I personally think the rest of us should get to use poachers as SHARK BAIT!

Criminals often factor in fines/jail time as "the cost of doing business" should they get caught. It's a big ocean, and since DFW can't police all of it all the time, one's chances of getting caught are pretty low. Therefore I see the excessive fines as necessary to make the criminals reconsider their cost/benefit calculations.

I agree with you on one thing, Silbaugh. Let's not call them poachers, when in fact they are CRIMINALS

Let's use the whole definition

Silbaugh,

If you are using the online links (looks like you used dictionary.com instead of Websters), as your example, then let's use the entire definitions

Further down in dictionary.com, it also states poach as a verb, that among others includes the definition "to take game or fish illegally".

At the Webster's link, it also states "also: to take game or fish illegally".

Let's not cherry pick parts of the definition, let's source the entire definition if we are going to use a dictionary as our source

Just on a historical note, both mention the word's origin in middle England. That helps explain the "landowner" part, because back then, the land and the game upon it belonged to the lord who owned the lands.

Looks like both Websters and dictionary.com have included the more modern definition of the term. Even Oxford dictionary from England has updated it to include "Illegally hunt or catch (game or fish) on land that is not one's own, or in contravention of official protection." In this case, official protection would be the gamelaws.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/poach
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/poaching
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/us/poach


And for the record, I deplore poachers of all types, both private and commercial. You see it all the time, folk with too many lobsters, too many fish, undersized fish. All because the either think the rules don't apply to them, or think that they are the exception. It is, pure and simple, a case of where there is no sense of community or tribe. Folks are out for what benefits them alone, and to heck with how it affects those to their left and their right.

Poaching Defintion= noun
1.
the illegal practice of trespassing on another's property to hunt or steal game without the landowner's permission.
2.
any encroachment on another's property, rights, ideas, or the like.

So did they poach by definition? No, and you gladly congratulate the DFG for busting a couple OLD guys for a dozen abalone, and 3 lobsters, and yet your completely clueless on the REAL FACTS. Every single year the commercial industry has been gaining revenue and yet it hasn't rung a bell yet.

Lets explore the facts:At the height of the Abalone Commercial Fishing Industry was bringing in 2000 metric tonnes of abalone. Let's put this in perspective for you. 4,408,000 Pounds of Abalone from the Commercial fishing industry! Of course the depletion of the resource didn't happen from recreational fishermen, but from commercial fishermen. Since then farming of the abalone become a major effort since it was the commercial fishermen who F***ed up the resource. Of course they don't ban or hardly put restrictions, but started farming.

Now, lets look at commercial fishing of Spiny Lobsters, because those evil fishermen took 3 (2 weeks before the season, how dare they). Here's a paragraph I found from the Monterey Research Facility:Establishing the import and export figures for California spiny lobster is rather complicated due to the lack of delineation of the term “lobster” in most databases. However, the 2010 ex-vessel value of the California lobster fishery was $11.13 million in 2010 (CalCOFI 2011). This is up from the $7.89 million in 2009, and the previous high of $8.06 million set in 2006 (CalCOFI 2011).
The majority of the lobster caught in California is exported and shipped live (as they cannot be tailed for market) to Asian countries, particularly China, in the last several years (Barksy pers.comm. 2012).

Did you read that??? $11 Million in revenue, for 400 Metric Tonnes (881,848 lbs) of Lobster, most of which is being EXPORTED!!! You people gladly encourage exporting your resource meanwhile frown on a 75 year old guy keep 3 lobsters - 2 weeks out of season. THIS IS INSANE!!! THINK, IT AINT ILLEGAL YET!!

Wouldn't that be by definition, violating their first amendment rights? I think moderators would be better off writing a letter to cease and desist under the guidelines that if they continue to violate forum policy that they may be within their rights to ban the individuals.

You're absolutely right, if we're gonna mention illegal/ legal you can't ignore a law dictionary (blacks law).....

In English criminal law. The unlawful entry upon land for the purpose of taking or destroying game; the taking or destruction of game upon another's land, usually committed at night. Steph. Crim. Law 119, et seq.; - Sleph. Comm. 82.

Law Dictionary: What is POACHING? definition of POACHING (Black's Law Dictionary)

It's not ignorant at all, it's just an observation, just like it's an observation that more black young men do drive by shootings than young white men, even though young white men outnumber them. To think otherwise is ignorant.

Of course people of ALL races poach, there's just a tendency that seems to lean towards the very FACT that people from the far East do it more often percentage-wise as a race. To think otherwise is also ignorant.

Talking I wonder how many.............................................. ......

Lobster & abalone the "old" guys took before they got caught,or maybe the old guy played by the rules his whole life and said F... it...I'm going to eat an abalone dinner before I die.....all the more reason to have a lottery for the taking of abalone

Last year over a dozen judges, and 450 (yes you read that right 450!) prosecutors were thrown off cases for corruption! And people keep worshipping the state!

They said these guys had 3 lobsters (2 weeks out of season), and 12 abalone. I pointed out how the commercial fishing industry wrecked the abalone and had to result to farming to keep up with commercial demands 4,400,000 lbs of abalone fished. And lobster brought in almost 900,000 lbs (same numbers it did in the 60's. Meanwhile, we're exporting most of these two things to China, Vietnam, etc. So nobody gets pissed at millions of pounds of our resources being exported for profits, and yet are outraged over 3 lobster and a dozen abalone??

And at the same time, misuse the word poach, negating the legal definition of the word


The Cognitive Dissonance is so thick in the chat I could cut it with a spoon!!!

DEEP? DEEP?

I think we have gone off the deep end here!


A poaching thread turned into Asian poachers, scientific graphs, constitutional rights, learning about the definition of certain words, black drive by shootings, doubling down on Asian poachers, public official corruption, conspiracy theory, memes by the meme King...

What next?!
