"The weak link of the gene pool"....
We have a saying out west. It goes something like this: 100% of the elk are killed by 10% of the hunters". This, of course, is an annual occurence.
10-15% of the population are hunters. 10-15% are anti hunters. That leaves 70-80% sitting somewhere on the fence.
I'm just curious why someone would patronize that 70-80%? The last time I checked we evolved from a social order primarily based upon HUNTING AND GATHERING. Whereas, the GATHERS accounted for 80 % of the subsistance.
Seems that "80" number has been around for some time.
The way I see it, 80% of the population dictatesWHAT I can and cannot hunt,WHEN I can and cannot hunt,WHERE I can and cannot hunt,HOWI CAN AND CANNOT HUNT, AND LASTLY, WHY
I CAN AND CANNOT HUNT. The last thing I want to do is tell them they're the weak link in the gene pool! If you think this isn't serious, then take a real quick look at the number of countries which allow bowhunting in Europe! There is a time and a place for everything. For goodness sake, exercise a little common sense! We are not on an islandnor do we not rely on survival of the fittest! If you think the people around us do notmerit respect, then go ahead andupset them-ruin it for all of us!
Hunting is like passing gas. It happens and sometimes it's necessary. But it is not something you want to do in someone's face! Especially when that someone has the ability toinsert a plug!
Common sense.....Here's a link:

This is happening in my home county. If Anita Moss and her husband are successful (jury was told they're part of the weak gene pool), can you imagine the precedence this will establish. Hunting across this great nation will be in seriously jeopardy! It will only take one person to "feel" unsafe! All public lands around this person will be closed to hunting forever! You think it serious enough torefrain from callingthem cavemen?
Damn straight, I am a hunter and I want to keep it that way! If I have to dance with a less than perfect (Ugly) girl now and then, then so be it!
