This is my neck of the woods. I find it hysterical how these bureaucrats have been wringing their hands over this. Meanwhile, this proposal has been shot down, because of 75 (75!) "angry emails" from "wildlife activists". Sounds like a good enough excuse to me! Meanwhile, these critters continue to tear up the landscape like living roto-tillers.

When I was growing up here back in the 70s, we hunted hog quite a bit. I used an old AR-15 SP1 with 55gr soft-points to great effect, and even once killed a 70-pounder with a .22lr -- 12 rounds of CCI Stinger put it down. There were rednecks who actually preferred to hunt hogs with dogs (pit bulls, usually) and knives -- the dogs would catch the critter and then the blade would apply the coup de grace. That's what they were going to allow.

These creatures are still considered vermin by Florida state law, which means open season if you find them on your land. Of course, if you land is only 200 yards from doctor's offices, you could get in trouble that way. So just be sure to use a crossbow. $:-)

Lots of those letters are written in dem 'war rooms' and handed out to loyal dems for their signatures. There's very little left of 'honest' on the liberal side.
