Ark Couple arrested for making Deer Tamales.

Exactly.  They weren't arrested for making deer tamales.

The facts wouldn't fit the agenda though.

Original article says they had multiple violations.  "Buying & Selling wildlife", was among those.  When you are selling Tamales with deer meat in them.... that is the selling part.  He wasn't buying deer meat, putting it in Tamales, & giving it away for free.  There would be no need for him to illegally buy the deer meat....if he wasn't using it in his Tamales.  If he hadn't been making deer Tamales, he would not have been arrested.  None of the violations he was charged with, would have ever taken place.

Capt. of the AGFC, said the man was "gathering all the illegal deer meat he could get".  Hard to keep a Tamale stand business afloat, if you are not selling the meat you buy.

Right.  They weren't arrested for making deer tamales.  Making deer tamales is perfectly legal.

Heard next week they will have a chicken pot pie on the menu made with woodpeckers.  Should be tasty.

Gee....hope they remove the bills on those woodpeckers before they stick them in those "Woodpecker pot pies"........specially if any are the "Ivory" billed ones , that Uncle Ivan mentioned.  Those dudes could really be expensive.  That Tamale stand better stick with deer meat...or they will be the one that is extinct...

Lol.... You may want to read the article carefully.  It talks about it being illegal to sell wild game.  Not sure what you don't understand about the "Selling" part of that.  Selling deer Tamales is illegal, & that is what they were doing with the deer meat they bought from undercover wildlife officers.....& were selling at their Tamale stand.

I did.  That's what led me to posting that the misleading thread title is misleading.

You won't get arrested for making deer tamales.  That's just a fact.

They did.....& that's a fact.

Its not just making deer tamales.....its selling them.  Anybody can make deer Tamales......as long as you don't..."buy" ...or ...."sell" them.  They did both.

So, in your world it's illegal to MAKE deer tamales.

Got it.

You are very aware of what I was saying multiple times....what the article said, & what the AGFC said... was illegal.  Everything the Tamale stand was doing....was illegal.   From the buying, to the preparing for sale, (making) & to the selling. 

[Dillar Dog]

Yes I was.  I'm not sure you were aware of what I've been saying since my first post on this misleading thread.

No one was arrested for MAKING deer tamales.

Give it a damn break.  Maybe the thread title should have been worded differently.  Who give a rat's ass?  This ain't the Politics Forum. 

[Dillar Dog]

Yes.  Maybe it should have.

Thank you.

So If some one gives me a wild hog to make sausage out of and I charge him for the sausage I am breaking the law cause a wild hog is a game animal just like a deer.

Arkansas (& many other states) do not consider feral (wild) hogs as a game animal, like they do deer & many other types of wildlife.  You can hunt hogs year round, & can even leave them where they are shot if you choose. There would be no game laws you would be breaking.  If you are selling the (hog) meat you are processing, then you would more than likely need a permit/license from the Health dept, or similar agency.  Probably the same type of permit, etc., a processing plant needs... when you bring in a deer to get processed.  There would have to be some kind of regulation, if you were processing for sale.

[DeltaBoy]

Yep I understand that Mr. Brown who used to process meat for folks in Monroe County was a former butcher and had a Health Permit in his office.

[HogBreath]

IMO the State entrapped them.  Glad they are back in business.

Me too...this has gotten me hungry for some of those good ole deer tamales...wonder if you can get them shipped, I'm too far from Pangburn to drive up. 

Do they have a web site where you can order some or maybe call them and get a few dozen delivered?

[DeltaBoy]

I not sure and after their troubles I would not dare ship any lest the USPO gets after them.
