mike rossi Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 (edited) I was reading the comments to an article by Brian Shapiro, who is the State Director of the Humane Society of the United Stares New York State. The article was an urge in a western NY newspaper to reject the cable restraint bill. Cable restraints are a form of trap similar to a snare. The Legislature did indeed reject the bill last week and the HSUS- New York State is thanking its members for showing up at Humane Lobby Day and undertaking other lobbying against the bill. They also are celebrating that they blocked it last year to. Those of you who pay attention to my posts or follow NY Dove Hunting are aware we have been stressing the importance of news editorials. Along the way we got flack and continue to, by people who claim letters by antis do not do anything and also that letters from hunters do not work either. We also stressed the importance of refuting letters with an anti hunting point of view. So, this Allen guy, he takes the time to comment, but he doesn't bother to dispute Brian Shapiro. Instead he writes this: Scott Allen • 5 months ago I think it's funny that no matter what the topic, you can be assured that there will be arguments on here after letters are posted. Do people actually believe that our elected officials are monitoring these comments? Well Scotty lad, I will answer you on this site: Yes we believe elected officials indeed monitor these sort of editorials. Not only do we believe it, we know it for a fact..... And, editorials impact their decisions too... That is why Shapiro writes all over the state... Edited June 23, 2016 by mike rossi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtTime Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I don't know any one named Scott Allen. There's an actor named Tim Allen I like though. Does that count? Why didn't you answer this Scotty on the site he posted on instead of asking people here? Not picking on you Mike, just asking. If I have a reply to something on another site I will post my reply there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtTime Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Dont worry Rob, this site fills a need of mine. People dont tend to pick on me face to face. First, what need does this site fill? Now I am curious. Second, and this one cracked me up as much as when another member posted this same type of "comment": People dont tend to pick on me face to face. You and Bill work out in the same Dojo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rossi Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) This is about the status of pro-hunting legislation and the impact of the actions of Brain Shapiro, the State Director of the Humane Society of the United States - New York State. And it is about how so many hunters are still under-informed about the importance of grassroots lobbying, some of whom in expressing their skepticism discourage others from engaging, thereby working against efforts to get more hunters on board. I was also curious if the guy I quoted was a member here, because that same message is frequent on this site despite of efforts to quell it.. And, to be honest, one of the people who came to mind was Rob. And: like I said elected officials do indeed monitor newspapers etc. and what they read does impact their decisions. So it is important to respond to negative editorials, but with relevant facts. Edited June 26, 2016 by mike rossi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philoshop Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I am not Scott Allen. While I admire your adherence to specific hunting issues Mr. Rossi, they don't really concern me in the face of the larger political issues this year. There is a very real possibility that you will lose the right to even speak about your passion(s), let alone pursue them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtTime Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 (edited) I stayed on topic, just asked why you would post a reply to the comment here and not where it was originally. Being able to see the actual article or have the name of the paper would help seeing the comment by Scott was made 5 months ago. Scott Allen • 5 months ago I think it's funny that no matter what the topic, you can be assured that there will be arguments on here after letters are posted.

Doewhacker Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 It seems like you guys literally take notes form anti's, when you can't learn the lesson that was offered try to discredit the poster. Has to be the dumbest accusation I have seen. If you don't like Mike, don't read his post's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to be the dumbest accusation I have seen. If you don't like Mike, don't read his post's. They are antis. Did you read the report we just published? The topic isnt about me. If they had any interest in fostering a letter writing culture to advance hunting they would be sticking to the topic. They not only do not have any interest in that, they are disrupting the flow of information to those who might be interested. Antis and/or looking for boyfriends, guaranteed.
