The Obama administration said Wednesday it will not impose new restrictions on recreational shooting on public lands, a Thanksgiving gift for thousands of gun owners and hunters concerned about a draft plan to limit target shooting near residential areas.
The policy, proposed this summer, could have closed millions of acres of federal land to gun use, a prospect that caused alarm among gun owners, particularly in the West, where target shooting on public land is a longtime tradition. Hunting season for deer and other game begins around Thanksgiving in many states.

It's only true if it's on this forum where opinions are facts and facts are opinions

Nope- - - -include all of them! Tennessee politicians understand that we've got tall trees and short ropes- - - -it keeps the "good" ones in line, and the others running scared! Just because a pol panders to a particular group of voters doesn't mean he's really good- - - -he just prefers to cultivate working people's votes instead of the parasites on the other side! "Public service" is first and foremost self service, no matter how they choose to try to hide their greed. Trusting a politician is like trusting a rattlesnake, no matter which party they claim allegiance to!

That is our biggest threat. Shooters are slobs and it drives me nuts. I have volunteered lots of time trying to keep what we do have open. Then again the same can be said for campers and off roaders.

Some shooters are slobs, I for one am NOT !!!!
I also have spent time cleaning up after slobs, and do not shoot at stuff that is hard to clean up.
:roll2::rotflmao: Right on Teach... "Kill 'em all and let God sort them out" :spittingcoffee:
We are a little short on good tall trees here in NM Teach, but we got plenty of good strong short ropes... Maybe in NM we could tie them to a cactus, we got plenty of cactus,here and I will bet that a rattle snake will be along very shortly too!!!! On the other hand we do have a lot pecan trees here.
Damn shame really and I don't see it getting any better.
I think your choices of words is slightly in error.
I clearly remember the days when I could not purchase reloading components
due to the panic attack that enveloped American shooters when Obama was elected. Everybody hoarding primers in their closets and all the other knee-jerk reactions by the survivalists!
I'll say this though: The United States of Amercia is in a fast-fall to oblivion unless we put a straight-shooter in charge.
The forthcoming election, in my opinion, is going to be paramount to democracy in our country!
Ron Paul or Newt Grinrich are the best choice. The rest will be just politics as usual!
Not my choice of words, Fox News. However, what word would you use to describe Obama's reversal?
