Chuck: I think you better get your facts right and I take exception to your comment
"But to murder HUMANS (as Green Peace and others have)" Going back a few years, the French Government was responsible for the bombing of the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior and the death of a Greenpeace activist in Auckland harbour, New Zealand. Greenpeace was protesting French nuclear testing in the pacific. Non-violent protest (apart from the French bombing) ultimately prevailed against France. I am not a particular supporter of Greenpeace, but in my view, they have been responsible for positive change. Now, let's get back to the fly tying forum that this is meant to be!

Jerry: I'm sorry, but you are taking Jimi's comments OUT of the context he posted them in.. There are environmentalist (I ARE one), and there are waccos that would MURDER a human to save a plant, or an animal..... Jimi was just putting things in the order in which God created them.. You ar eright.. it would be a SORRY fisherman, who would not want to take care and be worried about the environment.... But to murder HUMANS (as Green Peace and others have) to protect a FISH.... There are Legal ways to do what these groups want/need to do, and MOST of these groups are greta groups.. But you have bad apples in all groups.. I get sooooooooooooo mad, when i go to my local Honey Hole to fish and other Fishermen have left trach, beer cans and bottles, Plastic containers that worms and liver came in etc.... THEYT make ALL fishermen look bad in the eyes of a lot of ppl.... But, like te ones that Jimi was referring, They ar ethe minority... I don't want to "speak" fo rJimi or put words in his mouth, but I took his post 180 degrees different from you..... I hope you'll re read his post and see what he was REALLY saying.... Chuck
