"Murdock and Shuttlesworth protect the infinite right to express ideas. They do not protect the right to harvest finite physical resources."
"The government cannot run out of free speech, but a state can easily run out of deer and fish."
"Wildlife does not belong to you until it is legally harvested; until then, the state holds it in a public trust for everyone. Because the public owns the resource, the state has a constitutional duty to regulate it so it isn't wiped out by over-harvesting."
"Shuttlesworth struck down permits that could be arbitrarily denied by officials to silence people. Anyone who pays the fee and follows safety rules gets a fishing license."
"License fees are not general taxes meant to fund the government. They are specific user fees that go directly back into conserving the animals and maintaining the land."
