One of the salesmen at IBM was a JewCatholic agnostic but he still went to temple with his devout brother now and then, just to see his friends. He is the guy who explained the menorah to my daughter when she thought she might try judaism. We had one in the living room for the holidays and she had already lit all of the candles before the first day of Hanukkah. I've sometimes thought that if I were to ever become religious (other than on commercial airplanes) I'd probably look seriously at Judaism. I'd be a hypocrite though. My interest isn't in the teachings. I just like some of the traditions and customs. Lot of the food dishes are pretty good too. -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

You're in favor of sport hunting and I am not. I have no desire or need to try to win you over to my side. You lump,all hunting into sport hunting. Very narrow minded person. Wrong again, Bilil. I don't believe all hunting is sport hunting. I would draw that line at "trophy hunts" and I include fishermen in that. Fortunately actually killing trophy fish is on the decline, mostly driven by the captains who make their living looking for these fish for their customers. "Mounts" are usually just a fiberglass replica anyway so now they encourage taking measurements and maybe a picture, then returning the fish to the water. I think you could do the same thing for trophy hunters if you could change the culture a little. The reality is, that trophy buck is not anything you want to eat anyway. You are a lot better off shooting "Bambi" for food and let the buck go around making more Bambis. Our deer wander through the yard almost daily, but know enough, somehow, not to eat my wife's hostas until the fall. They do like rose petals, though. Sometimes I shoot the deer...with a camera. I wouldn't take a deer either but I have no problem with those who do. We don't really have that many that come into neighborhoods because there is plenty of natural habitat around here. It is pretty much the same with the bears and the hogs. Up closer to Ft Myers and down in East Naples that is not as true. The bears have discovered dumpsters and the hogs have decided the roots of ornamental plants are yummy. Here, we have deer problems. Eat lots of the local foliage. They love roses. Local nursery never has to prune their roses. There are about 10,000 deer killed by hunters, about a million killed by cars in Calif. When you say "deer problems," you mean the problems created by mankind encroaching on their environment and leaving them little option but to forage and, of course, mankind has also killed off many of the natural predators of deer. It's not a deer problem except in the abstract. It's a people problem. Well, move out of your country area. We don't have a deer problem, other than the occasional car-deer collision. They're pretty and graceful animals, and my wife doesn't begrudge them their snacks from her gardens and flowers. Further, I'm reasonably sure they smell better than the guys who hunt them. Ou encroach on their habitat. |

Wolf Gold in .223 is back down under 30 cents a round again. It's my cheap ammo of choice. 100 yards is the farthest distance for shooting to which I have easy access, and for popping targets, .223 and .357 MAG do the job for me, and, if I aim high enough, .22LR. Now, if I could only shoot my revolver really accurately at 50 yards or more... :) The redeeming thing I have heard about the .300 blackout is it is better in sub sonic, which would be important if you have a can. If you just want to shoot a lot, the price of 7.62x39 is hard to beat. The world is awash with it. Brass cased 7.62x39 is just a penny or so a round cheaper than brass cased .223. Brass cased 300 blackout is twice as expensive. The subsonic 300 blackout is substantially more expensive than that. I have some bricks of "suppressor" .22LR ammo, but I haven't perceived that it is quieter than CCI's standard velocity ammo, which can be had nowadays for seven to 10 cents a round if you keep an eye out for it. The subsonic thing mostly affects the sound down range. Behind the barrel you don't hear much of the crack but you get all of the gun noise. 22rf drops below super sonic pretty fast anyway, particularly out of a hand gun. Have you tried these http://www.midwayusa.com/product/250...ead-round-nose I have a couple bricks and they seem very quiet in an unsupressed rifle. They make up for the low speed with more weight to maintain down range performance. Why not use .22 shorts? I think that 65gr bullet would do better on squirrels if that is what you do. Ahh, squirrel hunting...that's what brave men do, because they can make squirrelskin caps for their grandkids and grill the meat on the barbecue. If you live in an Italian boarding house, was squirrel cachetore (so). Krause considers squirrel hunting a show of courage. Probably never ate squirrel in his life. I prefer rabbit, but squirrel's not bad, unless it's a 15 year-old tough assed boar. -- Good grief, the stupid runs deep in you, Herring. Did you make these for your grandkids, Mr. Brave White Hunter? http://tinyurl.com/oy7azwl Oh, you're right...I don't eat rodents like squirrels, mice, rats, prairie dogs, porcupines, beavers, guinea pigs, or hamsters. Or rabbits. Now, if you are hunting armed only with a camera and you get real close to wild animals who can rip off and eat your face, then...you are a brave hunter and sportsman/woman. Guinea pig is tough and greasy. At least the one I was served in Peru. They are raised there for food. The Last Supper paining in the city of Cusco main church has a roasted guinea Pig on the platter. I'll be glad to take your word on that. :) Why would guinea pig be not kosher? Not really swine. Pics http://www.delange.org/CathedralCusc...edralCusco.htm Because it doesn't chew its cud and it doesn't have split hooves. Both are requirements for "meat" to be kosher. Leviticus 11:3-8: Whatever parts the hoof and is cloven-footed and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. Thus, the guinea pig is not kosher. Eat anything you want, it's all "Kosher" https://www.biblegateway.com/passage...6&version=NRSV Oh. Well, my guess is that Jews who observe their religion's dietary laws don't really give a tinker's dam about your religion's rewrite. Thankfully, I don't have to "observe their religion's dietary laws" Besides, people who eat 'kosher' or not have about the same life span. |

If it were otherwise, they'd behave more like Jimmy Carter and less like Ted Cruz. It's a giggle watching you proclaim to know so much about "my" religion and "my" conservative Republican politicians when you know very little about my beliefs, and how you seem to know so much about how I will vote. I may not even vote at all. |
