Where in hell did you get that idea? Why don't you do a search for my user name over the last week in this forum (long range) and you can read exactly what I've said about the guy on this thread. It'll take two minutes. If you see anything that indicates to you that I'm "perfectly OK" with it, let me know.

Well, you didn't express it as "your opinion" when you said it. You said he should have his license revoked because it was a "clear case of "game harassment" or "willful waste."

That's not an opinion of what's right or wrong, it goes farther than that when you cite a law and say he should be penalized under that law.

Here's your exact quote:

I see this no different than a trophy poacher dropping a deer, snagging the antlers and leaving the meat to rot.
