NJ bear hunt protester gets 10 days - outside protest zone

1
72 year-old man reportedly sentenced to 10 days in jail for protesting New Jersey bear hunt outside the designated “free speech zone”.

"Crain, of Dutchess County, N.Y., admitted he walked along the road by a state Department of Environmental Protection weigh station in Fredon, Sussex County, where hunters were bringing dead bears, and refused to return to the area set aside for protesters.

Devine, though sentencing Crain to the 10-day term, spoke favorably of him from the bench.

"I do appreciate the manner in which Dr. Crain goes about his business," Devine said. "Dr. Crain has always comported himself with dignity and nonviolence, which I applaud him for.""

Protesting at the weigh stations. Isn't that a bit closing the barn doors after the horses have gotten out, joined a wild herd, sired young, and gotten culled for overpopulation?
People are just bored, they need hobbies, they should consider taking up hunting.

But I got a video to prove that bears are friendly. It's on youtube so it must be real.

There is a video circulating by a man who thought he was brother to the bear. Turned out he was lunch.

He got the wrong bear, that's all. His brother was on the other side of the forest.
Glad that federal government is boring again.
