What happened to Folks like this on the TPWD Commission?

(just digging through some of my "stuff")
Quote:

I would like to quote Commissioner, Mark E. Watson, from Nov. 17, 1999 Regulations Committee Meeting.

(I should preface this by acknowledging that Mr. Watson’s comment was in reference to a request by the Doss Wildlife Management Association’s request to shift the hunting season dates. )

Mr. Watson stated…”Well, you know I’ve had obviously a little more exposure to this, this specific thing than some other people may have had, and I agree with the Chairman (Mr. Bass). You know, I just don’t think we ought to go and start cutting up different parts of the state just because, you know, a coop thinks that they want us to set the rules that they ought to be setting for their own members. If they can’t -- if they can’t police their own membership, you know, I don’t think we ought to have to do it for them.”


We need more Commissioners like Mr Watson.
