  1. >abolish the state agency and transfer the powers, duties, and functions from TPWD and the Parks and Wildlife Commission to the Texas General Land Office, Department of Agriculture

    Everything is for sale if you’re a republican

  2. Where the hell are the don’t mess with Texas people?!

  4. How about we just finish that proposal 5 words in & sell the whole place to Canada.

  5. For those that have not worked with or around Fish and Wildlife(Game) departments, it can be a very politically diverse department. There are tons of left and right leaning workers that make up these departments.

    Fish and Wildlife departments also ensure there are plenty of game animals for the hunting and fishing seasons, which is super important for a lot of right wingers. Unmanaged game animals will quickly lead to extinction, so they can say goodbye to hunting and fishing.

  6. Drill baby, drill! (Or so I imagine they’re thinking)

  7. Decades of dystopian sci-fi books, movies and television just fell on deaf ears.

  8. >Per the bill, the Texas General Land Office would take over duties related to regulating parks, natural areas, wildlife management areas, fish hatcheries, historic sites, or other public land. The Department of Agriculture would take over duties related to native plants, wildlife, or the conservation or management of native plants or wildlife, including hunting and fishing. The Department of Public Safety would take over duties related to law enforcement, such as game wardens, enforcement of water safety, and regulation of boating vessels.

    This is too complicated. They should all just report to Trump directly. /s

  9. Because apparently, fuck natural treasures, exploit that shit!

  11. >Curry did not respond to a request for comment on what spurred the proposal.

    Of course he didn’t, because it’s just the same old “do whatever you think Trump expects you to do” thinking from these nitwits.

    They don’t have any original ideas and aren’t committed to solving real problems.

  12. God I hope this doesn’t become a national trend. For people obsessed with “making America great” you think they’d realize part of what makes the country great is its parks.

  13. Woah, slow down there! You’re supposed to lick the boots son, not deepthroat ’em!
