You crazy hunters......

I don't recall anyone asking for your opinion Joe. :p

Joe is right, let's not make this a flame war. Here is my final comment on the subject - This is a sad, sad event and I feel sorry for everyone involved. Clearly there is something wrong with the guy who did it, but none the less he should be locked up for the rest of his life.
 
Seeing that the posts prior to yours were all "blaming the whacko" type, serious in nature type posts, I don't believe it would be unreasonable to "read into" your post, and think maybe you were going in an opposite direction.

Statements like these, "...start trouble...." and "..imagine what comments I'd like to make..." should be construed as what? A joke?! If so, I missed it because I don't know you or your sense of humor. And, I don't find humor in this article!

No, I'm not the ignorant one. I read your post and responded. If it were intentionally vague and potentially controversial, you accomplished your goal.

Lastly, I was inquiring as to your take on this matter. It is my opinion if a mans take is "the guns are the problem" or "we need more gun laws to stop stuff like this", then that man is ignorant. The laws are too numerous to mention and guns, by themselves, do not kill. People employ guns to kill.

PS: Not riled up at all. Just amazed!

PPS: Not flaming, just explaing my post!
 
I don't buy it. If you were simply asking for my opinion I think you could have found a better way than with your flaming response. Either way, I've already stated my opinion in my last reply so I have no more to say.
 
I'm not sellin' it! I'm explaining where my first response came from. If it's perceived as a flame, I can't help it. Similarly, you can't change the perception of your first post, eh?! ???

Hey Joe just don't be strayin in front of any loosey goosey hunters out there buddy. I don't think anyone will ever mistake you for an elk but well lets just say keep you head down.

I know alot of you guys enjoy hunting and well all I can say is please be safe out there. As you know I'm your typical city raised kid and don't really understand the sport but surely understand the comradery (sp). If for some reason someone starts shooting at you for any reason do me one favor ..............

Take off the F@#@#G Orange outfits and make yourselves a little harder to hit!

Enjoy the season everyone and Happy Hunting to all of you!

Stearing back towards the original post...

One thing I don't understand. How did nobody shoot back? The article mentions that the whole party only had one gun with them. I'm not a hunter but I have to assume its very odd that eight people would be out deer hunting with only one rifle between them..?

I've been wondering about that myself other. The person was probably in shock or thought it was illegal...who knows? Very good question though.
 
While reading the article, I had the same thought. If I'm goin' in the woods during gun season, I'm goin' in with a weapon. It'll be interesting to see what all of the facts are IF they are ever released.

Bad situation all the way around!

I just clicked on the article again and it has been updated since earlier. A few more details in it.

Doesn't sound too good for the old boy!

I spoke with a buddy of mine who is a hunter and he is just baffled that the party that suppossedly came to rescue this guy came with no guns and had all their protective colors on making them easy targets for this nutcase.

Unbelievable! I hope they throw the book at this dude!

Any law abiding person wouldn't be thinking in terms of arming themselves to actually have to shoot a person. I could only imagine the chaos of the radio messages and no one fully understanding what was happening before it was too late. Good people just do not think like that. Prayers to the families that have been touched with this.

Other1, your original smartass remark was taken by most for what it was. You can be as cute as you care to be about people jumping to conclusion..... it was taken exactly as you intended it to be taken. I doubt you'll find very many people who read it any different.

BTW, since you went back and edited your reply to my first post, and you want to play with intended meaning, I never offered to give you a napkin. No sense telling me to keep it. :)
 
Apparently the Hmong don't believe in the idea of private land and this is not the first time a Hmong has been found trespassing while "hunting" on private property.

I'm surprised no one has blamed it on the damn immigrant yet.

Allofus hit the nail on the head. As Geraldo said, reporters only report the burning buildings. this incident pales in comparison to the millions of successful, at at least non-lethal-to-humans, hunts that occur in the US yearly.
 
What gets me is the fact that this guy had to be helped out of the woods by two other (unsuspecting) hunters because he had no compass and was lost. That tells me he is definitely no hunter.

Also, when he was caught, he was out of ammo. Can you imagine the toll if he had had more rounds?

Throw the noose at him!

Uhhhhhhh...........

Just my opinion but I think ya kinda crossed the line by calling Kenny a "jackass"

It's one thing if it's said in fun but it didn't appear you meant it as playful ribbing.
 
Well CC, unlike most of the people on this board I think you are entitled to your opinion, if you think I went over the line so be it. I have been called both ignorant and a liar in this thread when I essentially posted nothing but a short sarcastic comment that basically said NOTHING. I'm sick and tired of the $hit people give everyone on this board and I'm gonna call it like I see it.

*NOTE* Edited to correct a grammatical mistake only.

I know that I should probably stay as far away from this as I can get, but this is like watching Artest versus the Pistons fans all over again... uh... I meant that in a playful, ribbing way.

Let's all light up a cigar and exhale the bad vibes, eh? Everyone is entitled to their own opinion -- even if it does not match your own.

Don't sweat it CC.... his mouth speaks volumes. ;)

Just so there's no mistake about it:
I wasn't responding to your comments so keep the napkin for yourself.

This was the post you edited. It originally said "I wasn't responding to your comments". Now while you "may" have corrected, as you say, a spelling mistake you also edited the ending to include "so keep the napkin for yourself".

I read your original post right after you made it so if you want to refute that you didn't add that last part then yes, I am calling you a liar, or untruthful, or a fibber, or two-faced, or insincere, or double-dealing, or mendacious, or deceptive. or disingenous, or..... well, you get the picture. :) Other than that.... its all good.

Another shining example of why there should NOT be an edit button. ???
 
I honestly don't remember that I added that, but if you look I posted at 8:13 and edited at 8:13, so I immediately changed what I wrote, not like I went back later and tried to change the facts as you imply. You must have been watching the discussion like a hawk to catch it before I edited.

Anyway, what difference does this make? Move on.. I'm sure we all have better things to worry about.
