And I keep trying to get the point across that I do realize that it was just a hog. What you are missing, and the deer point analogy was a attempt to get that across, is that he has no right to SELECTIVELY obey the regulations.
Whether or not you find it acceptable the fact that many in Fl find wild hogs a welcome bonus as a second big game animal bears not in the least on the question of his actions being illegal......and objectionable to many other hunters using the WMA.
Do you understand that.....the principle in it?
You have just got to get past the HOG part of the problem here....
