Ethics, unlike laws, are specific to each individual. Every hunter must develop his own set of rules for honorable behavior while afield. However, like honor, a basic code of conduct exists. The following tenets should be followed at all times:
Follow Fair Chase principles, giving the animal a reasonable opportunity to escape.The contest is between its survival instincts and your skill and cunning. Too many technological advantages reduces it to mere killing, not hunting. Do not take advantage of an animal in distress.
Make a clean kill. Avoid shooting at running animals, through obstacles, or from great distances. Only take shots you’re certain you can make. Avoid wounding an animal at all costs.
Develop your skills. Attain and maintain hunting abilities that allow you to make better choices and cleaner kills. Shoot your weapon often, and from the positions in which you’ll find yourself while afield.
Know your limits. And do not exceed them. This goes for your equipment, too. If an animal is too large or too far from the vehicle for you to pack it out without spoilage, don’t take the shot.
Be safe. Know your backdrop and practice proper weapon-handling. Do not endanger yourself or others.
Show respect. For the animal. Like you, wildlife are living creatures just trying to make a go of it in this world. Give them the respect they deserve. Do not waste harvested game.
For others. Close gates behind you, be courteous to other hunters, and be considerate of non-hunters.
For Montana. Know and honor local and regional customs.
For the environment. Regard the landscape as holy ground and treat it as such. Do not litter or drive over fragile vegetation. Support conservation efforts.
For the future. Behave in a way that reflects well upon hunting and hunters, helping to ensure that future generations will enjoy the same privileges we do today.

The controlling word of this entire letter of "guidance gibberish" is a single word, the word tenuous. Tenuous describes an argument, claim, connection, or evidence that is extremely weak, flimsy, speculative, and lacking a sound or substantial basis. That's not a word anyone should be betting anything on, especially ones freedom and livelihood. Clearly we all have seen, evidence, warrants, and guidance be damned, if they want to arrest someone they just do it and qualified immunity protects the racket, especially here where we are all riding the rails of the kangaroo express of the 9th circus... There is no penalty or even a slight inconvenience for subjecting anyone in Montana to process for any of this. Given the political degradation of default to state power rather than the authority of the citizens, there obviously never will be. Knowing that the process is the punishment, you can certainly look forward to arrests in Montana. Once again accountability is completely absent on the official side. Monetary punishments and fines are always the burden of the taxpayers not the official. Just a fair warning of opinion.
No, it's just the final stages of the reset. The rise of AI and robotics have sealed our fate. The entirety of the tech class and heads of the surveillance technology industry have clearly told us in multiple interviews that within in a 10 year period, which we are already 4 years into, that your savings and money and possesions will no longer matter. They do not mean this in a good way. They no longer need a CBDC. Trump is working on an executive order right now to require biometrics to have any access to banking period. Once in place they will have direct control over your every move. One step out of bounds and the treatment the Canadian truckers got will be your future. They no longer need to extract wealth from the west, there's none of any consequence left. What miniscule crumbs that are left are being gobbled up by private equity. Private equity seeks only to extract the equity from everything they touch and make it the private possesion of the owners. The equity funds are subject to faux economic manipulation as the facade of a public market demands, but the actual owners never see a loss because taking from these people cannot be accomplished by mere lawfare. One day they will leave the hollowed out shell to collapse and even then they will still somehow be able to profit from this collapse. Services will degrade in quality and soar in costs the quickest. Ownership of things like cars, appliances, machinery, and finally hobby centric items will become increasingly enshitified and burdensome. It's a stratigized scheme to convince westerners to demand the demise of their own industries. You will demand that cars and appliances and machinery are better made but they will ignore the will of the people because they no longer care about your worthless money. This was already becoming clear when they started referring to us as consumers instead of customers and associates instead of employees. Oh yes, you will boycott...vote with your wallet..so on and so forth. And in turn, these companies will suffer and lose profit, in turn causing layoffs and firings, in turn causing an inability to continue to conduct business at scale, in turn causing a loss to private equity shareholders, in turn causing forced bankruptcy, in turn causing you to have finally no where to buy anything , in turn causing self fulfillment of their plan. It's codified into law already. There will be no re-industrialization of the west. Offshore infrastructure is never coming back, it's not possible. All industry except militarized complexes and surveillance endeavors will collapse. Education and healthcare are already major contributions to the surveillance apparatus so I include this in the MI Complex as well. What they have been telling us for years is now is finally completely possible. They need only a small fraction of the current population to serve them and since westerners are not conducive to this plan they are replacingthem with a servant class that, having been born into shit and having only ever seen suppression and strife, are already accepting of the squalor they will create out of the ashes of western civilization.
