Meh, I hate NYC because of the filthy, filthy air.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I just want to be nearby when some gang banger tries to 'bust a cap in another gang banger's ass' with that monster of a firearm that he stole and got a few rounds of ammo for. Holding it sideways with one hand (that is, if you can keep the barrel up long enough to pull the trigger) is a good way to get a broken wrist...

As to the earlier discussion about cities and the like...

I personally agree with Shep that I should be able to do whatever the heck I want on my land, within reasonable measures, and so long as it doesn't have a detrimental effect to surrounding areas (No clear cutting the 50 acres of old growth forest you just inherited or dumping 55 gallon drums of motor oil). Heck, why would I give a crapola if my next door neighbor buried his pet in his back yard...

LOL It'd probably snap back into his face and knock him unconscious as well. :twisted:

Doesn't all the high-tech gear take the sport out of hunting? I mean, if the animal has no chance, how is it still hunting rather than just slaughter?

*thwacks Drewcifer*

Animals are tough tough fuckers to chase in the dark...If you cough in the
middle of the night, you can bet your ass the deer will hear it and run like
fuck...especially just after hunting season...

hehe sounds fair to me :)

In all seriousness though, as long as people eat what they kill, it's fine by me. Just seems like the hunt should be fair for both parties, none of this night goggle stuff. Like bringing a gun to a knife fight.

It worries me a little bit.

If it's legal to hunt furbearers, expect to see some PETA activist with shotguns on the streets. Everyone who is wearing a fur coat will be declared as a furbearer and will be shot after sunset. :roll: :lol:
