The bottom line is that the attacker was out of line. What if it had been two young kids walking thru his property. Would he have done the same thing. Like it has been said no one was there but them. The DNR gets paid to uphold our game laws. What they say goes! If he was arrested and charged by the county attorney their reports had to have indicated that he was beyond the normal routine encounter and assulted both officers as they have said. Even if they had been tresspassers he would have still been arrested for attacking them on his property or not. Frustrating to say the least for a landowner to have someone tresspassing but not the way to handle the problem even if the outcome is not to our liking. People need to grow up and live in the real world. When you use violence as a measure of redemption you usually get that in return. Let the courts decide. If he is innocent a jury of his peers will decide.

There's no irony in Longspurs's post just fact.

Just fact??? On a public forum??? Hmmm... I must of missed the swear in ceremony over the Bible when I registered here. (<-- That's a smarmy, facetious statement.)
I'm not disputing Longspurs "facts". I just pointed out, no offense intended, that Longspurs post was, well, ironic.
Just in case anyone doesn't know the meaning of irony, I took the liberty of fetching the definition from the Webster dictionary website.

Back40 I don't consider someone that high powers six people in the same catogory as someone who knocks another person to the ground. Bottom line is like said before. We don't know what happened. If the guy jumped on him for no reason or if the CO was being a prick before he introduced himself. No One Knows.
