What a shame you haven't lost interest in some of Gods other harmless, innocent and defenceless creatures

Actually I haven't had wild rabbit since my grandmother cooked some way back in the 60's

Don't like rabbit, I much prefer a freshly wrung chicken

I'm guessing you don't consider a chicken a 'harmless, innocent and defenceless creature'

Not when I'm hungry, no

 

[KenHigg]

Not when I'm hungry, no

If you were hungry and had a gun, would you shoot one?

My family use to raise chickens when I was a little girl. I helped to prepare them for dinner. The plucking was the worse.

And yes chickens are VERY mean. I hated having to go get the eggs. Those li'l beaks are very hard and accurate.

Yup, I'm a country girl.

I remember my dad trying to kill a hog with a .22 He was standing point blank aiming right between the eyes and pow!.... Nothing. The hog just looked at him. Then, POW, POW, POW....Still nothing. Finally he just bopped him in the head with a sledge hammer...

Hogs are VERY mean. We didn't have any of those. We had chickens, geese, ducks, and rabbits. We only consumed the chickens. The geese are for protection, and the rabbits were pets.

No need Ken, I can go to the butchers, don't you have grocery stores over there?

A hog is a pig isn't it?

Point blank infers that one need not be a good shot

Hog = Pig

 

[Rich]

I know what point blank is

So how come he didn't hit it then?

Col

 

[KenHigg]

A .22 is a real small bullet

 

[Rich]

A .22 is a real small bullet

wouldn't a bow and arrow have worked better ?

 

[KenHigg]

In this case, probably

I recently saw a fascinating program about pigs. I learned that domesticated pigs are genetically identical to wild boars, yet they tend to grow smaller with light, thin hair and small tusks and aren't nearly as aggressive. However, if a domesticated pigs escapes into the wild, its appearance changes dramatically within a matter of weeks. Its hair grows in coarser and thicker, its tusk grow longer, it gets larger and it becomes more aggressive. I had never heard of such a dramatic physical change in an animal like that.

The very same thing happens to Republicans when released into the public domain
