The door was opened on 10/25/10 by Kelly Roy.  Voting for the amendment is the 
clear implication of Roy's arguments.  I've been wondering when this would 
become tit for tat.  I'm voting for tat and against tit!!!!!

Is TN Birds an appropriate place to be advocating either side of a political 
issue? 
But, now that you have opened that door, let me note that I am long-time 
conservationist, birder, and hunter.  I support this proposition.  As such, 
I intend to email Mr. Chase and express that support, along with the many 
others who already have. 

Thank you.
