Tech I wonder you automatically assume Allen is talking about Indians

It's fairly clear to me what he means,, but perhaps he could be the one to clear up his statement.

I guess it's all in how we look at things I took it to mean CANADIANS not what color or race.We've crossed the line and there's no going back now I guess.I have seen people of all races commit crimes against nature.For us as ethical sportsmen and women arguing over Black and white,brown,yellow whatever is stupid.You want to make it about color that's up to you.After all online we're all smart,rich,handsome,and right.

tech I'm sorry you feel this way,but I guess it is what it is.

Considering the chance of getting searched for drugs, just doesn't seem worth it.

Does it happen, ya I suppose, but I watched two native Canadians repeatedly beat musky's and northern's to death with a paddle, then throw them back into the lake, so does that mean all Canadians are like that?
No, I don't think so.

If you witness something that is so obviously wrong, and do nothing to correct it (ie MNR tip line) then you become part of the problem.

fishin,, I agree with you, it is about criminals and crime, it is never about grouping a class of people or a citizenry as a group when describing crime. I have have little tolerance when races are classified as something, be it intellegent, lazy, criminals or whatever. A description of someone destroying food as "native Canadian" did not sit well with me. If there was a person doing this he was of poor character to say the least. A man is judged by his character and not the color of his skin. (MLK Jr) As for me I think it's time I went fishing!! Fishin crazy, you have a good sense of humor, you should join me someday !!

I would consider it an honor but do not find myself that far north or west on a regular basis(it's like 1500 miles from Philly).I would however be delighted to at least invision myself being able to make the trip.Thank you for your kind words and I think the more we can laugh at ourselves and how important we think we are the better we can treat each other.I travel North occasionally and will remember this invite.(we fish the eastern part of your province)Thank you Tech, if you are ever south let me know and that offer goes both ways.

Here's a blurb from today that relates to the topic.....

MNR Says Most Anglers Following The Rules
By Mike Ebbeling - July 9th, 2012 - 8:40am


Most anglers are following the rules.
Almost 95% of anglers checked in a recent enforcement blitz in the Sioux Lookout area were abiding by the rules.
However, 16 charges and 25 warnings were issued at over 25 fishing lodges and a provincial park.
Violations included possessing an over-limit of fish, transporting live fish, unlawfully packaged fish and fishing without a licence.
The Ministry of Natural Resources reminds folks that conversation officers do routine checks to make sure anglers are obeying the law.

For the record, I did not read into his comment as being about first nation... maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he was talking about Canadian Citizens in Canada. I was going to say this earlier, but didn't want to get caught in a racism debate.

And no illegal transporting of live bait.

As to why I chose to post as a guest rather than my normal handle, it was because I don’t need to endure verbal crap for years to come just because I raised a touchy subject.

Don't think much of the rest of us - do you???? eh?
