Thats is awsome to finally see some strict enforcement of poaching laws. I am a firm believer that rules need to be enforced if they exist. They got what they deserved, although I wish it were a tad bit steeper penalty. The bad part of this is more negative press for Washington hunters. This reinforces the stereotype that has been set by the anti hunting crowd in Washington. The poachings in Anacortes, the kid who thaught the lady was a bear, and the "killem all boys". Those are the stories that gulable stereotypers are hearing, associating with hunting, and warping their mind out of our favor.
