A new provision inserted into the Farm Bill would hamper Americans' ability to train hunting dogs by banning "live lure training."

I don't think it was an accident! The anti hunters have money and they spend it to get legislation to ban hunting. A grain of sand that will eventually fill the cup.....one at a time.

I've sent messages to my reps/senators. This really doesn't seem to be getting the attention we need it to.

I just watched a stupid video from the UK saying they're even trying to ban fox lure coursing after they've already banned fox hunting itself. This video is pushing the "humane alternative" of a bunch of fruity joggers running through the woods and the hounds "hunt" them. Everything is fake and gae now.
