The wicked are not defined by who was in the deer blind. Obviously that man was wicked, but maybe the others were also... So when I read or hear of events like these, I immediately think of these Scriptures~it certainly sounds to me like they were "cursed in the field" since they died there and so I think they maybe were the ones whom disobeyed God.

How you can take such an attitude toward a family or a group of friends that was out enjoying the outdoors on their own private property, and was wiped out by a trespassing poacher, is utterly beyond me. I'm having trouble moderating my rhetoric here, so I'll take a deep breath first.

Okay, saying it nicely: Aside from being a rabid antihunter, a Pharisee, or a white-hater, I can't imagine any other reason for you to take such an attitude. If none of these are true, then please explain to us, what is your problem?

re: Hunting -- If you think that the victims had it coming because God has something against hunting, you're biblically wrong -- hunting was specifically provided for in the kosher laws (Leviticus 17:13)

Regarding your apparent Pharasaic assumption that people are wicked because disaster occurs and kills them -- discuss that first with the souls of 45 million unborn babies, then with Todd Beamer's widow. Then read:

Luke 13:1-5 There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Finally... it's possible that you are one of those blind anti-white racists (perhaps a self-hating white?) who assumes that the property owners were white (probably true in Wisc.), and that therefore the confrontation with the trespassing Hmong poacher somehow *must* have been the whites' fault, because *all* nonwhites are innocent little angels who never do anything wrong and therefore *all* interracial conflicts are the fault of whitey. If you believe this, then, come to Los Angeles...
