A guy up in Idaho has three grizzly bears come into his yard where his kids play Grizzly. He shoots one dead, scaring the others away. Local authorities: yep, no problem. Federal Nitwits: Waaaahhhh… endangered species… $50,000 fine or a year in prison. To try and put this guy in prison is so stupid, the idiot behind it should be fired immediately for wasting the country’s time or put in an Idaho yard with three grizzly bears so the dolt can show the rest of us the way to handle the most dangerous creature in the USA. When three of them traipse into a guy’s Idaho yard it makes me wonder exactly how endangered they are, and what rung of the ladder our kids occupy on this species list.

Grizzlies are certainly coming back from the abyss. Glad to hear it. but that will lead to increased contact between humans and grizzlies, especially since humans continue to move into traditional grizzly territory.
Well, Charles, whenever a Griz wants to get traditional with someone's kid in the backyard of their home, I opt for the traditional greeting of a 30-06 right between the horns. :)
The worst part is that, most likely, a jury of brain dead dolts would agree this guy should have let the grizzlys maul the children and dutifully convict the guy.
Juries scare the hell out of me now. I truly don't think people have the wits about them to actually reason out a case and decide if what the gov wants is even a reasonable law.
It reminds me of the case of a Iowa man, with his legal guns from Iowa getting stopped and arrested for gun possession in nj, the state with the most restrictive gun laws around.
Yeah, a brain dead jury convicted this guy, who did no crime in his life, to a felony and had the sentence of 7 yrs in prison imposed by the judge. He got lucky and had the sentence commuted by the Governor due to the outrage it created by 2nd amendment proponents.
I'm hoping the same thing happens in this case, Whydibuy, because I agree with you completely about juries. This guy's best chance is public outrage and Idaho's Governor taking a hand in it.
