[QUOTE][QUOTENAME]Janet wrote: [/QUOTENAME]The birds Cheney was "hunting" didn't have a chance in hell. Reportedly he shot over 70 pheasants that day, and some mallard ducks as well. It was at an exclusive hunting club where the birds are all pen-reared and then released to be shot by the patrons of this club. What is the challenge of shooting an animal reared in captivity with no way to escape? This club released over 500 pen-reared pheasants for the benefit of Cheney's hunting party. The group killed over 417 birds. That isn't sport, or a challenge. That is just killing for the sake of killing.

Does this mean that when hunters get tired of birds they can start in on the lawyers?

I don't think I've ever started a topic that got so many replies.
So at least something good came out of Cheney's trigger-happy finger.

"the hunter then gets out of his car, aims his shotgun at slow moving birds 3 feet away....and then the hunt is ON..."
this is all too funny.

Ultra-conservative extremists unfortunately disagree. The rest of us are optimistic, though.

While I respect your opinion, which is often wise and thoughtful, I must disagree and say that many of you are anything but optimistic.

What I'm saying is, if people hate gay people and want them dead, there's no way you can stop them from going out and attacking gay individuals. Hate crime laws, etc., only work AFTER THE CRIME HAS ALREADY BEEN COMMITTED. That's not helping the victim anyway. Therefore, the only way to stop these crimes from happening is to teach prospective victims not to be victims - to be able to defend themselves using, for example, firearms.
People just aren't safe any more. I mean, I live in a town where just recently THIS happened. -> http://www.nbc10.com/news/7127906/detail.html

This post and the one I quoted aren't even remotely synonymous.
And again, no, violence is not the only method of crime prevention. Maybe if you took your "Bush Blinders" off, you could entertain some other possibilities. Now, you can choose to attack me personally, or you can objectively entertain these statements as possibly being true.

I'm not saying violence is the only way. What I'm saying is that in cases of people who are physically unable to defend themselves against larger and stronger persons, firearms work as a good equalizer.

- so are you suggesting we have a system where people who are old and/or disabled can apply for a firearm to protect themselves against attackers?
