KNOBTAIL

that cops were pigs, not in any thread or certainly not in any post that I wrote. Incidently the violation that I was referring to is just that, a violation not a crime. Also, I think your a bit confused about " cops are out to get them" No one said that either. What I did say was that fish and wildlife seem to have a hard-on for herp people. I have experienced that , not from my attitude, but from theirs.

Also, just to finish this thread, I am a retired Police officer, so Ive seen both sides of the coin. I know how to deal fairly with people, but in any profession, their are always over-zelous people who feel they can take whatever actions are necessary whether legal or not, and that is something we have to be very vigilant of. In this particular case my purpose for starting the thread was just to inform the herp community.
