I think there are a thread or two about this. I re-voted so it seems you can vote as many times as you want. Not too accurate but good for hunters that want to participate.

what a stupid pole either
A.) bear hunting for sport is senseless
B.) to many people depend on the hunt to make money

so what is it? is bear hunting a senseless sport? or is it a way for people to make money and feed their family's? seems like comparing apples and oranges to me. a better question would be
B.)as long as biologists see no decline in quality or population size should the grizzly hunt continue
of course this is a liberalized poll worded so that people choose to ban grizzly hunting, i can imagine people getting just as upset thinking someone is making money killing their precious bears

Enough of a split to make the government stand firm, given their voter base.

LOL, hardly "rigged". Do you know how many time animals right groups have "rigged" social media polls?....LOTS.

Funny how when SCI rallies the troops it's reported, however the lefties contributions go largely un-noted.

Either way it's a pointless pole, the results mean nothing. If you want a true result 9 out of 10 times, you need a poling company.

Default What a joke!!

This is priceless!!! Thanks again leftist media..... why don't you look up NDP minister George Heyman and a little group called the Sierra Club BC. The grizzly ban release statement is damn near the same as Sierra Clubs website stance on the hunt. And guess who's bio states that he was heavily involved in sierra club BC??? That's right, the honarable minister of environment himself....HEYMAN.

So write an article about how Sierra CLub should keep their nose out of gov business.... what's that???...it won't happen... Well then I guess you better get used to SCI "rigging" your polls, talking sense, and fighting the hell out of every anti on the block!!

AND WE ARE ACCUSED OF RIGGING???!!!!

It's reported because we are getting under their skin and they aren't used to a fight from us hunters. Let's show them what we stand for!!!!

Even if the poll is senseless, vote. What matters is coverage and that is what we are getting.
