Marihuana at Hunting Camp.

That is really the law? Straight out that is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard. I hunt till the end of legal light and I keep my gun loaded and ready to fire until I am back at my vehicle and I have the doors open, even if it's a 2 hour hike. Even then I don't unload it till I have all my gear off and in the vehicle. We have animals around here that actually hunt at night and could easily mistake me as prey. You don't have black bears and wolves out east? I'm not allowed to shoot anything after legal light unless it attacks me but I'm sure not going to be charged with a crime for carrying a loaded gun to protect myself after dark. As far as I know I can even legally discharge a gun after dark if I feel like it, as long as I do it safely and not at game animals. I'm sure glad I don't live out there. Nanny state for sure.


Certainly more rare out this way, but a factor nonetheless.

Note, these are only fatalities, not attacks.

If hunting in an area with fresh bear sign, it’s a rule I ignore until I reach the truck. Internet mall-cops can label me however they please.


Aaaaand random pic to pretend we’re still on topic:

My brother in law was coming back to his truck after an afternoon hunt a few years ago, the conservation officer was waiting at his truck and informed him that it was five minutes after legal hunting time, (he misjudged the time it would take to get back to his vehicle) his rifle was seized and he had to pay a $150 fine and appear in court. Technically in N.B. if you lean a loaded firearm against your vehicle you can be charged with having a loaded firearm in a vehicle.
 
I didn't realize I was hiding a thing. Here in Alberta our ridiculous rule is no atvs before noon.

The fact you like the rule is baffling, yet predictable. It does make sense for an easterner to want rules to make sure he doesn't break rules. Explains our gun laws.

I said it’s not a stupid rule, meant to expand.... it’s a stupid law... The point I was driving at is that we do have some stupid laws, and some of us do fight them through proper channels.... Not being willing to just defy them because we don’t like them and don’t want to be fined etc doesn’t mean we like them...

Btw, I agree... no atv’s until noon is a very stupid rule.... Is this only on public land?

That generally happens on a topic with almost 800 posts. Probably the only thing you're gonna get on this thread in regard to pot is more bong pics.
