Lund letter: IDFG Discrimination

I would like to ask the Idaho Legislature to put a short-term hold on plans to deny Idaho Department of Fish and Game employees the ability to apply for hunting tags. I want to use that time to get a law degree and pass the Idaho State Bar exam. This would be my best opportunity to become wildly rich, by sharing, in the lawsuit proceeds when those Fish and Game employees file a civil rights action for denial of their rights to apply, as members of the public, for tags.

I very much support the efforts to deny those rights, to apply for tags, for the reasons given. I am simply asking for a short time to get my lawyer shingle.
