The concept was pioneered three years ago by a Texas entrepreneur who set up an operation where would-be hunters could shoot Barbary sheep, wild boar and other animals at a game ranch using a webcam. Texas officials shut down his operation in 2005, when legislators banned Internet hunting. Florida Today image.
Okay, what about Democrats, RINO’s, and independents?
Sure. If you are gonna kill something, it is only fair that you go out into the field to do it... In short, don’t be a wuss...
By all means, don't bother actually weighing the pros and cons of a particular issue before taking a stance. Just consider how you feel at that exact moment and decide that way. Logic and debate have no place in American politics today.
That said, I do happen to agree with John123 in post #4.
Count me in.
I hate most all new laws. But this one makes sense.
You think you'd want to clean one of those things?
Us Independents do shoot back you know
It's really pretty easy because there are no guts to remove.
I’m against this kind of hunting. I don’t like canned huntes either. I don’t hunt out of stands, especially where the game has been chummed to come near the stand.
Call me old fashioned, but hunting means hunting. And BTW, I’ve taken disable people hunting. It can be done.
I was thinking more on the lines of saving humanity and the thrill of it all.
I am, after all a humanitarian.
I can’t imagine why anyone,unless they were totally disabled, would do this. Most of the fun of hunting is the trip, the camp, your camp companions, the wind in your face, sunrise, sunset and seeing animals in their natural environment. I continued to do all these things long after I had stopped pulling the trigger.
Have we lost our collective minds?
You hear about all these hairbrained schemes that get done in the dark of night? Honestly I had never heard of this before but since X# of states had banned it, it must have been around for awhile.
As bad as schools etal banning the safe gun training courses because they are SPONSORED and PRESENTED by the National Rifle Association...”Eddie Eagle” I think.
Heard that the NFL is threatening to ‘sue’ churches and HOMELESS SHELTERS for having ‘Super Bowl Parties”..granted when it got into the story they mentioned something about 55” screens, but what is next? You will have to sneak around to have a Super Bowl party in your home? Bad enough you can’t play penny ante poker in your home or participate in football pools, or bet on the game,
YET one of the big ‘features’ of a big game are what the respective governors are betting on it?
What am I missing here?
That should have read "undecideds".
Sorry about that ...
now don't go telling me you're an undecided ... 'cause I won't know what to say.
For those who have ever stood a post, there is just something so much more appealing about duty using one of these things instead of standing on a tarmack in Nebraska...
Let people kill animals. I need to eat.
There are going to be a whole lot of conservative voters that are independents in this election, especially if McCain is the nominee.
Does it take guts to blindly vote for the guy with the "R" at the end of his name even though you don't agree with his positions? I think it takes a lot of something else, but not guts.
