Don't feed the deer
If you do you would be a criminal if the South Dakota Game, Fish, and Parks have their way with HB1085:
Among many bills introduced in the South Dakota Legislature is one that would make it illegal to feed big-game animals. Feeding deer, elk, antelope and wild turkeys would carry up to a $500 penalty and 30 days in jail.
The bill says people could not feed grass, hay, grain, fruits, vegetables or commercial livestock feed to big-game animals for the purpose of supplementing their diets or attracting them for viewing.
Customary agricultural practices would be exempt.
Also exempt is the GFP! So we as individuals can't feed deer without being criminals, but the GFP think they can buy up our land and use it to feed all the deer they want. SB 86 has been offered to require the GFP to get legislative approval for land purchases of over 40 acres. This as sent Tony Dean, South Dakota's environmental socialists, into orbit:
At a time when access is the biggest problem facing the future of hunting, these lawmakers (?) want to make it more difficult to find a place to hunt.
Especially noteworthy, some of them, including Larry Rhoden, Jim Lintz, and a few others, are highly rated by the National Rifle Association, an organization that seems unwilling to separate gun issues from conservation and access issues important to sportsmen.
I am a member of the NRA and I will fight to preserve the constitutional right to property with the same vigor I do with the right to bear arms. It is socialists like Tony Dean who have little respect for the people having an opportunity to approve of government ownership of our land. He thinks the government can tax us to the depths of poverty, use the taxes to buy our land, and we are to be thankful that they let us hunt on it...for a small fee.
Just don't feed the deer…whether it is on the government's land or your own. If you do, you are a low-life criminal!
Wake up South Dakota! This is about freedom. The GFP is out of control.
Support SB 86 and shut down HB1085.
