Outdoor Recreation - November 2006

I read these boards and see you say how it is terrible to kill deer and other animals and how hunters should die for what they do.

If left unchecked, the deer will overpopulate areas, causing injury to humans, starvation amongst the deer population, spread diseases, and destroy farm crops. Hunting keeps the population in balance and provides uncontaminated food to many.

Look what corporate farming has done to the “normal” food supply in America. Is it more inhumane to shoot a free range deer that has a chance to evade a hunter or to raise a cow in a small pen shared with other cows, standing in its own filth, eating grains filled with hormones and antibiotics?

Hunting provides people with food and recreation. The money spent by hunters provides a boost to the economy. Licensing provides an income stream to state governments. Hunters spend money on land and habitat improvements to make areas better for wildlife to live.

What is wrong with the hunting concept?

When you clean wild game one can not always get all of the shot out and I know that it would be very easy for one to digest some of if without knowing. Do you belive that the body would be able to get rid of it or would it build up? And if so would there be any reprecusions from it?

I was wondering if anybody in Colorado had got an Elk this Rifle season. I got my very first elk on my very first rifle hunt!!! My Grandpa had shot a bull and about 30 seconds later as he was heading to his elk he seen a bear and killed it!!!! Then about 2min. after he shot his kill, my Dad and I shot the cow and calf(i got the calf) that had been with the bull. So we filled 4 tags by 8:30 opening morning!! The Next day my uncle shot a calf. We were so blessed! The day after we got home we butchered the elk and bear. Lets just say that we have a TON of meat now. I wold like to hear all of every body elses stories. We were hunting in Pagosa Springs.

The gun fires one round every minute. On testing the new gun, 12 rounds are fired in 12 minutes. Nobody is interested in buying the gun! Why?

Are these two terms interchangable?

It seems as if many people, for some reason, refer to the AK-47 as an 'assault rifle'- but it is also a machine gun (when on fully automatic).

Do assault rifle and machine gun have the same meaning?
