The prominence that the story now has on the NY Times'
homepage makes me think it will be the front page not too long from now. The NY Times, who'd a thunk it?

I don't agree with this but I can't believe this on the cover of the Slimes.

I just don't. It's nothing something I'd want my children doing.

They're under adult supervision. What's the problem?

My brothers daughter (11 years old) can shoot your eye out at 250 yards.
She hits stuff I can't even see with this little .22lr rifle I can't even get my finger into.

I would not want my children hunting. That's all. It's creepy.

I don't care for it. Not something I want my children doing, hunting down animals.

Is hunting bear with a 20 gauge advisable?

It is to me. It's not something I'd want my children to do. Other people want to that's fine. I'm not telling other people what to do with their children. It's against my personal principles.

It's nothing something I'd want my children doing.If they don't learn young, they'll almost never get to like it. The animals will overgrow sustainable, healthy populations because there are not enough hunters or predators.

That is one fine hound there.
People get upset about this for some reason; that dog lives for the hunt and you can see he knows he is going to have his day.

I would say that is one lucky kid. I didn't get my BB gun until I was ten. I got my first shotgun at age twelve.
If kids were educated about firearms at an early age there would be fewer accidents, and less opportunities for the gun-grabbers to preach about "gun violence."

To: neverdem
Yes but some people have no interest in having their children hunt animals. It's simply not something my children will do until they become adults and then they can do whatever they want. Someone can shoot it. There'll always be hunters. My children just won't be any.

I shoot, and while I personally have never hunted, it would seem to me like a good skill to have. You never know when you might need it.

Anybody know what kind of dogs they're using?
They look like some kind of Great Dane or Mastiff cross.
[I'm guessing based on the brindle coats and head shape]
