Yesterday I took my husband's travel trailer to the UP of Michigan to his bear camp.

There was signs on a lot of restaurants, motels and other businesses welcoming the bear hunters.

Yes he did. However it doesn't seem to matter with the whining liberal, anti hunting types. After all, why should facts get in the way?

The facts are that the guys who arranged the hunt are still in a lot of trouble … and that the Minnesota guy has been in trouble in the past regarding his hunting practices …
