When I realized the had sent two officers from 400 miles away and they stayed here for 3 days before makeing thier move I knew I would get a ticket. Just a question of what one.

The sad thing is they basically fine you an amount that makes them as much $$ as possible without you getting a lawyer and fighting it. If id fought it they told me they would reopen the case and go for multiple felony convictions.


What a deal noo druglords left time to get that Garter Guy

:There is a stupid federal law that makes it a felony to violate a state wildlife law. But that is silly. Say you live on the border and catch an undersized fish in the next state over but don't realize it's a tiny bit to small. Then you drive home. Whereas it was some minor offense once you cross the state line you are a felon. This is just plain stupid. No wonder these guys have to carry guns. They have to enforce some of the stupidest laws on the books.
