Nope, and my name is on several deeds in two counties, both of which have laws, regulations, and policies which somewhat differ. I respect and obey those for my own rights as well as for the rights of others and something called the "rights of the public". If those restrictions seem unfair, I study the when, why and wherefore and go to my elected representative with a reasonable argument to revise them. I don't just tell him or her I'll do what I want on my property and gubment and laws are bad.
I do the same.
Thank you for speaking in your native tongue in that last sentence.
"Six weeks later, an assistant attorney at the U.S. District Court of Wyoming discussed the case with someone in the criminal division. The attorneys concluded they would have a “difficult time convicting” the Jackson Hole resident of feeding grizzlies because she stated she placed feed for moose, and not the bears. With that, the U.S. Attorney’s Office declined to prosecute. Absent violations of state law, they recommended the case be closed.
The plight of DeBolt and Stoinski’s case highlights the difficulty of prosecuting and stopping backyard wildlife feeding in Wyoming, where the state legislature has declined on multiple occasions to criminalize an activity that’s often condemned by wildlife managers.
Rep. Andy Schwartz, a Teton County Democrat, has attempted to pass a state law banning such wildlife feeding. He last introduced a bill when the Wyoming Legislature convened in 2016. That bill did not make it out of committee because conservative Republican lawmakers were not interested in infringing on people’s private property rights, Schwartz told the News&Guide."
What she is doing is in no way beneficial to anyone or any animal, but clearly she has rights and if she is to be prosecuted most likely a new law would have to be put in place. I dont agree with that law.
I live out in the middle of nowhere. I put out bird feeders and I think thats completely ok. Someplace where there is grizz or something that might not be ok, but I'm not gonna tell someone it's ok for me to put out bird feeders on my property but its not ok for you to put them on YOUR property. That would make me a hypocrite.
If I lived somewhere with an ordinance like that I would follow it, but that doesn't mean I have to agree with it. I agree that its not a good idea to put out food in that area I just don't agree with a law telling a property owner what they can and can't do on their property. I also think if someone wants to do certain things they should buy property where they can do it without city or HOA ordinances to worry about.
