TV Host/hunter being bashed for her latest kill

I have never had to defend or explain shooting lions which is good because I don't know if I could come up with any reasonable explanation. Same with alligators and some other critters that some hunters feel they must kill.

LOL. Same old Duffy. Running down those who don't hunt what you hunt or just like you, in your little passive aggressive way. Not a wonder you were canned on AO, I wonder how long you'll last here...

Alligator is very tasty, BTW.

Boy you have quite an imagination. I don't believe i said or implied anything of the sort.

There are other hunters who hunt things and use techniques I don't care for and I think it is perfectly within my scope to say so. And as a matter of fact I don't think other hunters farts smell like roses (don't take that the wrong way I am not "running then down" for that)

Getting kicked off AO was a huge mistake or a series of huge mistakes and misunderstandings. However we can grow from injustice in our lives.

I actually got the same thing out of your "must" kill comment Duff. Perhaps you didn't mean it that way but it sure came across that way.

It's encouraging seeing hunters rallying in support of Melissa Bachman....now if we could only hold those in our own ranks to the same standards when they start bashing on other hunters and imposing their personal ethics. Anti hunters are a concern....but hunters publically bashing other hunters will be the end of our great heritage!

This is not a statement that someone pro-hunting would make.
It is too bad because we should not have to defend our "hobbies" to another "hunter"
 
Oh well, the Brits. have their knickers in a knot over hunting. Bachman better watch out or she's in line for a sternly worded letter!!

How times have changed in the UK.
 
I was never a fan of Trophy hunting but, i was educated on here by some good hunters. I have no doubt that anything and everything she killed was eaten. Probably feeding a village over there. Trophy hunters also do lots for conservation and put a lot of money into places that are in poverty. Ive watched her stuff on youtube, she is a nice lady. Hot too!
 
Oh man, you guys should look up Winchester Deadly Passion on Youtube, just look at the comments!

A north American lady hunts and kills a lion and she is driven into hiding and slandered..... African boys in some tribes kill those same lions as part of a journey to manhood without word.... I don't get it. These people shouldn't be taking this up with their government, not attacking this lady!

yes they have said some horribe stuff to her, people are even looking for her address. Sick.
 
Don't knock lion hunting till you've tried it, it is an adrenaline rush and done in the bush with real wild self feeding lions is a true sport let me tell you. It also entails a great deal of walking and a lot of disappointments, over the course of 2 or 3 weeks. Not to mention day after day of 50 deg plus heat and nights where it drops to a frigid 30 deg C. The sand burns your feet till they blister if you're not careful and you can dehydrate till you start to get dizzy and fall down in less than 2 hours................buy why, you ask? Cause I really hate cats in general, and lions are just really big cats, besides it is legal and very sporting, done correctly and ethically, not to mention exciting and just a little dangerous. Nothing like a 5-600 kitty wanting to play with you as if you were their own oversize mouse, to get the adrenaline pumping. And yes the locals not only eat them they actually relish eating lion, one of the better meats they say.

Nothing, but his point is that she was on a legal hunt as authorized by the government. If they want to do something about it go after the government he controls the hunt, not the hunter.

How do you know what his point is?

But I'm equally confused by your comments, why should we encourage anyone to do anything here to stop this practice? Why not call a spade a spade and just tell the antis how uninformed they are or better yet, ignore their nonsense. I definitely don't think offering up suggestions of how to further their cause is prudent. What did the government do wrong?

You certainly implied it!!!!

Are you implying, that I was implying, that hunters should not hunt anything that I don't hunt or "Running down those who don't hunt what you hunt or just like you"

Sorry but if you guys read between the lines and see something that is not there, then perhaps it is just coming out of some funny spot in your brain.

There will always be people who do not understand the views and actions of others.

So they hate us for killing things and we hate them for not agreeing with us. Sounds like a good recipe for...more of the same.

When ever I meet someone who does not understand hunting I try to enlighten and educate them. Sometimes it works. Poking a finger in their eye never seems to bring any positive results.

I have never had to defend or explain shooting lions which is good because I don't know if I could come up with any reasonable explanation. Same with alligators and some other critters that some hunters feel they must kill.

You should educate yourself and then you will be able to come up with a reasonable explanation. Just as you take it upon yourself to educate others, educate yourself so you do not remain ignorant of the topic.

Seeing as many of us thought the same Duffy, it's doubtful we all share the same funny spot in our brain. Perhaps it was your wording? Just something to consider.
