If the pgc goofy or what?

Was checking out pgcs facebook page, and aside from most of the usual crap there that makes it look like a brochure for disney land with baby animals & birds everywhere, found something else pretty interesting. 
 
An old picture with question, can you name this person?
 
Yeah.   Several people named that person alright.
 
The person was "Rachel Carson".   Enviro-whacko.  Best known for her fighting against pecticides that effect bird eggs, but a very extreme type to say the least.  
 
Anyway, there is also something else she was well known for... Her staunch ANTIHUNTING ideals.   Here is a statement from the book she is best known for:
 
“Until we have the courage to recognize cruelty for what it is—whether its victim is human or animal—we cannot expect things to be much better in this world. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature. By every act that glorifies or even tolerates such moronic delight in killing we set back the progress of humanity.”
 
That quote is also plastered across some of the antihunter boards who look up to this brilliant role model.
 
I see that the administrator of the board says that he/she had been removing many posts because of what people are posting in reply to the picture, yet didn't take the picture down either, despite several saying that the person is a known antihunter.
 
Now pgc has had ugly "ties" with hsus in the past, lobbying alongside them in Harrisburg...   They have "sprung" deer contraceptive policies on us, they continually try to give hunters less and less say in matters.   And routinely bash us, such as the rubber ball comments not long ago, and many times in the past also.
 
Now if some pgc "cheerleader" wants to whine about me "bashing" pgc needlessly, well I don't particularly give a rats fat arse.   This kind of stuff is getting  absolutely ridiculous at pgc.
 
Pgc can whine about needing more money.   Well maybe they wouldnt need more than 100 million dollars if we weren't paying for things like having goof balls  sit around on facebook all day glorifying infamous antihunters.

Just went back over to look, and the pic is still there, so are the "good" comments, but all of the comments about not liking the pic of an antihunter being there by several posters are gone!   Including the ones that were left to stand previously and not originally removed.  
 
As for your post s10, I dont have a problem with nonhunters having a say in wildlife matters, and to some extent, they always have.    But to not be against "antis" as a wildlife management agency whose funding for wildlife and also management of game species through HUNTING depends on it...    To treat antihunters as if they are "equals" and even go out of ones way to do so, while minimizing hunter rrelations...Thats as I said..... GOOFY.  
 
This isn't the first time this kind of garbage has been posted there either. 

The more I read the more I do not like. No doubt she has done some good but I am not sure that a woman who has become a idol for "eco-feminists" is a good figure to showcase on the PGC page.

Seeing some hunters supporting her being featured on the FB page. What a crock.
 
Who's next. The crew from Whale Wars?

I started telling anyone who would listen starting in 2005 that this is what was happening and caught a lot of flack on here about my tin foil hat.  I also wrote to the BOC and politicians  complaining about what was going on. All most folks on here wanted to talk about was the big buck they saw as a result of AR.  Well guys, it's too late now. The hunters lost, get over it. The next step is changing their name to Pa Wildlife Commission. Enjoy the scraps while you can.

Maybe not alot at this moment and maybe nothing[except choice to take a small buck] in our effective lifetimes but our hunting legacy is going away quickly. The foundations have been set and the blocks are starting to be put up....WF

Doc, Remember---I said "The Hunters Lost"
1. The PGC has nothing to do with you still having your guns
2. I question the easier and faster but it's a mute point anyway
3. Most hunters wouldn't consider more seasons to hunt a already depleted resource  a plus.  Many are quitting
4. Most hunters don't consider more weapons to carry around looking for the depleted resource a plus. Many are quitting
5. The love of wildlife and outdoors has nothing to do with hunting or the PGC. Many anti-hunters share that love.
6. Your childhood desire has nothing to do with the PGC or hunting. Many anti-hunters share that feeling
7 While non-hunters and anti-hunters share your feeling about coyotes and fishers hunters have watched in dismay while game populations plummet as their numbers have increased.
8.  Hunters have a real problem with the PGC promoting anti-hunters or their agenda.
 
