There are no words to accurately describe this video
A Long Island, New York, man and his young son were caught on video harassing a deer hunter who was minding his own business in the woods and looking for deer.
Ditch the fake news ==> Click here to get news you can trust sent right to your inbox. It's free! What are the details? Dominick Lobifaro, a 30-year-old hunter from Brooklyn, New York, caught the incident on camera.
While Lobifaro was seeking for a place to hunt, he was approached by a man and his son as well as a throng of neighborhood youngsters.
"Hey!" the unnamed man can be heard shouting to get the attention of Lobifaro, who was sitting in his truck at the time. "The kids wanna know — why you wanna kill deer?"
The man's son follows closely behind and adds, "What did the f***ing deer do to you?"
Clearly taken aback, Lobifaro calmly explains that he hunts deer because he eats them, and points out that there's hardly a difference between hunting and buying meat at the supermarket.
"Do you buy meat from the supermarket?" he asks. The young boy answers that he does, but refuses to listen to reason.
The boy's father, apparently uninterested in explaining that some people hunt animals for food, continues berating and badgering Lobifaro, mockingly calling him a "hero." He also goes on to blame the kids' tears on Lobifaro "because you wanna kill a deer."
"I'm sorry that they're crying," Lobifaro responds, and suggests that the father tell the kids that hunting for food is a "part of life."
"I'm not trying to do anything bad," he adds, but the child becomes further enraged, insisting that the hunter is doing wrong simply by "using a weapon to kill a live animal."
"Leave!" the boy shouts. "Now! You're an a**hole! F*** you!"
According to the New York Post, Lobifaro ended up calling authorities on the man who confronted him and continued to harass him. Authorities reportedly told the unnamed man that Lobifaro had every right to be where he was and that he was doing nothing wrong.

“”Leave! Now! You’re an a**hole! F*** you!””

How old is that boy? He looks to old to cry. Maybe there’s too much estrogen in his diet, or maybe is father is gay.
They hang out in the trees and scream at one another as mating behavior, unless your convenient cop neighbor shoots them.
They nest in the woodpile next to your back door and threaten you with giant teeth if you try to sit on your stoop. (Personal experience.)
If you put pet food out, they congregate on your doorstep on your doorstep and fight over the food. (Personal observation.)
They stink. (Literally)
A “hate” crime.
Democrats are juvenile delinquents.
so they are the perfect leftist environmental correct solution to a wholly leftist disaster Lymes.
Lymes could have been knocked out early with DDT and judicious deer killing
The only hunting I can accept is hunting for food and clothing.
Sport hunting I draw the line at because we should not take the life of another creature for fun or to appease our human vanity.
What the hunter did was perfectly legitimate and human beings have always provided for their own needs.
We have the right to take from nature as long as we also protect life on the planet.
I suppose it’s a question of tradeoffs. I don’t see how the ‘possums would get all the ticks off the deer, though.
Peacocks eat ticks.
Lyme Disease is dreadful. I’ve known a couple of people with chronic cases, and one lady in my church died.
Thank you.
Because venison tastes good.
Looks like NY needs a ‘Hunter harassment’ law, in MI the cops/DNR would have took that A-hole to jail with a big fine to pay.
The proper response is, "none of your goddam business!"
Fruit trees? Opussums don’t really climb trees around here, unless something is after them.
Deer in my neighborhood eat my plants, which I paid for. They jump over my fence.
Humans have the right to hunt, as they have done as long as there have been humans.
Raising animals to eventually kill and eat them is also normal and natural.
To those who don’t want to eat animals, go right ahead, but stop bothering people who are acting according to human nature.
No, oaks and mesquite and stuff.
“The only hunting I can accept is hunting for food and clothing.

Please the explain the difference between “sport hunting” and “Hunting for food”?
There is none that I know of?
the deranged kid threatens the hunter with a hockey stick, and threatens the hunter’s pet
We are so lousy with deer in GA they walk around the subdivisions like dogs.
Could be both.
