJuan

People still hunt?? Why?

pink22

2/24/17 8:56am

There's something primal about providing your own food. I also think if you eat

Good reason to get out in nature, more humane than cattle

Or woman, or child. I don't hunt (unless you count fishing), but I agree with

Jay Rick

Exactly. There aren't many things as ridiculous as someone who eats meat

Every time I read a comment, or question, like this I commit to killing one more

That's another half an animal.

WhiteAndBlue

Why not? Give a valid reason for not doing it.

Sir Hammer

It is also a great population control method for some species like deer.

Spine

I'm not a hunter, but I don't think that is close to true.
