Guest okiehunter Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Re: Protecting our rights Here you go gator this came straight from the wildlife department website of the proposed new law. House Joint Resolution 1012 by Rep. Fred Morgan and Sen. Jeff Rabon. Proposed constitutional amendment specifying that state citizens have the right to hunt, trap, fish and take game. State laws which keep people from engaging in such activities would not be allowed. Gives authority to approve methods and practices relating to hunting, trapping and fishing to the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission. The amendment would not prevent reasonable regulation of such activities. Passed by the House 97 to 0. Title stricken and passed by the Senate Tourism and Wildlife Committee. Bill now awaits action by the full Senate. Hope they pass it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest okiehunter Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Re: Protecting our rights Also forgot to add this one. Senate Joint Resolution 13 by Sen. Jeff Rabon. Proposed constitutional amendment specifying that state citizens have an inherent right to hunt, trap, fish and take game within reasonable regulations for doing so. Gives authority to approve methods and practices relating to circuses, rodeos, hunting, trapping and fishing to the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission and the State Department of Agriculture. Also provides that no method, practice or procedure which is lawful on the effective date of the adoption of the amendment shall ever be disapproved by the Wildlife Conservation Commission or Department of Agriculture. Title stricken and passed by the Senate 35 to 7. Bill amended by the House to resolve all references to circuses and rodeos. House passed the bill 100 to 0. Bill now goes back to the Senate for consideration of House amendments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Re: Protecting our rights Amendments to keep our rights. Should not ever be needed really, but hope they pass them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted April 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Re: Protecting our rights Your right they should not be needed but with all of the radical animal rights groups we need to start setting ourselves up on the defensive. The would come to Oklahoma see that law and they could protest all they want too but it would not do any good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
