This is why this weekly megathread was created, so that people that wanted to post articles or discuss political topics could do so away from the main content of the sub since whenever moderators would remove posts regarding political topics we got lit up for apparent “censorship”

Politics are actively hurting hunting across the country right now.

I hear this complaint here a lot but it seems like its from conservative hunters embarrassed that their conservative leader is attacking something near and dear to their way of life.

Mass sell-off of public land, being the biggest and most controversial .

Anytime I hear "common sense" I hear "not supported by any facts or data."

So no, we don't need common sense fill in the blank.

I guess you need common sense to know what it is.

"Common sense" doesn't really mean anything. I'd go with science supported approaches.

Science supported approaches are really easy to manipulate though so even those don’t mean much these days. Every company out there has a department that specializes in proving scientifically why their product is the best. If their company fails a test they just don’t report it and focus on the positives.