 The statement wasn't directed at you

I don't have PGC as a friend on facebook, so really do not know what purpose the post was made .... but I certain feel that not that many people have or will see it anyhow...  maybe just a simple case of bad judgemeny..
it certainly does not mean "the sky is falling"
 
As for S-10 post #3 and #4 .. I like how he uses the word MOST...
I rather say some hunters this or that while others (some others) feel differently..
 
I am postive the majorty of hunters would love more seasons and days to be afield and and more opportunities for hunting.
just look at any Sunday hunting thread.. see how many guys want an extra day for hunting
 
 
Finally I still am a firm believer that the PGC is not the entire reason we have depleted game populations..
 
losing more and more woods to developments of many types does not help game populations
 
less and less farming also lowers game populations
 
more and more poor or fair habitat does not help either
 
It's just not the hunters, PGC or predators hurting our game populations.
 
As I stated not much has change in Pa as far as some hunters are happy and some are not. I still hear less negative adittudes everyday at work talking to hunters or at our hunting clubs or events... than I do the negative ones..
 
now if I was to hang at the local pub and use that as a basis . I may hear differently .. I'd still beat it would be close to 50-50 at the worst..
 
 
 
 
 

My browser HATES facebook... everything is sooooo slow with just the 50+ friends I have .. so don't want to add the PGC ..
 
and I can not even find what page you guys are talking about with the picture..
 
 can somene supply a link to it ?????

All the other side discussions going on here have been beaten to death, so I feel no need to contribute either way.
 
But it is an absolute disgrace for the PGC to feature Rachel Carson on its FB page.  Not only was she vehemently anti-hunting, her pseudo science has contributed to the deaths of tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of African children from malaria.  IMO, very, very little to celebrate about Rachel Carson, unless you're into pseudo science, anti-hunting and letting people in third world countries needlessly die. 

 Neville had his chance and blew it.   The nonsense shouldnt have been there in the first place.    Then in the last 6 days, especially earlier on, there were several people whose complaints that went ignored, and in fact were deleted.  He made the conscious effort to basically spit in our faces as I see it.    At this point I dont care if they get rid of it or not.   The sentiment that permits this kinds of **** will still be there, alive and well.   And just because we cant see some asnine ridiculous post any longer if large numbers of complaints basically "forced" them to delete it, and thats the only reason its no longer there, than that isn't going to address the bigger issues just because you can't see the post any longer.  In fact, I hope they keep the dam thing there.   The longer its there, the more people see it.   Does wonders for their credibility among any 'hunter' who has an ounce of common sense.

Not surprising.   From what I know of some that work and have worked at Dep.  Fortunately dep isnt in charge of hunting & hunting license sales don't fund DEP.
 
Though I don't really need to see her anywhere, preferrably.
Morons in federal gov'ment also named a wildlife refuge after her.   Ironically hunting is permitted. lol.   Shes probably rolling in her grave every fall because of it. lol.

So the PGC claims they want to grow hunter numbers and they are going to do it by putting up a photo of perhaps the most rabid ANTI-HUNTER of her time on the website paid for with hunter monies for civil dialogue. To not expect pushback from the hunters is idiotic and the person responsible for posting the photo is the one responsible for any negative responses it received.
I am surprised they had the nerve to send you a letter worded like that. It shows their lack of understanding of the influence of anti-hunters or arrogance and I never considered them to be lacking understanding.
 
Connecting with wildlife through QUOTE: "non-hunting ways" is the desire of HSUS, Friends of Animals, PETA, etc.  Not hard to see where they are heading.

Amazing.   Absolutely fricken amazing.

after reading that response from the PGC I see no problem for them to run a rebel flag up beside the state flag and of course put a small sign at the bottem stating what is this. in fact I fricken dare them. how about the PGC officers wear swastika's with what is this written on them
