I posted this question on another forum and was surprised at the responses I received. What is your opinion? Should the deliberate act of deer jacking be made a felony? I mean the person who takes a light and a gun and goes out in the darkness with the sole intention of killing a deer be charged with a felony. He or she would then lose their privelage of owning, using or possessing a firearm for life. As it is now all they get is a minute fine, maybe lose their hunting license for a couple years and turned back out to do it again. Somewhere there has to be a stopper for them to think about. Small fines and license suspension isn't working. A felony charge sure would make them worry about getting caught a little more.
At the least,a $2000.00 fine, 6 month in jail and permanet loss of license should be the minimum. Also couple with that, loss of weapon used,vehicle and any other equipment in their possesion at the time of offense. Anyone with them would be charged with a felony also.
How about it, what do you hunters think?
