Look, I think it would be great if he improved his typing skills and wrote something positive or worked in a lab helping to cure a disease or to help LIFE.
It would be a wonderful story if this person was heralded for doing something positive. Positive---he did NOT do, IMO.
Applauding this person for shooting a deer is more pathetic than his choice of how to use his mind and his prosthetics.
Go back to the DUmp with the rest of the PETA moonbats, you loser troll.
What's not postive about providing for your own food? Meat doesn't grow on styrofoam trays.
"Applauding this person for shooting a deer is more pathetic than his choice of how to use his mind and his prosthetics."
You're getting so incredibly tiresome. Get off your Mommy's computer and GTFU.
I'll bet you would be really upset with my shooting of a 12 point two years ago and last year I passed on an 8 point so that I could shoot a doe. I didn't want to discriminate based on sex. This year {on Monday} my grandson and I will go out and get another one {he's only 11 so he can't shoot until next year} but he did help me gut the doe last year and is looking forward to another season.
This story is about an individual that overcame physical limitations, not about your perceived morality of hunting.
But, to provide some logic for you to digest...
This year the Wisconsin deer population numbered about 1.5 million. This number exceeded what the land can safely support.
Reduction of the deer herd through hunting is one way to humanely control the population. If left to itself, disease in the herds would be rampant, encroachment on human populated areas would lead to vehicle accidents etc. The population of coyotes and other predators would rise and you would also have them encroaching on the human population.
So, by this individual purchasing a license and gearing up for the hunt, he adds moneys to the local civil infrastructure, and adds moneys to the budget of the DNR which allows them to continue to safetly manage wildlife in Wisconsin.
To give an idea of the moneys involved, last year in Wisconsin, about 500,000 deer were harvested during legal hunting seasons. With a modest estimate of $100 spent per animal, that would be $50,000,000 added to the local economy.
The other option is to raise taxes in Wisconsin to allow the DNR to hire professional hunters that herd the animals into confined areas and mass slaughter them, or for the DNR to poison the animals, leading to painful dealth and waste.
You don't have to be pro-hunter, but hopefully this will allow you to be an informed anti-hunter.
Actually, he's making an effort to expand his horizons despite his almost overwhelming handicap.
Maybe you should consider doing the same.
Oh for Pete's sake, what are you, jealous or something?
This guy, w/o hands demostrated that he could provide for, and defend his own.
I say, "Well done!"
How's your bean curd?
Look, I think it would be great if he improved his typing skills.
SICK outlook!
You got something against shooting deer?
