As an aside, Saw the same thing in Georgia and Florida and Alabama recently... cept it was about oysters.
Florida officials and seafood workers contend that damage to Apalachicola Bay estuary and its seafood industry already has been caused by historic low flows from Woodruff Dam along the Florida-Georgia line. The low flows last year were provided for in a drought operations plan approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
“There have been detrimental effects on the bay from the reductions in shrimp harvesting, the die off of oyster bars, the number of fish in the bay, not getting the spring flood we needed at crucial times during the year to supply the nutrients to the estuary and bay,” said Joseph “Smokey” Parrish, who is co-manager of Buddy Ward & Sons shrimp processing plant in Apalachicola.

Did you read the facts? There was a lawsuit filed three years ago. I am against animal killing for any reason, but I suppose Native American religious parctices must be given the same rights as other religions. At least they are not killing them just for the sake of sport.
Because we had a hard time bringing them back from the brink...I am sick of these barbaric "religions" and their outdated rituals. These are the people of the earth...yeah right. Where are the animal rights warriors on this one? PETA...hello? Those beautiful birds, what a pity. Oh on another note regarding the people of the earth...I have one of the puppies that you so thoughtlessly tossed on a snow covered road up in norther AZ a year ago to die along with his litter mates...he is fine now and very happy.
Ya, those cute little calves , confined in a pen where they can only turn in circles until they're killed....but oh that good veal!

Believing that killing some beautiful creature like a bald Eagle to satisfy some outdated and insignificant religious beliefs. So go ahead kill all the bald Eagles you want. Won't change anything lol.
So OTHER people's religion is out dated??? But not yours????
ALL religion is outdated but the EAGLE is the symbol of American FREEDOM....freedom to worship as you want.....within the law.....

I would say that is consistent, as it symbolically reflects the fact that his presidency has been killing America. Killing the symbol of America, the bald eagle, would be perfectly appropriate.

Perhaps building farms in what is basically desert wasn't that great of an idea to begin with?

Kill all the Native Americans, problem solved. Not like we haven't tried. Trail of Tears - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wait, I'm part Native American. I don't think I've thought my cunning plan through.
