I hope the eco-taliban don't car bomb Richards.

Nice to see the F&G commissioners at least have a couple members who are grounded in reality.

He'll be a one term Commissioner. It has been observed that Richards is the laziest of all the Commissioners. He has shown up to Commission Meetings and admitting to not having read through the requisite materials. Obviously, he has not read through Prop 84, nor does he understand the difference between discretionary and non-discretionary budget items.

1/2 full or 1/2 empty? I dont think we should be busting on a guy that appears to be trying to help. Not on a pro fishing forum. Better to put this comment on PETA's website Stevo.

"see I told you so"

"In the April or May meeting, he basically verbally abused a Green Peace guy during the public speaking session. The entire room was aghast over his comments and that included fellow Commissioners"


I remember that exchange. The guy from Greenpeace was speaking in support of Proposal 4 (the most restrictive). In the course of his speech he advocated closing 50% of the Coast as being economically beneficial. After he was done speaking, before he left the podium Commissioner Richards asked him if he heard him correctly, if he was really saying it was responsible to protect 50% of the ocean. The Greenpeace guy said yes, that was what he was saying. Commissioner Richards responded, "Really?...........Then you are not very credible". That's hardly verbal abuse. The only reaction I heard in the room was from a couple enviro ladies as the wind went out of their sails.

oh shit.

Now we have a Commissioner doing what he feels is right versus worrying about getting appointed to another term.

We are screwed for sure.
