Imagine you're a poor little pintail on his way to mama.

It takes a really brave man to shoot a duck.



Who does it take to catch a fish?

Would it be OK if you caught ducks on a spinning rod and drown them?
That is what we do with fish

Of course there are millions of people who think fishing is murder
too. It does make shooting an animal with a gun seem pretty humane
when you think about it and really more so if you think of what we do
to the bait. ;-)




The guy moaning about hunting ducks is the same one that proposes human
heads on pikes.

I have never actually been duck hunting. That implies getting up early
and freezing your ass off in a duck blind for a nasty bird I won't eat
but I am not offended by the sport.
It is a fact that Ducks Unlimited has done more to protect the
environment along flyways and preserve the species than all the
PETA/Humane society types combined.


I've been duck hunting just south of Cocoa, FL, along the St. John's River. Had to get up early, but
it was nice and warm, water was warm, and we got a mess of ducks. Didn't have a blind. Just hid in
some trees and bushes along the shore.

Ducks were good eatin'. I guess people who whine about killing ducks don't eat chicken either, or
beef, or pork. Not much sport in the way those critters are killed either. Shoot, they don't even
have a chance to escape!


Last I checked ducks are not a commercial life stock. There are lots
of people who are vegetarians and they are just as outraged by the
killing and eating of chickens, cows, pork, etc.


So have you ever seen how commercial livestock is treated before it's
killed for you to eat? I have. A lot. A wild animal does none of the
suffering that commercial livestock goes through. If you think you are
being a savior to animals because you don't hunt, you are either fooling
yourself or are stupid. And guess what.... I don't hunt.
