1. Yes, they always have offered hunting trips.
And I think that it should not be allowed.

2. I think its awful. My daddy always said, I'd be all for hunting if you
gave the deers and bears guns too.

3. Right. Each side should be equally armed.
It's funny that they call it a sport because the other side doesn't know that there is a game going on.

4. This isn't hunting. It's just killing animals.
Hunting, by definition, means that the "hunted" has a chance for escape, survival, or in reality, return attack. A "sportsman" that goes into the brush with a guide who warrants at least a shot at the particular animal you've signed on to kill, isn't hunting.

In addition, if this ranch's spread is fenced and stocked, then this is canned hunting, which is a whole other story.

BTW, why isn't Jeff (who's offering this bargain) in Iraq? They could sure use some seasoned marksmen, and recruiting has been down.

5. A friend of mine was watching banged up
and he found a clip of a hunter shooting at a deer in a river and stated "You cant shoot deer in a river, they're defenseless" :wow: I said to him and its any more defenseless out in a field?

Same friend told me that every hunter will vote republican no matter who is running due to guns. I just dont understand..

6. No, not all hunters vote Republican.
I work for an outdoors publication and we have 7 editors who are all hunters. And 4 of them voted Democrat.

8. Not all hunters
"...every hunter will vote republican no matter who is running due to guns."

Not this one, and not many of the ones I know.
