This is history now. The EPA denied the petition of the tree hugger group. The EPA said they did not have the authority to regulate this and were not seeking to get the authoriity. This whole thing was a failed attempt by PETA and the Humane Society to stop hunting and fishing in the United States. We must however remain vigilant in matters like this and vote for leaders who will not cave to these extremist idiots.
