More Trump-murica' Pride!!   In Montana!  Of course, since there are so many illegal Canadians trying to sneak in....

https://www.yahoo.com/news/u-citizens-were-detained-border-101824943.html




The American Civil Liberties Union said Monday it is looking into an incident in which a Border Patrol agent detained and questioned a woman and her friend — both U.S. citizens — when he overheard them speaking Spanish at a gas station in Montana.  "He just requested my ID. I looked at him like, ‘Are you serious?’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, very serious.’ ” and he says it is specifically because he heard them speaking Spanish.

The ACLU on Monday said speaking Spanish is not a valid reason for a Border Patrol agent to question or detain someone.
“The broader picture … goes back to accountability at the agency,” Dominguez said. “Is this the way they’re targeting people? It is an issue, and it needs to be addressed.”

This is just terrible news. The GOP has taken a sizable lead in the generic Congressional election poll?

That's a great meme, and (probably contrary to your intention) actually cheered me up a little.   Star Wars is a classic archetype story, and while Kenobi did fall, he set the stage to bring down the Empire.  The Dark Side always loses, eventually.

Hiibel v. Sixth Judicial District Court of Nevada, 542 U.S. 177 (2004), is a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that statutes requiring suspects to disclose their names during police investigations did not violate the Fourth Amendment if the statute first required reasonable and articulable suspicion of criminal involvement

From an old article, this almost looks like more of a states rights issue.

https://www.adn.com/outdoors/article/feds-ban-several-controversial-hunting-practices-preserves-alaska/2015/10/23/

"States Rights" is a little general, but I agree it is more of an "Alaska State Rights" issue, or at least a "state agreement" issue.  Alaska is different for a lot of reasons, and so does have some special agreements on various topics.   But in the abstract,  these rules apply (applied...) only to Federal lands, not State lands, and so the Feds do have the authority.  However, as Alaska is vastly Federal land, there have been previous agreements and it is those agreements that they feel were broken, not their inherent rights.   I do think all states should have some local control, but some overriding regulations already exists for various animals.  It's a matter of striking a balance.

To the actual regulations, as an avid hunter it is appalling to me that they would allow shooting bears (or any animal) in their den.  Also, seasonal regulations in general - to protect while raising young, etc, have proven to be good restrictions since the '20s.   The baiting aspect is not as big a deal, as we allow baiting of deer and pigs (and bears, I think) in OK as well.

(Interesting side note on baiting.   Apparently you CAN bait Turkey in the Fall, but not in the Spring, if I read the regulations correctly recently.  Also, while using bacon and donuts is easy to make fun of, the hog food attractants they sell here in OK are basically "treats" in whatever form the animal likes.  Fat and sugar attract carnivors.)
