Where do we go from here? What is out there? Who is to say? My hope is that with a new Commisioner in place, there may be a ray of hope for those displaced by the Lawley regime. I hope that the will to exterminate me and my friends may have passed and that we will be recognized as the good soldiers we have always been. I remember a time when if a cross word was said about my advisory board, I would have drawn my sword and cut off an ear. Sadly, that is not so anymore. I have followed the Baldwin County Newspaper where much has been written about the new Commissioner. He seems honest. We have some common ground. We have some differences. Neither of which matter right now. What matters is replacing the existing members of the advisory board with members who will represent the people. We need members who believe in the honesty and integrity of Alabama's hunters. Punish the law breakers, educate the uneducated, and leave me alone. We need people on the board who are not "connected". We need people who are from the low, middle, and high end societies. Many call themselves hunters but few earn the title legitimately. Anyone can do a hunting show but that doesn't make you love it anymore than the guy who got off work at Express Oil Change today at 3:30 and hustled out to the WMA. The new commissioner will have a say in where we go from here. He will have the Governor's ear. He can replace these members. He can install an advisory board representative of the people with the peoples interest at heart. He can mend the fences or he can be a puppet of an advisory board out of control and corrupted by personal interest. The entire ocean is before us. What is out there? Where do we go from here?
