A Republican Congresswoman who has been “missing” for the past six months has finally been found.
Rep. Kay Granger has served as the representative for Texas’s 12th Congressional District since 1997.
However, she suddenly disappeared from the public eye around July this year, when she cast her final vote against an amendment to reduce the salary of Deputy Assistant Administrator for Pesticide Programs to $1.
A curious reporter at the local Dallas Express newspaper did some digging on Granger’s whereabouts and has finally been able to give her constituents some answers.
[…]We then received a tip from a Granger constituent who shared that the Congresswoman has been residing at a local memory care and assisted living home for some time after having been found wandering lost and confused in her former Cultural District/West 7th neighborhood.
The Dallas Express team visited the facility to confirm whether Granger was residing there and to inquire about how she planned to vote on the spending bill. Upon arrival, two employees confirmed that Granger is indeed living at the facility.
I can see your angle on not hurting the licensing agency, but I could also see it as a tactic to make it all so inoperable that licenses effectively become unnecessary. A temporary order to not enforce licenses starts making it normal. It’s a stretch.
Unlicensed hunting leads to culling to much of a species in an area and ultimately it dying out. For the most part, even the dumb hunters understand if you kill to many this year hunting, there won’t be anything to hunt moving forward. So they wouldn’t want to chance not having the ability to hunt anything anymore I imagine. Same thing goes for the fishing and such. Though invasive species such as lionfish should be open season year round. But that is commonly done with diving gear, nets and spears usually because they have poisonous spines on them. (They do taste delicious though). They started an annual lionfish contest at a place I lived at about 7 years ago, so they had enough to feed everyone who came.
I’d be more concerned with sadistic tourist trophy hunters. Stuff like the multi-millionaires doing illegal African game hunts, but the local multi-hundred-thousandaires instead. But yeah, let’s hope there’s enough sensible hunters to help maintain any deregulation issues. And all this is IF it’s even at risk.
But who fuckin knows. You’d think clean air would be a safe bet to maintain as a positive, but big oil is getting their way both with the government and the propaganda to convince society it’s a masculine right to stroke the gas pump cock.
