Elk hunting case before the Supreme Court

You guys see this.

Bunch of BS if you ask me. How long are we going to have separate rules for different groups in this country? Another 10 years? 100 years?
One of the most interesting parts of the case, in my opinion, is the fact that most of the animals these native Americans poached were wasted. Oh, and the fact that one of them was a game warden.

would say that's exactly right. the poaching game warden said he was doing it to feed his family and the game warden who caught him found an elk "only thing that had been taken was a little bit of backstraps and head had been removed". Now this doesn't mean it's the same poacher, but definitely shady.

Was fly fishing a blue ribbon trout stream in Idaho that was catch and release single barbless hook and came upon a Native American gentleman using corn and yanking 20+ inch cutthroat trout out of the same hole. Had them with a stick through the gills like old times. My local friend said they do not obey any WLF laws.

Seems like we can let them have at least one win

I'm just going to play Devil's Advocate here. You do remember that many of these people were run of their lands by European settlers, right? And that many of them were forced to settle on reservations, sometimes outside of their Nation's home territory?
Many tribes were given some form of hunting and fishing rights. Trying to say "times have changed, frick you" would be a bad move right now, and ultimately would be a huge loss for the US Government. The backlash would be extraordinary.
Now, if they are going to go off the reservation to hunt, and claim that if is "subsistence hunting", then they should be taking every bit of meat. Cutting off the head and only taking the backstrap should immediately invalidate their tribal hunting and fishing rights and make them culpable under state and federal hunting laws.
In this case, he should be hit with poaching. If he had taken all of the animal back to feed his family, I'd have no problem with this. But it just stinks of an Indian trying to hid behind the guise of "I'm an Indian, I'm trying to feed my family".

Time for this to be over with. Plenty of abuses of Indian hunting rights. Just not much publicity about it. Really bad in Canada.

I agree.
The time for those reparations has past.

As long as these are legit Indians and are properly processing what they kill I don’t have a huge beef.
I am more bitter about hunting laws in general being cryptic as shite and I despise the increasing feeling that we need a written decree to harvest his highnesses royal game animals.

Last year I saw a pic on the hard core waterfowler group on face book. These dudes had about 150 green wings piled up in a boat. Upon questioning it revealed they were native North Americans and it was considered substance hunting.
Ridiculous.
