Dear Friends and Colleagues:

I am writing to ask you to help me stand up for our hunting heritage by voting in the affirmative in the poll found at the link below. This poll is connected to the upcoming public debate that will pit Field & Stream Magazine Editor Anthony Licata and I against HSUS CEO Wayne Pacelle and Adam Roberts, CEO of Born Free USA. This debate will take place on May 4th in New York City as part of the nationally syndicated radio program Intelligence Squared and will be aired on 200 public radio stations as well as webcast and podcast. The poll results will be part of the program and winning the poll is critical to putting these leading animal rights extremists on the defensive from the start of the program.

You can be part of our eventual victory by voting in favor of the proposition “Hunters Conserve Wildlife” by visiting http://intelligencesquaredus.o...serve-wildlife&tab=2

Participation in the poll is open to all so please vote even if you reside outside of the United States. Please also share this appeal with those in your network who you feel might be interested.

As you can see from the number of votes already cast, animal rights extremists have already mounted a campaign to drive the poll in their favor. They have the momentum but we can take it from them and set the stage for Anthony and I to show the listening public how shallow and unethical the anti-hunting position is.

Thank you for your help and for all you do to conserve our outdoor heritage.

Best,

Catherine E. Semcer

Every time I read some of the responses in the comments section on pages like this I am just amazed.

Done.

Voted.

I agree, the sheer ignorance and closed mindedness that anti's display is stunning. However, we all need to understand them, how they think ( or DON'T think) if we're to have much hope of prevailing in the long term.

Done. I normally only vote when Hillary is running.....

And therein lies one of the reasons we are losing the battle. Apathy on our side.

Guys,

Done and wrote a lengthy comment. We keep talking about a way to get the truth out there and here it is. Get with it people. With trophy hunting under severe attack we all need to support this. Make a comment and put your personal experiences in there. We've all witnessed how our dollars benefit the people and the wild life. Let the uneducated know what you've seen.

I did as well. Hopefully, they get posted.

Gentlemen, lease pass this around to everyone you know.

We must, because the votes against the Motion currently outweigh the votes in favor of it by almost 2-1. Pass it along and let's get more voting in favor of it!

Done deal!!!

It is now 3 against for every 1 for.

Done

done. read some of the comments and trying to talk to them would be the same as into the wind.......

This needs to be sent to the NRA, SCI and DSC with a request that all members vote in favor of it. I am sure that is why the votes are over 3-1 against, because the HSUS and others have asked their members to vote against it. We need our organizations involved! If each member of DSC voted for it, that would be 6,000 votes just right there! And, I tried voting twice, but it wouldn't let me!

Done.
