I've must of been asleep lately. Did this bill finally pass? If so, where can one find the language therein?
Thanks,

It passed the Senate with amendments and today it was assigned to the House Agriculture sub committee,
The Amendment is:
(SB464)[SIZE=-1] AMENDMENT(S) PROPOSED BY THE SENATE
SEN. CARRICO
- 1. Line 23, substitute, after kill
- insert
- (i) any wild bird or wild animal, including any nuisance species, on Sunday within 250 yards of a place of worship or any accessory structure or facility thereof or (ii)
[/SIZE]
Let's see if the dog hunters can screw this one up?
It may go around again to clarify exactly what a "nuisance species" is. In my book that would be:
a) Ferrel hogs
b) Coyotes
did I leave any out?

Check the game regs at DGIF. Hogs aren't on the list I don't think. There aren't enough in Va to worry with. I think Skunks are on the list to.
1) politicians
2) hoplophobes
3) feral dogs/cats
4) starlings/grackles/English sparrows
5) non-migratory Canada geese/any Canada goose found on grounds of municipal parks, airports, golf courses
6) dog hunters found armed while trespassing
That ought to start to fill out the list.
stay safe.
...cut...
Oh did I mention Dog Hunters and Military Pilots. No limit on those Sons of B&%$%es
Understand dog hunters but I'd be interested in hearing why military pilots made your list. Don't know any but I would suspect the nature of the job would breed arrogance and cockiness.

Imagine this....You're an anti social old goat that likes his peace and quiet,not bothering anyone and expecting to not be bothered... and then out of nowhere, one of those brainless little twerps comes across your farm, tree top high, full throttle. Now imagine two or three of those idiots doing it.
Happens about every six weeks and no one ever seems to know who they belong to.
The Helicopters are better. They're slow enough that they avoid me:uhoh: I got video of them and found their Commander.
So....Military Pilots, Dog Hunters and Child Molesters....This ax handle's for you!
Wednesday, 5:00 p.m., 4th Floor West Conference Room
this room needs to be packed. The chances of this bill getting a fair hearing are slim seeing how this is the same subcommittee that killed the house bills and is chaired by lee ware who has gone on record in the goochland gazette and the Richmond times dispatch as being opposed to this bill and a no vote if it gets to the house floor. our only recourse is to appeal to the members of the subcommittee to at least allow a fair hearing of the bill before the full committee. though i believe there is a reason this was assigned to this particular subcommittee.
I've got a plan. We'll discuss it tonight.:uhoh:
http://www.dgif.virginia.gov/wildlife/nuisance/
