I agree with flags and Oldtimr, but actually it looks like the OP was just a Spammer or Troll since he hasn't even logged back onto the site to see if he got a rise out of anybody since he made that post or maybe he is just relying on emails back to him!

Maybe or maybe not but I won't blame him if he doesn't return if he was really looking for some help ?maybe when people don't hunt they don't know how hunters speak if you know what I mean ? I don't know if he was a dirt bag or not but I hope he was if we treat people like that !

I don't think so. All we have to go by is the words that were posted and the tone of the post. To me it shows no respect and complete disregard for the act of hunting and a flippant almost giddy attitude about killing wildlife. I have helped a lot of people start hunting, still do, but never one who exhibited the thought process put forth in the post. That is me, you are free mentor whoever you want. If I am alone in my opinion, I can live with it.
In the meantime, for the OP, you will need to take and pass a Hunter Safety class in California before you can obtain a hunting license. Here's a link (see below) with more information about that:

I would have to say that if I were the OP, I would not be coming back on here after the "welcome" you guys gave him. Hey the guy has never hunted. He doesn't know the Jargon. So he said something that you didn't particularly like the way he said it. Glad you guys have never done that! Do you remember how you were as a kid? Didn't you just want to kill something. The genetic drive is there, and maybe we expect a grown up to say it better, but give him a break.
Assuming that he is for real, and he would have had to make up a lot of stuff if he is not, then he actually sounds like a pretty cool guy. I just emailed him to see if I can get some more info.
That said, not a sailor, but I would have to agree with Flags assessment as well.
