Ridiculous overreach

Over regulating an industry that you should be supporting

Absolutely NO. Horrible idea.

Requiring Probable Cause for search and seizure is common sense and in line with the constitutional requirements for all other law enforcement officers.

Fully support. NH F&G does some great stuff in state with rescues and recoveries. Tough job that they execute at all hours and conditions. They erase all that good will and then some with their harassment of the outdoors public while they are recreating. If you translate their woods and water actions to the highway, it would be as if EVERY person on I93 gets pulled over by NHSP and asked for their license while their car is searched for nuclear bombs. Why would they search for nuclear bombs-because a car may be able to carry a small one. Hardly constitutional under the 4A, yet NH Fish & Game does it. They are the most hated LE organization in state with their overreach and separate interpretation of established RSAs. Make NH Fish and Game respect the outdoors public's rights and allow the sporting public to respect NH F&G by voting OTP on this bill. Until then, and to keep thing PG-13, they won't get any Christmas cards from me.
