    The argument that rifle hunting is a big safety issue doesn’t hold any water.

    Actually Collin does do some research. Cant shoot on land less than 10 acres, Talked at length to the Sheriff about this. It was passed several years ago. meant for shotgun bird hunters. You have to keep a bullet or projectile on your land or its illegal.

      Actually you should read through the whole thread where I said “huntable” land. Below 10 acres isn’t legally huntable with a firearm. And trespass by projectile has been law throughout the entire state for 15+ years. Not new anywhere-including Collin.

        It looks like that law only applies to subdivisions. The definition of subdivision is a bunch of legal jumbo jumbo though.

            I thought they were supposed to get away from regulations by county and move to DMU like other states do but for whatever reason its never happened.

            Thank you, had no idea

            So if a property owner ANYWHERE else in the state of Texas enrolls in MLD they can basically not play by the rules everyone else has to play by (gun hunt from Oct to Feb, don't use tags off of license like the rest of us, etc), why can't the properties in these 4 counties not do the same?

Safety grievances are very real. Collin county had over 700 instances last year regarding bullets crossing property lines hitting personal properties or people. I don't have the Grayson numbers but i know its not 0. Nothing to worry about folks. Pig hunters and target shooters aren't dangerous so neither will deer hunters using guns.
              How are bullets crossing property lines if there is no gun hunting for deer?

Thank you sir.

                  Also, that gate being shot was not done intentionally. If it was, the shooter would have had to use two different rounds and intentionally shot in different areas of the gate while laying or sitting on a county road. The trajectory was too flat to be someone standing or shooting from a car window. I also have posted signs and an address sign on the gates. No holes. Possibly they are too easy to shoot? Maybe it was a 3 foot tall guy that liked the challenge of shooting a small target so he walked up and shot my gate? Or maybe the bullets came from another property. We will never know.
                  So to be clear, you're claiming that at the same time that you're desperately trying to convince everyone that stray bullets are going to be incredibly dangerous if deer hunting is allowed (an argument that even several of your compatriots have admitted is extremely weak), your gate managed to take 3 stray bullets from two different rounds? And in your "expert" opinion there's no way it could be intentional? Man, that's beyond convenient for your argument, and honestly downright unbelievable. Might be time to change your screen name to Jussie.

                    The real question to me is how a guy who's pushing hard against gun hunting by arguing something that's almost a non-factor somehow pops up with 3 perfect examples of how dangerous it is on his own front gate. I'm not saying that people shouldn't be safe and responsible, and I'm not claiming that stray bullets never happen, but I don't at all believe that this guy is going all-in on using the very weak "stray bullet" argument, and coincidentally happens to have had 3 stray bullets from two different calibers magically just hit his front gate.

                      When y'all go to the meeting tonight remember Biden says deer don't wear kevlar, no one needs weapons that strong.

                      The 2a is being attacked through hunting. Y'all vote to reduce gun rights

                        Nothings being reduced by keeping the rules as is, you haven't been able to legally hunt deer in these counties with a firearm since Hitler was around.

                            Are you not able to contact local LEO & game warden if this is happening often & not one time rare situation?
                            They can probably sort out direction of fire & investigate and make contact with land owner/leasee to address this perhaps

                              It always makes me chuckle to see grown men get so butt hurt over a deer.

                                When a sitting member on an advisory board is using his position for personal gain and gain for his client it’s nothing to chuckle about.
