Around 1900 we were slaughtering off all wildlife we could get in our gunsights, driving many species to the brink of extinction.

And now, thanks to the 40x increase, they're bringing our forests to the brink of extinction. The deer may be cute, but they're destroying the environment.

Interesting way you phrased that. Do they deliberately jump in front of cars so they can kill someone? Or do they actually hunt down people in the woods to kill them?

Wow, you really don't know much about deer. Take a look at the pictures posted to you, I think you'll figure it out.

Laws should be changed. 55 mph is insane in deer country. The speed limits should be no more than 40, unless people don't care about their lives and property. When I'm out and about at night I hate it when the person I am with is going 50-55 in deer country. People are so addicted to and think that driving at high speeds is sane when deer are all over. Even going 55 tons of traffic passes us.

People are so stupid as to think that they can stop quick enough going over 55 when a deer jumps out. People are so brain washed into thinking that they can go really fast, but because it is somewhere around a speed limit that means that they are safe. They don't know how to think for themselves about what speed is in reality actually safe. Trucks are the worst. The drivers often think that they are indestructible.

It's amazing how people are so concerned with their health when it comes to exercising, eating right, and not smoking but think nothing about the risks that our high speed limits are, killing hundreds all the time. Life is considered cheaper than getting somewhere fast.
