Somebody hasn't talked to the tribe. If the weed is so think it is damming up the creek, the fish can't make it through.
The city is just using an excuse and the tribe isn't protecting the fish like they claim.

It is time for the city and tribe to get together and come up with a plan to protect the fish and homes.

No, You juyst don't get it. I have repeatedly given you examples of wherer ID is required to obtain services and exercise your rights with ID. Your only argument is that ID can be faked and voter fraud can still occurr with an ID check.
I have also repeatly pointed out that under your logic ID under any circumstance is pointless because it can be faked but it is in use everywhere.

So under your own staements I don't need ID or do a background check at the local gunstore because I can by it from a private citizen with out an ID check.
Millions of people are not losing their rights because an ID is required to obtain a ballot. If you don't like that idea we can do it like the third world countries and dip your finger in indeilible ink so you can only receive one ballot.

I will sticjk with my orignal observation that you I hit your head too many times.

How do I know?

Because you are leaning to the left> HAHA Thats a joke son.

You are misunderstanding what I am saying.

The people that volenteer for search and rescue provide a priceless service to the community and deserve many thanks and accolades. I am not questioning whether they enjoy it or not. I am not implying that the volenteers are wasting their time. quite the opposite

My point is that if you as a citizen go out in the woods unprepared, Yes it will happen, then you are wasting the volenteers time and money. It also cost the agencies time and money, the sheriff was out looking, the forest service had employees involved in the search..
This entire situatiion may have been avoided with a $50 GPS

And you don't get it and choose to ignore the facts.

The fact that you can fake an ID as no bearing on your argument. I can fake an ID and people doit all the time. But that does not mean that I do not need one to to certain things. If I want to excercise my rights to purchase a firearm I will need a picture ID to do so. Under your lack of logic because the ID can be faked nobody needs an ID to purchase a firearm. Further more requiring me to provide ID to purchase the firearm is infringing on my rights using your own logic.

You also continue to ignore the fact that if you do not require an ID to get a ballot or have an requirement to provide proofthat you are who you claim, How are you going to detect or catch fraud.

Ifg you can't figure out what HAHA means then so be it>

Your justification not to provide ID to vote/ registar are simply out of touch. And you continue to ignore my point. If you do not provide ID when you vote how are you going to detect voter fraud. Your conclusion that ID can be faked and is hence useless is silly,. If that was the case there would be no need for ID at all. for anything. That is simply not the case.

TYou are not taking away the a persons a right to vote by requiring ID. What you are doing is protecting the entire system by ensuring thatpeople that registar to vote are eligible. That you are the person in the registar receiving the ballot.

This is the government at work. They will waste it. It is what they do best.

That is the point. People spend hours training, pay for gas and gear, just to go look for someone that can't carry a map and compass or GPS. This has nothing to do with search and rescue. The people that do it are the best people on earth for taking the time out to help others.

Whatwe are talking about is that getting lost in the woods is totally avoidable. IT is a waste of effort by the volenteers. It is waste of resourses from the park service and other government agencies that support the volenteers.

These volenteers deserve to spend their time with their family, friends, or pursuing their own interests.
