POPSThe Human Element I've known many sportsmen/women who love nature and hunting. Their efforts actually strengthen the deer herd by keeping the buck/doe ratio in check, keeping the deer population from being over bred and diseased, supplemental feeding of the right vitamins and minerals throughout the year, etc. I've picked up countless deer antlers in the woods and used them for all kinds of projects. The vile people who spot-light or run these animals on ATV for antlers or whatever make me ill. I'm an owner of a ATV and I ride it on my property ONLY. Anything else is disrespectful of other's and it affects those people who are responsible. Is there a solution to some who will break the law for material gain? It's the human element I suppose. One I abhor.

POPSPolice Threaten to Seize Bikes From Riders w/o Helmets
What! Is this America? Oh the tyranny of the ever growing Nanny & Security State! Talk about something that "threatens our way of life"--it is government that is doing it! How many grew up riding bikes without helmets, safely, and loved it that way! In essence: "We are with the government, but will act like your parent instead, and make rules for you to obey or you will lose even your bike riding privileges". This, seat belt laws, ATV laws, even radical drug laws, etc. represent a liberty-killing totalitarianism by government that thinks it can protect people from themselves. This is over the top! Seriously, look how even the newspaper portrays this new sin in New England (birthplace of liberty), like it's a scandal! Yesterday, a teenage boy was spotted pedaling near downtown without a helmet, his blond locks fluttering. Oh, what a wicked boy! Meanwhile real sins and social crimes are treated like nothing, while they destroy families, marriages,

POPSCanadian survives wilderness ordeal on rotting meat " He tried into the night to pry the ATV off with an axe that he had on the vehicle to no avail. He also attempted to lift it up by pounding animal bones into the ground, but his awkward position made that impossible too. "So I'm in survival mode now," he said. "I had to use what I had at my disposal." He stayed alive by eating the animals he had collected, although the rotting flesh made him sick, the Calgary Sun newspaper reported. A hospital official said Hildebrand's injuries are not described as life-threatening, but the newspaper, quoting an Emergency Medical Services official, reported that one leg that was pinned might have to be amputated.

POPSNature OverRun I own an ATV and I run it on my own damn property. But apparently there are idiots who make their own rules, and people who don't have the guts to police them properly. Money talks.
