Coyotes are pests not native to much of the U.S. As such they are not protected by seasonal limits. Oh, THOSE coyotes! Hmmm.

The Remington .22-.250 is an ideal cartridge for hunting Coyotes.

Being a person of limited means, I like to use my deer and elk rifle, a customized Pearce Rifle Company Sako Hunter chambered in .270 Winchester.

Of course these are the same people who pray at Saint Malverde's shrine. And Pancho Villa is another "hero".

A lot of these coming through the desert are smuggling drugs and the coyote is the drug ring leader who commands much respect from his followers ---- respect or death are the two choices.

There are good coyotes and bad coyotes
I'm filing that in the BS file, right next to
immigrants are not criminals, just honest, hard-working people who want a better life for their families.

I'll come a'shootin with you! Criminal coyotes (not the animal kind) would be good target practice.

Their popular music sings the praise of violent drug lords and the murder of law enforcement agents ---- why would you expect them not to admire the smugglers?
