Earlier today “Terry the Wolf” and other concerned citizens gathered today outside a Chamber of Commerce breakfast at the Holiday Inn in Eau Claire where Republican State Sen. Terry Moulton was scheduled to do a little speechifying. Sen. Moulton, who is the target of a recall election, was focused like a laser on job creation during the last legislative session, as evidenced by his efforts to pass SB411, which authorizes the Department of Natural Resources to establish a season for the hunting of wolves, as well as AB334, which would allow motorists who run over and kill boar, wild turkey, or certain small game animals to keep the roadkill, if they so choose.
I’m not entirely sure how hunting wolves and allowing drivers to keep roadkill will create jobs, but apparently Sen. Moulton thinks he’s found the panacea for Wisconsin’s job woes.
Here’s a few photos from the event:
What do you mean these bills won’t create jobs?
There are vital American liberties under immediate threat if these bills are not passed. Everyone knows that Big Bad wolves routinely impersonate grandmothers in order to collect social security checks and reap medicare benefits, that’s just fraud!! All that huffing and puffing violates personal property rights guaranteed by the Constitution – I’ve personally experienced being told that someone’s second cousin’s ex-wife’s brother-in-law had his house completely blown in and then his insurance rates went up and so did his taxes. Wolves don’t believe in individual liberty because they travel in packs. That means they’re socialist werewolves!!! That means they’re changelings, so you gotta get ‘em in season before they change back. You know West Virginia has a roadkill cook-off? Now if we had something like that here, we’d create hundreds of thousands of jobs, but we can’t do that if the government won’t let people keep what they kill. Besides that’s their own property. If the government can seize people’s roadkill what will they take next? What if I hit a critter? Who’s gonna get that critter off the road? Some public union worker whose salary and benefits I’M paying for when I can clear away my own critter? Why should I let some union thug steal my critter?
See. You just have to use conservative logic and it all makes irrefutable sense.
Not one whisper about this event in the Leader Telegram, yet every time that hideous buffoon, Brian Westrate, opens his trap it’s three columns on page two. Go figure.
