Butcher45, I never new of either of these guys until you posted the piece. I read a their articles, I never got that they were anti hunters at all,
I said that the guy was anti-NRA, and he is. Did you not read his article on the NRA?
You need to read the Oregon Cougar article again, too. Forget anything you read in it about the cougars themselves, and see what light the author puts on varmint/predator hunters. You missed it the first time if you don't think they sound anti- varmint/predator hunter.
George Wuerthner's article was about Oregon's legislature, opening the door so the state can shoot 1/3 of the lions in the state. Butcher45 would you like to see the state manage game animals this way?
You missed the whole point. Again.
No I wouldn't. I also wouldn't have helped cause their over-population by banning hunting them with hounds, either. I have a cougar story for you later if you want to know why I think they are over-populated, at least in the area I lived.
However, hunting cougars was not the point of my posting those links. I posted it because if you read the article (all the articles) you find out where they stand on other things.
In the Oregon Cougar article he insinuates that every member of this board is a "cretin" along with guys that hunt with hounds in this quote from that article.
"Most people are outraged by the thought of some cretin, whom I will not glorify with the term hunter, following a pack of radio collared hounds to a treed cat, and then blasting the cougar from its perch. The killing of animals like cougars, wolves, prairie dogs, and other animals that are not providing meat on the table is seen as bloodthirty and unnecessary by a growing majority of Americans"
So it seems your comprehension to these articles is poor. I'll ask you what this had to do with the fact that game farms suck. I don't have to like them and won't. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smiliesmack.gif
It wasn't ever about game farms to begin with, and certainly not about telling you what to like. It's page ten, 4100fps, and you still haven't noticed that. Everyone else understood and identified with the post until you started in on game farms, which was a small part of a much larger story. It was even explained to you by another member of this forum how and why you missed the point right after your initial post. It is you that is having comprehension problems 4100fps.
Then Nonya appeared out of nowhere with more of his old gibberish from months ago (another guy that just doesn't get it), claiming that I am a "big supporter of canned hunts with airguns", when in fact I have been on exactly one fenced hog hunt in which I didn't even bring home a hog. Some canned hunt, huh?
I am a supporter of hunting with airguns, and %95 of my hunting is on public Oregon land. Most all of my hunting efforts this winter will be focussed on taking a coyote here in Oregon with my .45 airgun. I am hoping to develope a fur-friendly load by then.
Nonya blindly hates the idea of using airguns for hunting bigger game as much as he hates fenced hunts, and in this blindness he confuses the two and out comes the jibberish.
My post isn't about game farms it is about hunters standing together against the HSUS and PETA. I posted those articles to show info included in those articles on where the authors stand on different issues.
If you really read those articles you SHOULD see that those guys aren't with us. I was curious if they were in your crowd.
