Amen. The membership of TWRA is composed of hunters/fishers. TWRA has no input such as the discussion we are waging. I have just become a member of TWRA which one can do quite cheaply. If others of you join we can be a voice within the organization which will be for the good of all. TWRA is a bipolar organization. On one hand you have the Foundation which rules the roost with little governmental control as it is a hybird agency not a State agency and is, in my opinion very high handed and on the other hand you have a very smart dedicated environmental conservation organization. My first act as a member will be to apply for a permit to kill a few magniificent crane. If I win the draw, I save my share of crane by staying at home on the day of the hunt and reading a good book. equeener > From: jreese5@xxxxxxx > To: tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [TN-Bird] right to hunt and fish > Date: Fri, 29 Oct 2010 22:07:15 +0000 > > Adding an amendment to our state constitution, really?
