Food plots aren't ankle high in the Spring when young wildlife tends to be born and needs the cover. If you ever bothered to plant a food plot you would realize this. There are great benefits in food plots to all wildlife. You are showing ignorance to contend otherwise. Small food plots of a few acres or less are predator magnets. If you need cover then it won't come through small acreage plots.

Todd, I believe you are my long lost twin. LOL. I also believe you should run for president. If I had to guess, we're close to the same age, just reading your post. I'm 54. I agree with 99.99999% of everything you've said, especially the part about the gov't explaining why they are taking away one of our freedoms. Nothing Alabama ever does, as far as game laws, make any sense. Thank you. And yeah we are close to the same age. I am 52.

I received this email from Senator Chambliss in reference to HB 21 today after I emailed several senators urging them to bring this to a vote. I thought the bill was favorable in the Senate Committee...
"I received a lot of input from both sides of this issue when this bill first came up two years ago. I weighed all of the information received and have opposed this bill since that time. The bill has failed on the Senate floor twice.
The bill failed in Senate Committee again this session by a 3-8 vote several weeks ago. The following week, the bill was on the agenda again at the very end of a 12 bill agenda. The chair came in and “voice-voted” the entire agenda and said that it was approved over the clear voices of the majority.
This is not right. It is anti-republic. It is clearly un-American! This underhanded tactic grew the opposition to the bill.
Obviously, this is not what you want to hear… but you deserve to know the details of what has gone on."

I'd email him right back and thank him for his response. Then I'd say, "as my senator, I feel it is important to know where you stand on issues and why. Please explain to me what information you received and what caused to to oppose this bill for the last 2 years, while approving the supplemental feeding bill at the same time."

This is how the sausage is made in every state and in Washington, adding-tacking-removing-changing bills added to bills added to bills. It's crappy but it's how they all do things. I'm sure Chambliss isn't surprised. If he is then he's naive. So do we need to hold off yet on making the counterfeit feeder decals to sell on the BlackCornMarket or can we get the printers running?

Thanks for your information. At least you can contact your senator. Timmy Holly, our senator for district 21, does not even have and email address or voice mail. Can only contact him via "snail mail".

I just noticed this (in bold) and missed it earlier. A bill can't get to the Senate or House floor for consideration of a vote without getting out of committee unless I don't remember my civics lessons correctly or something's changed. If HB21 didn't get out of committee as Chambliss says then it can't be on the Senate floor to be filibustered and not voted on (or voted on). Either Chambliss is wrong, lying to you or something funky's going on. Or I',m missing something.

I emailed him back this afternoon and thanked him for his response and also stated that I thought that I read that the bill was considered favorable in the Senate Committee. This was his response back.
"That’s the rub - the overwhelming majority there was against it. It was the same Committee and the same Senators were there, but the Chair on a voice vote said the majority was in favor. That was clearly not the case."
