text: AK Hunter, if you don't believe BHA and Richards are political activists, simply google "Back Country Hunters and Anglers Green"  About half of the first page are articles similar to the sentiments stated here.  Or just go to the BHA page and read their purpose http://www.backcountryhunters.org/index.php/our-work-our-values/our-purpose-and-objectives.  If you don't think Richards personifies this, go ahead and read through his and AK-BHA comments to the board of game over the last decade, they are public on ADF&G website.  Most are anti-predator control and anti motorized access.  Those have been his issues.  He is no friend of the average Alaskan Hunter.
