in reply to: Some People Should NOT Be Bowhunters! #49100
Thanks guys but I plagiarized it, can’t remember who said it, but I can’t take credit.

mine don’t
That is precisely my point, when your right to own a gun comes before everything else, when your right to own a gun is the very first thing you think of when it’s time to vote, something is outta whack! The NRA is the face of this mentality! It’s a pretty juvenile attitude actually, “I want my way regardless of the consequences” is something most of us grow out of.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #49016No, I don’t fear the things I mentioned. I see them more as challenges to overcome. No problem should be met with a rash decision or panicked thinking. There is a time to act but not before all avenues have been explored. I do believe things should be prioritized.
No, I have not watched the video. Time is something I don’t seem to have a lot of these days, it’s all I can do to keep up with the posts here. I know I’m missing some good points to argue with you so I’ll try to watch in the next few days.:D
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #48988Sorry dude, read a little closer, the operative word is fear. I don’t believe any good thing can happen when you are motivated by fear.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #48881I’m sorry, but I have a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that everything we hold near and dear is here(WOW a triple) because the NRA is here. MAN AM I TIRED OF TYPING THIS, but here goes. NO ONE ON THIS FORUM INCLUDING ME HAS EVER DENOUNCED OUR RIGHT TO OWN GUNS. That is not what we are discussing. We are discussing the idea that there is a better way to protect that right.
I think I’ve already said this but…oh yeah there it is right above these words.
NRA: noun; Bureaucratic organization first founded to educate gun owners and protect 2nd amendment rights. Has since become republican party fund raiser and fog machine to scare the bejezzers out of law abiding gun owners by way of paranoia towards our government officials and any one else who doesn’t see things their way. From johnny2 dictionary vol 1.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear: but of power and of love and of a sound mind: II Timothy 1:7.
in reply to: Some People Should NOT Be Bowhunters! #48834As I’ve stated before I think it all comes down to the fact that hunting is not a spectator sport.
Don’t take anything on here personal Steve. Just a bunch of folks sharing thoughts.
in reply to: Some People Should NOT Be Bowhunters! #48720Amen and amen, if we don’t clean it up as an outdoor community someone WILL step in and do it for us.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #47748Man, I could give you report upon report about more serious matters. Pollution, climate change(man-made or natural course, still a cause for concern), corporate greed, economic meltdown, war, exploitation of our wild places, loss of family values, violence among teens, third world poverty, poverty here, I could go on and on and on and on…. Kinda sounds like a Billy Joel song don’t it? My point is my freedom to own whatever gun I want takes a back seat to all of these. But because these rights are constantly being portrayed as hanging by a thread with the NRA as the only thing between us and the scissors that is where we throw our support and our money.
in reply to: If you're interested in artifacts, Native American #47731My bad, I scheduled my African head to go on starting tonight. 6pm central time.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #47114Why do you think they are “the best way”? I think most folks think this because it is the “only way” they have ever known and that it is constantly shoved down our throats, by the NRA mind you, that they ARE the only way and that without them we would be screwed. Scare tactics at their finest, or worst depending on your perspective of course.
Again I gotta say Steve Graf absolutely nailed it. It’s a way to divert our attention from much more pressing matters.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #46590I’m sorry, but I have a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that everything we hold near and dear is here(WOW a triple) because the NRA is here.

And yes, as I said in my opening statements, I like to stir the pot, pour the gas, throw the coal, whatever you want to call it. Even if I say I don’t want to, I really do. Thank you for reiterating that.
in reply to: NRA pros and cons #44288By golly! It’s nice to find someone that agrees with me on this tired old subject(Steve Graf’s comments on “Our rights are quietly being stripped away” in this forum). But dang it, Does he have to say it so much better than me using so many fewer words!!:D
in reply to: Tell Us About Your Username #42447=”Patrick”][quote=Iamabowman]Well, I think it says it all.
Not necessarily so! I was looking at your name, trying to figure it out, thinking to myself, “Maybe he misspell Llama”? LMAO! I thought the “I” was an “L”. It took me a bit. Unfortunately, I’m not joking.:oops: Yes, I know, somethings are best kept to ourselves.:lol:
[In best Tonto voice]You not Lone Ranger Patrick, me johnny2, think same thing!
I really am a doofus, how do you put the quote you want in the little blue thingy?
Never mind I figured it out.
in reply to: skeletons in your closet #30277Update. Last week I talked to a friend of mine that owns a meat packing company(slaughterhouse for those not so p.c.), this guy processes between 3000 and 4000 deer every year for at least the last fifteen years, somebody do the math, that’s a lot of deer! I posed the question about the void. He told me there is definitely a space between the lungs and spine on a deer that can be hit by a bullet or arrow which is not fatal to the deer. He has seen numerous deer with scar tissue from old wounds on pass through shots that happened in seasons past. Think what you want but I believe a guy with this much hands on experience with deer carcasses would know.

You really just can’t help it, can you Patrick.
