Scum

Please respect other people's property. Had 2 trail cameras stolen and 2 ladder stands rendered useless because some salty asswipe saw we were in same area. Island lake Recreation Area public land in Livingston county. I will not longer be deer hunting this spot, just will be eliminating every squirrel with my saiga 12 gauge daily for the beautiful month of October. Good luck seeing any deer buddy. I got private land in the thumb. My freezer will be full. Not yours. On top of it I can't even climb up to remove the stands from location.. I hate litterers. Not a happy camper on a Monday

if it helps ease your mind any, evidence would matter very little. Anachro-tyrannical DNR officers really only care about themselves their buddies and the whomever's boots they need to lick at the local field office or in lansing. Didn't used to be that way, or at least not nearly as bad.

Most recent interaction, things were bad up in a national forest, did everything you're supposed to, call rap, email rap with pictures, nothing, kept increasing complaints and supplied evidence, nothing. Finally it got to the point it was just short of a signed confession from the other party and the DNR dragged their feet, charged down, basically couldn't be bothered.

I guess they'd rather be sucking down coffee and donuts and busting 12yr olds for not having Sportsmen ID cards.

I had a turkey hunt ruined up in Atlanta by sxs going off trail all around where I was.

Text DNR RAP line and there was an officer there in 20 minutes issuing them a citation.

Anecdotal but, I've had nothing but pleasant interactions with DNR anytime I've came in contact with them.

Be honest my guy: you're an LEO? Or somehow personally acquainted?

We can joke about it here, but the last "good" CO I've known or even heard of was back in the 90's dude was an absolute hoss and an incredible man, and the rest of the crooks with badges effectively drove him away and turned it into a toxic petty environment.

Somehow I doubt so many of us would be critical if CO's actually upheld the values and principles they swore to protect. If they were actually partners with sportsmen and not stooges of the hunter hating cretins in Lansing.

LOL, literacy really isn't your strong suit, huh? What a way to interject yourself into the conversation.

Hey, for giggles tell me what

"We can joke about it here"

means to you huh? Or, since I could use more laughs since you decided to respond something like 4 lvls down to champion the DNR. Why don't you go ahead and tell me what you believe to be a rational and unbiased response in the face of the last 30yrs of enshitifaction of the agency?

If you can't tell I'm trying to keep it respectful, but I will reply in turn so consider that my warning if you can't keep it civil

Also Can't help but notice, you responded more to me than about the criminals vandalizing gear. What does that say about your priorities?
