    They say a beautiful deer on the internet and their first thought was to kill it? Why not shoot it with a camera? Are redstaters really this sadistic? Its one thing to actually go out into the woods, hunt, and eat what you kill (not that I as a vegetarian would do that) but to sit on your ass clicking on real animals in a canned hunt where the deer doesn't even stand a chance is another. Theres no sport in this.
    I'm not going even get into the legal issue of what happens if an annonymus user sees a human in their sites.

    So what do you guys think?

    It's not just about 'redstaters' it's about power. This wackjob is looking for a way to capitalize. Ever seen those hunting video games? Crazy. There's some real nutjobs. I've always wanted to drop em off in the middle of somewhere like southern Idaho with a butterknife and a loincloth since they are so 'outdoorsy'.

    I was raised in a family where all the men hunted, fished, etc. I have never understood the sport-hunting mentality. At least my folks always ate what they killed and they didn't keep trophies. But I was still never very happy about it.

    But on the other hand... I'm sure the deer they killed had better lives than feed cows do. And at least they weren't tortured-they were put to death quickly.

    I dunno...

    I am not against deer hunting, but this is absurd. It is a very bad idea.

    ....Whackjobs....

    We've had a few hunting threads recently and I do kill one moose a year for food, but this is sick.

    Hell, drop them off around here. I'll even give them a bow and a pair of Carhartts.

    Lol, I saw this on the news last night and I thought to myself, "this would make a great thread for hipforums" I agree, it is completely absurd. I love this line too:
    I mean, come on. They see a beautiful deer, and they think, "hey, we should kill that!" What a sick demented fuck.

    Things like this make me ask "how far can humans go in the needless torture of animals?" This is disgusting and represents a new low. What about the crazy fuck that takes out the animal's legs and just keeps wounding it over and over and watching it die for hours on this website? I see nothing to prevent that and because its over the internet it is much like a video game and people can use it like that. Some people have no respect for animals at all.
