Here's a story for yall . About 5 years ago i was hunting on a friends property. i had shot a yote about 8:00 am. a few minutes had went by and a neighbor heard the shot and called the game and fish. He told them he had seen me shoot from the road, and it was a deer. He said he had seen me from his front porch. Well they called me on the phone and wanted to meet with me. I said that was fine. I showed them the yote and my written permission to hunt the farm.I also told them i didnot shoot from the road and showed them where i was sitting. They didnot belive me and wrote me two tickets. I had to hire a lawyer and it cost me $500.00. We had a jury trial and the man finally said he lied about the whole thing, and my case was dismissed. It still cost me $500.00 for nothing. Then last year a lady driving drunk hit me and my wife head on at a high rate of speed. She was took to the e/r and before they could give her a blood test she left the hospital. the olny thing they could fine her for was driving to fast for con., and open container. her fines were $185.00. if i had just paid my fines from the game and fish they would have been about $ 1000.00. so i say our system is not rite.sorry for being so long.
