A gift to our children........where do these people come from!

The "Pew Foundation" is behind a lot of these closures. Although it is officially an independent organization it was founded by family and money associated with Sun Oil. SUNOCO. Their power comes in their ability to divide us, as already stated in another post "the far left" is to blame. Divide and conquer by using the media to make some of us feel "smarter" than the others. Not wanting to get into a pissing match is why so many of us just read and move on. In Florida the "official hearings" by government officials where our "fish quotas, and limits" are decided have actually been funded by the Pew Foundation. They have reserved the room, paid for the meals, and transportation of the officials to attend!! Their goal is to stop ALL fishing and as much human activity in the Oceans as possible. They do not let any facts stand in their way. When they insisted the Gulf of Mexico red snapper were all juveniles with no adults capable of reproduction, we provided ear bones of recently caught snapper that were over 20 years old, when they said the younger fish were no where to be found, we provided evidence that the young fish were everywhere. They then said it was to their credit as they had kept the fishery shut down for so long and the shut down needs to continue.........and on and on and on. Red snapper are all over the gulf, and the extreme limits continue. Oh well, I've had my rant!!!
