I am sure that almost every animal and fish out there feels pain. Heck, how do we know that a blade of grass doesn't feel pain when we step on it?

There is no way that they will ban Rockfishing in Maryland because people would be up in arms. Plus, it sets a pretty tough precedent because if Rockfish can feel pain, I would assume that all other fish can feel pain. Quite honestly, I would prefer to be hooked in the lip and pulled around for a little, versus being shot. I guess they are starting from the bottom up. If they can get this passed against fishing, hunting should be easy.

People do not have enough to worry about. This country is really starting to get pathetic. We should hand these idiots a rifle and drop them in the middle of Iraq.
