Murder victim kills his murderer

I don't mean to nitpick, but the name of this chat does not match what the news tells us about what happened. The bear was shot by one person, but it landed on another person and that other person is who is dead, not the person who fired the shot.

God bless you and the victim's family and the shooter always!!!

P.S. The person who fired the shot, I can only imagine how he has felt ever since. :( :( :(
 
They are right scrappy and easier to keep-up with....Right still-mouthed though. ;)
Unless they're fighting amongst themselves, then they come out with some blood-curdling sounds. :omg:
 
That problem was solved several years ago. Bird deaths immediately dropped 70 percent when they started painting one blade black.
Bit they still kill millions per year. So not "solved."

And I've never seen a black blade on a windmill.

Ever.

That problem was never solved. There are almost no turbine blades painted black.

The problem is not the color, it is the speed, they spin to fast.

I don't think you'd like hunting bear in Canada. They use donuts for bait.
Ex husband went bear hunting all the time with his dad. Men from Los Angeles would always hire the old man and my ex to take them "bar huntin'". They used coon hounds. Lots of them. At least 15. Would run that "bar" until it was too exhausted to run any more and would climb a tree. Then the "men" would sit under that thar tree and have a beer or two then shoot the poor bear down. BUT...they did eat it. They didn't do it for sport only. They wanted BAR meat.
I thought it bullshit, though. Wanna hunt bear? Then do it like a real man. Stalk it, hunt it, kill it, eat it, use the fur for a rug. In short, use the animal as God intended.
 
No it's not. Using dogs is a sport that takes dedication and much time training and breeding the dogs
Whatever floats your boat. In MY opinion, its chickenshit to use dogs to hunt bear. Period.I love all animals, so hunting them and using ALL of the animal is fine. Hunting to mount their head on a wall is cowardly. Probably the same kinda guys that use dogs are the same ones that have those rubber balls hanging from the back end of their monster trucks on the back bumper. Compensation for lack of any of their own.

A black painted blade? You gotta be kidding. So even if the black blade scenario is true they still justify 30% of migratory endangered bird deaths. A non native American citizen could be arrested for possession of a single eagle feather but the wind industry shovels them up and burns them without a worry.

Aug 27, 2020 · Dousing just one of a wind turbine’s three blades in black paint dramatically reduced the number of birds the turbines killed in a multi-year study conducted in Norway.

More birds die hitting building windows than wind turbines.

Aug 24, 2024 · A groundbreaking research study published in PLOS ONE today has uncovered alarming new evidence that building collisions are killing significantly more birds than previously thought.
 
My friend's uncle was a Wildlife and State Ranger. This one old boy and his friends would illegally 'run' a deer at night with dogs, and they just would not quit even when so ordered. The Ranger poisoned their dogs one night.

We could say any way of hunting is chickenshit. Man always wins.

The proper culling of wild animal makes for a healthy population.

I don't hunt cause I don't eat wild meat. I guess I would agree that scarying the hell out of bears is not being, sporting.
 
Murder? For some perspective there is a hunting season on bears and they are plentiful. Not often discussed is the fact that Hussein Obama issued a blanket pardon to the wind energy industry to kill endangered migratory birds. The turbine chops them up so there isn't much left to fall
You still haven`t gotten over the fact that a Black man served 2 terms as POTUS. "Hussein Obama"? Grow up, kiddo.

That aside bear hunting with dogs is both a political and cultural issue here in Virginia.

A proposed ban comes-up every few years, mainly due to the hunters following their dogs onto private property without the owner's permission.....It's called fair chase.

Virginia's eastern hunters loth the practice and would see it banned but western hunters love it. Much of it is due to the border regions where on one side of the blue ridge it's allowed and the other it isn't, same with hunting deer with dogs in the piney woods/swamp eastern regions of the state. There they can run deer with dogs.....Not sure about bear.

The closest to being banned statewide (bear) was when bear were being live trapped in my region (professional bear trappers) and toted to the western region and being turned loose to be run by dogs.

There was no regulation against live trapping bear at the time. We stopped that shit cold once it was discovered. I caught a "convoy" moving out of the hollow we hunted. They had six bear they were moving.

I called the farmer on the end of the only road out and he called the game warden, parked a tractor with a hay bailer on the road, pretended it was broke down, and blocked the road till the game warden got there.

The game warden could find no regulation either way but he made the trappers turn the bear they had trapped loose when they could not produce any landowner permissions to be trapping on their property.

The trappers were none too happy about it but by then the State Police and SD had showed-up. It was getting to be quite a party. ;)

LOL.....By the time they were given the bum's rush I bet there were 30-40 irate residents there....Even the Park Ranger and an ambulance from the VFD showed up. :laughing0301:

Given Virginia is much more left-leaning now and transplants are taking the place of the older more understanding and traditional Virginians I suspect the practice of running bear with dogs has more years behind it than it has in front of it.
