For fishers, the take-home message in all this is to stand up to animal rights extemism when other, legitimate animal-use groups eg hunters, are being attacked by the extremists. Sitting back and thinking;"Well, they aren't hurting me, so I won't take a stand" just doesn't cut it. The quote, "The future is already here; it's just not evenly distributed" comes to mind. We should expect that our future is Britain's present and act accordingly when we encounter any AR campaign that offends or intrudes upon legitimate animal uses...TIM
