FYI, from a Buddy of mine. First I have heard of it.

“It is not what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable.” These words of the French playwright Moliere, penned over 300 years ago, could not ring more true for the sportsmen and women of our Commonwealth.
Mark your calendars, sportsmen take action on November 6, 2012…on this day; good or bad, history will be made, tradition and heritage will continue or fade into memories.
During the 2011 Session of the General Assembly an important piece of legislation sailed through the House and Senate; on November 6, 2012 it will be the only item listed under “Kentucky Referendums”. HB 1 is a real honest to goodness piece of bi-partisan legislation, of the likes never seen by the sportsmen of this state.
Backed by the National Rifle Association, House Bill 1, if passed, as a Constitutional Amendment will guarantee all Kentuckians the right to hunt, fish and harvest wildlife through traditional methods. End of discussion.
Without guise of flowery language, ifs, ands or buts, succinct and to the point…in fact it is barely five lines of copy, hardly a paragraph. Simplicity is a wonderful thing.
Here in lies the danger.
This piece of legislation is so simply understandable that it may be taken for granted, especially by the sportsmen and women of Kentucky.
On your ballot this November 6, there is no missing or mistaking this proposed Constitutional Amendment. It is the only item listed under Kentucky Referendums.
This is Kentucky, the Happy Hunting Ground; hunting and fishing is embedded in our DNA. We all enjoy the outdoors, the serene beauty, a day afield with family and friends, and the tug of a fish on the end of your child’s line. Without this Constitutional Amendment, someday all that could be a pipe dream, memories and enjoyment of days gone by.
It is imperative that every sportsperson in the Commonwealth make it to the polls on November 6, 2012, make the right decision and do the right thing, insuring the future of our fishing and hunting heritage.
For your reading is HB 1, in its entirety…
The citizens of Kentucky have the personal right to hunt, fish, and harvest wildlife, using traditional methods, subject only to statutes enacted by the Legislature, and to administrative regulations adopted by the designated state agency to promote wildlife conservation and management and to preserve the future of hunting and fishing. Public hunting and fishing shall be a preferred means of managing and controlling wildlife. This section shall not be construed to modify any provision of law relating to trespass, property rights, or the regulation of commercial activities.
To our future of Warm Barrels & Tight Lines…I hope,
Mark Nethery
