People just do not listen

[Mr. 16 gauge]

They know the rules but consciously break them anyway.

I think that this is more the gist of it than anything else.....people don't like a rule, then the hell with it.....it doesn't apply to them, and they do as the please.

....and then they gripe if they get caught & there are consequences.....just look at some of the threads out there on various websites (not just hunting and fishing websites), and you'll find this to be quite a typical thread in some instances.
Example: "I was ticketed because I was running my wave runner and the *$%#&$ DNR gave me a ticket because I was going too fast in a no wake zone!"
..."Did you know that it was a no wake zone?"

...."Yeah, but I didn't think that they'd be out there! I've done it before and didn't get caught!"

The list goes on and on.....................

The gamelands range rules are posted at every shooting bench on the line. Proper shooting times are item #1. The Deputy Warden reviewed the shooting times after he wrote up the offenders. All the best...

It's just that sort of mindset that caused the Virginia Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries to start closing their ranges from April 1st through August 31st. They used to keep the ranges open year around and they were free to everyone. A few jackasses ruined it for everyone.
