You've officially entered the troll zone....for me.

Excellent....because I have been leaning that way for months.

You have mental problems, get help. No one cares what you think. And no one has elected you to represent them. Take your little personal attacks and stick them.

Before I moved from SoCal....in '98...I saw a cougar along the 91 Frwy...from RVSD to O.C. I kid you not....Right along the frwy...

They mauled and killed a few people while I lived there.

Mountain lions are not endangered in CA. And in some states, it is not just sport to take them. They will take your dogs, your cattle, your sheep.....your kid.

But I will take them for sport myself, if given the chance. Just as I hunt bobcat here in OK.

I've some disgust by what happened before me too....but it doesn't mean I turn a blind eye to what is going on now.

FRegards,

ROTFLOL!!!!

Thanks for the response.

I quite often go with my gutt, and more often than not, it’s okay. It isn’t always.

Here it was probably unfair for me to take this guy to task. If he did have permits and did it legally, it’s more like a Leftist frame of mind to take him to task.

I’ve become somewhat jaded by all the enviro nonsense so much so that I don’t really have a lot of respect for folks who are in any way related to fish, game, land management et al.

I don’t actually have a problem with taking that cat. If it’s legally taken, it isn’t just tossed out, I don’t have a real problem with it.

If the guy didn’t have permits, I’m reinstating my objection to him.

[Osage Orange]

I've seen and read you here for many years now...

We are much the same.

No worries....

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks for the nice response. I don’t like other decent folks thinking I’m a numb-skull more often than they need to, so I appreciate it. :^)

[Osage Orange]

Oh heck, my friend.....I've been a numb-skull more times than I can count.

It's always been a pleasure to read your posts....Even when I get a bit side-ways with them. Ha!!

Best FRegards,

[DoughtyOne]

Thanks Osage Orange. I find myself trying to cut down on the whole getting sideways thing.

I’ve enjoyed talking with you.

[Osage Orange]

Please yak at me anytime....

[DoughtyOne]

Oh I probably will you poor thing. LOL

Take care...

[Osage Orange]

Snort...!!

Poor, I am not.....

[Grizzled Bear]

Sure, he was in a different state when he killed one ~ and ate it ~ and it was all legal ~ but what is he doing protecting the darned things back in CA? Certainly they are as dangerous there as they are in Idaho

Many of his fellow Californians would consider it a sacrilege to kill a big cat and would count it an honor to be eaten by one. You can't fix stupid...

Hello... hello...

Dang it, I hate when that happens.

I wonder if it was Osage Orange taking me to task for the inclusion of ‘poor’ in my response...

[Osage Orange]

Ha!!

[DoughtyOne]

I find triple posting to be a great cure for boredom.

[Grizzled Bear]

Probably none...for game that is illegal in CA.

I've read that the State of California has hired professionals to shoot nuisance cats. Considering their economy, they would have been better off raffling an opportunity to buy a tag. Then they could charge some poor schmuck twice for a chance to shoot one.

[Osage Orange]

Agreed.....
