I agree. I don't want to see us defined by this issue...I am sorry for contributing to that.

However, I also feel that it would be wrong to allow the leader(s) of the other site (either directly or through inaction) to campaign for this Bill and slander us (collectively and individually) and anyone who vocally opposes it as "angry elitist". Any "hostility" that I have shown has been a defensive reaction...sorry to those who I have disappointed, I will try to rise above that in the future.

I still have a lot of respect for Devin and value his opinion, despite him having seen "my true colors" and cursing me with the alienation and polarization plague ...but I feel that he is using his position as a 'moderator/admin' to oppose every effort we make to gain support from bowhunters in the single biggest bowhunting community in Texas, TBH.

Funny how I speak for the LSBA there yet he only speaks for himself as an LSBA Member on this topic...not the Administrator/Moderator title he wears the rest of the time.

Maybe I'm wrong...maybe I am just the elitist a-hole that Devin says that I am? Either way, I will stop posting replies when he stops taking cheap shots at me and others who are just trying to preserve our privileges.
