I want a follow up on the feud that is about to get going. Awful risky business. ( Edit : The neighbors may not be getting along after being turned in )

Bummer to hear about a poaching situation... But glad the meat will go to good use!

PI, what's the feud. They donate all the time out here, especially a moose kill. What's funny is it can't go to the jails or homeless shelters anymore.

Xi- The neighbor ratting on a neighbor may not end well. Stationary target and all. Apparently the poacher is a good shot ...
I fully approve of the good work of the enforcing agency .
There is a lot of that poaching business going on . I have seen too much of it .

Shot on Gooseberry Ln. , had all the neighbors written permission because the deer are a problem. Neighbors saw he had a corn pile and reported him for attracting all the deer with his corn. He tried to say the corn was for birds and squirrels. This is directly from WSPD.
