See now, your entire post lost its meaning when you resorted to calling her names.

I have to agree that i think it's all in the way you were raised, save a few people.

I don't hunt, except to shoot woodchucks in the garden, and sorry, but I don't eat those.

In Alaska, wolves are considered vermin.

anna, you forget one critical thing...


those dogs and your neighbor's cat are pets owned by a human responsible for them.

I'm just honestly wondering....

Are all of you crying "foul" on behalf of these beautiful, friendly, cuddly wolves vegetarians? Have any of you seen how cows live and die for our beef industry? How about chickens?

I'm just wondering how far the hypocrisy goes??

As usual, I don't agree entirely with either. Neither is entirely consistent. But as with some other issues, I'm much closer to McCain.

I have been shot once by a .12 gauge across a lake (in AK) by a game warden. It was a mistake. We were duck hunting, so it was 4 shot instead of slugs. No pellets penetrated, but they stung like heck and left marks. I was almost shot once by a .38 by a nervous gas station attendant. He probably thought I was going to rob the place. When it went off, I thought it was just a pneumatic press. Almost wet myself when I realized what it was.

My view on guns is too complicated to explain in a few sentences, but one thing I have noticed. I took my oldest to a gun range for the first time before she left for college. Will take my youngest in a year or two. I think every kid should know how to handle them. (I tried to take my wife many years ago - and practiced with a toy gun before we went, but after she pointed the real thing at me twice in a one minute period, we packed up, left and have not been back. )

OTOH, I have witnessed a number of catastrophes, near catastrophes, or potential catastrophes. I'm quite convinced that most accidents are caused by people who think they are so good that they don't have to follow the most elementary safety precautions. I would like to see an amendment (and appropriate EOs) that address this issue. One of my acquaintances, my brother's room-mate, shot himself in the foot with a .22. Maybe a week or so later he goes out and buys a Desert Eagle .357, instead of taking time to pause and review his gun safety procedures. Now I'm the last guy to care whether Einstein blows his foot off, but I strongly prefer he not be in the lane next to me (or my kids) the next time he tries an experiment in projectile physics.
