Maine’s longstanding ban on Sunday hunting is a good idea. It represents tried and true public policy that has withstood the test of time. It works. Nonetheless a handful of people who think otherwise are now using a newly enacted constitutional amendment to bootstrap their ambition into a “right” to wander around someone else’s privately owned property seven days per week with loaded firearms. I say to the plaintiffs join the rest of the general public which tolerates modest infringement of rights here and there, in exchange for the common good. ~ Scott Cole, Bethel
