Sometimes I get the urge to go out shooting things for sport. You know, recreational shooting, like hunters do, except instead of shooting quail or coyotes or pronghorn or prairie dogs, the targets would be quail or coyote or pronghorn or prairie dog hunters.
There’s probably nothing more relaxing than pecking off quail hunters as they take flight, lying in wait or setting out traps for wolf or coyote hunters, or blasting at prairie dog or pronghorn hunters from a distance of 200 yards or more. Shooting can sure be soothing and killing is the ultimate sport.
Sound like crazy talk? Maybe, but the thing is, while I’m just being facetious about taking lives in the name of a hobby, sport hunters are dead serious.

Even though you’re being facetious, it was sure fun to read, anyway!
If you shot someone hunting on your land, what would he fallout be?
Are you kidding–hunters are considered humans (believe it or not).
Depends. If your state has a “stand your ground” law and you could plausibly maintain that you felt physically threatened, you might get a pass. Or, the bullet that you “intended” for some deer just accidentally went through the trespassers head instead.
Just make sure you have a license, deer tag and orange hunting vest, so you won’t have broken any laws they deem important…
I prefer acorns and a wrist rocket for keeping the neighbor’s dogs from crapping in my driveway. 🙂 As far as dealing with poachers, I think with all these states crying poverty, maybe they should start conficating everything these poachers own? Geez, they bend over backwards to screw over dying cancer patients who grow some medicinal herb plants. How about leaving the sick and dying to their own choice of treatment, on their own private property and concentrate on tracking down the psychopaths who feel entitled to kill any creature they want, when ever the urge strikes them. No matter if it is in my or your woods and they don’t belong there. They, bottomline have no respect.
I’m not the only one who feels the human race is now beginning to divide into evolving and devolving species. My question is…is it intentional? And why? Got any ideas? When wolves have a more ethical system and more loving family structure than humans who hunt them…and wolves are more intelligent than the grinning redneck latched on to their dying bodies for a photo op, something has to be happening to the human species? Somehow, co-exist doesn’t fit that scenerio for the longterm any more than it did for the Neanderthals.
Sometimes I feel like a trap animal my self there are so many things going on in so many directions I have sign so many petitions that I’m getting confused and sign them again , everyplace needs money the Humane Society of the United States is begging for money because the seal pups killing started today all for fur .Sociopath’s are shooting and killing dolphins.When you are a caring person these parasites make you want to stop this disease unlike going into lab working long hours to find a cure , this is a hard one to stop and they push you to your very soul and the government the ones we supposedly voted in keeps giving these parasites the freedom to kill animals it makes you want to put them on your bucket list and take as many out with you as you can.I know this is is heart breaking for you but we’re here and we’ll keep fighting right beside you for the animals, you’re all in my thoughts and prayers.
I wish some Alien would land on our planet (like in the movie: The Day the Earth Stood Still) and remove humans from the planet or maybe just the bad humans.
I have replaced a couple of offensive old sayings with new and improved ones. Such as instead of “Kill two birds with one stone”, I say “Kill two hunters with a single shot”. Or instead of “There are multiple ways to skin a cat”, I say “There are multiple ways to skin a trapper”. I certainly would not do either, but saying them sure does make me feel better.
Anyone else have any good sayings?
Love it! I don’t have any sayings, just a couple suggestions:
I’d like animal abusers to have done to them what they’ve done to animals and I’d like animals to be armed with weapons proportional to their size (I’m thinking of the big ones). That’s why I don’t necessarily oppose bullhooks in the circus. I just want elephants to be equipped with their own ele-sized bullhooks. That should take care of that dispute. Of course the eles would probably be too kind to use them.
How about one that resonates specifically with Jim’s post: “Extremism in the defense of the defenseless is no vice; and moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue” (apologies to Syracuse). And I’m not being facetious or fantasizing here, I’m in deadly earnest.
You have exactly the same thoughts as I do. Whether it would be from 200 yards or at point blank however, it would be very satisfying to take these sob’s out and make the world a better place. Opposite to an innocent animal harming nobody and minding its own business, these sadist cowards deserve it, omg, how they deserve it. These crimes against wildlife have none whatsoever to do with sports, just with the pathetic abuse of power, the ultimate bullying, with being incredibly cruel and loving it. THEY need to be exterminated!
This is where my praise for things like COD: Black Ops and GTAIV where all your fustrations and be saftely and sanely unleashed on others. It’s an appropriate coping mechanism for those of us with darker ideas on what to do to the armies of the anti-wolf fringe. c
It’s refreshing to hear intelligent comments from like minded folks because sometimes I feel like I am the only one who gets it. Thanks!
You’re not alone Kate.
Jim Have you seen this little sweet posting? Maybe a dinner date with this canned Hunter… for some hunting tips… Bring Lots of Butter for Noodles to go with those tips…muhahahahah!

I wonder everyday when something is going to pop. Seems the world has gone mad. Down here on my block I am the only vegan standing and it is discouraging when the whole world is filled with blood thirsty heathens. I don’t stand a chance even in my neighborhood. We haven’t progressed at all. Something has got to come and get us. Thin us down at least-mail us home flat So I take a little cheer when I read of others who are sick of the human race as much as I am..
It may already be happening, but just not in obvious ways. Hunters are more likely to be abusive to their wives and children. There is a program on the Oxygen network called “Snapped”. It is “true” stories of people who lose it. The typical storyline goes something like this. A man abuses his wife and/or has a mistress. The woman snaps and kills him. Quite frequently the man is a hunter. Sometimes they explicitly say so and other times you can tell because they show a picture of the guy and he is wearing camouflage and holding up his kill or the picture shows him in the house with all kinds of dead animals on the wall. So some may already be getting their just rewards.
Interesting. My father was a hunter and he was abusive. I think people who can slaughter life in the woods can be violent at home. My father dropped dead one day so nature got him and we did not need to finish him off. Heh heh. He had four children and none of us are hunters. I am the only vegan however.
Denderah,
Studies have shown that people who like to exercise dominion over the life and death of animals also like to exercise dominion over women and children. Let your vegan lifestyle keep you strong and kind and bring you peace.
Facetious???? Damn! I was going to ask where I can get a license!
