lol, wow.big_rig wrote:i was talking to a coworker today and he said that way back when he was driving an 18 wheeler, he was at a truck stop b/s-ing with some other trucker folk while they were all eating. they were mostly talking about hunting and other midwest pastimes, when a lady decided that she would input her two cents about how barbaric they were for killing animals and partaking in such a sport. they kind of laughed it off and the lady storms outside, gets in her benz and speeds off. my coworker and his trucker buddies finish their meals, have a smoke and head out down the highway. my coworker gets about a half hour down the road and he happens to see a benz with its flashers on and the same anti hunting driver standing beside it. so being the midwestern gentleman that he is, he pulls the truck over and gets out to see if he can help the lady out. as he approaches the car, he sees that there is a deer squirming in the road and the front end of the ladies car is disfigured. if you were raised with even a vauge sense of decency, you understand that it is more than wrong to let an animal suffer when there is no chance of survival. meanwhile, another truck driver had pulled over to see if anymore help was needed on the scene and was shortly recruited by my coworker. he explained to the other driver that he needed him to walk in fron of the deer and distract its attention. as the other driver follows his request and walks in front of the deer to distract it, my coworker moves in behind the deer, grabs its head and proceeds to cut its throat. soon there after, a utah state trooper arives on scene and asks what happened. my coworker explains the situation to the officer and his reply was, "you just saved the county .38 cents for the cost of a bullet." gets back in his car and drives off. if that wasn't enough, the lady who had been so anti hunting when they last met had formed a new opinion about hunting after totaling out her benz. she went on to say, "i am sorry about the remarks i had made earlier, now i hope you kill all those sons of b****es!" The End
i will have you know i have many animals and i love them all to death. i am actually many family members who are animal drs. the way that we treat animals is in no way related to this thread what so ever. just because we now have a place to vent our regret for the accidental slaughter of animals that we have encountered while driving through humor, which we use as a coping device, in no way relates to how much our hearts may or may not bleed for animals. all animals that i have ever had the chance to share my home with have been from rescue shelters. my heart bleeds for all of the animal kingdom, i have never worn fur and i am STRONGLY AGAINST factory farming. assume all you would like that we are nothing more than barbaric killers bragging, but everyone has to start somewhere when it comes to expressing their feelings of regret or remorse. just because your first impression of someones intentions are negative, does not mean that their heart is evil. it all comes back to the old saying different strokes for different folks. some things in life we cannot help, so why dwell on it? life is too short, learn to laugh and love.ESP wrote:"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated"~ Mohandas Gandhi
Not that the majority of people in this thread give half a sh*t, but I believe this to my core. In this case, you all fail. Basilikon's right...you're bragging about this. No wonder your country is so bloody violent...
whoa, i dont know if im up for that. i mean, im not a serial killer in the making, i dont surf the web for the most disturbing topics i can find. to be honest, i havent even seen 2 girls 1 cup, i hear a lot of talk about it (which i cover my ears for haha) and i have seen the reaction videos on youtube. hitting an animal in your car on accident, just hearing the thump and not looking back to assess the damage is enough for me. i dont think that any of us on this thread get perverse pleasure from hitting animals.Miss_Lanaya wrote:well well well.... sort of disturbing thread, if you guys are really into killing animals and/or the "circle of life" so its been called then google "earthlings" skip the intro...first 13 min. And actually watch the whole thing....I haven't met many people who can stomach it. I have to say watching that video changed my mind on a lot of different levels, people and I believe far too many people are sick f*cks. Its sad But true.
Nope.Can't do it.Won't do it. I just read some reviews for it. Heard about the part where in China they skinned a fox alive...then the camera zoomed in on it's face...and it blinked. Phucking barbarians. It's no wonder I value animals more than people.Miss_Lanaya wrote:well well well.... sort of disturbing thread, if you guys are really into killing animals and/or the "circle of life" so its been called then google "earthlings" skip the intro...first 13 min.

can nothing born of fire become pure?ESP wrote:That may be true, but this thread hardly seems like a "coping device"... In fact, now referring to it as such seems more like a thinly veiled attempt at justifying the blasé attitudes of most of the posts in here.C'mon man, with a title like "What interesting animals have you ran over?", can you blame me for assuming the worst?
I dunno...it just seems wrong to be trivializing it like this........
LOL, agreed.big_rig wrote: oh and im about 95% anti breeding when it comes to the human race.
Technically, yes. But I'm not going to hold my breath for it. Especially if it involves peoples' "humanity". Am I jaded? Yes...big_rig wrote:can nothing born of fire become pure?

after i get my ticket paid, im going to post the phone number and ladies name that screwed me around just incase anyone else would like to give her a call and wish her a bright and wonderful day! muhahahaESP wrote:
LOL, agreed.
And as for the last part of your comment...I agree. Shenanigans.
asians scare me a little bit, when i was a kid, my brother would take me to china town in san francisco and tell me if i didnt start acting right, he was going to sell my dog and i to a chineese restraunt and they were going to cook me haha. it may sound funny or farfetched, but some of the meat hanging in china town doesnt look too far off from a skinned little boy and his dog haha i still will not go there at nightRanga14 wrote:

I then proceed home and bathe in lambs blood.
Edit: In reference to the skinning of the fox, which actually it was a dog... In some Asian countries, they think the more "pain" the animal goes through before dying, the better it will taste.
ROTFLMAO!! the second one is freakin awesome, i dyed laughing!!!!Ranga14 wrote:lol, that reminds me of this...

They actually skin humans alive as a method of torture too. They'll put a hook through the victim's back and go from there .ESP wrote:

Pissed now...
Thanks for your support in this discussion, ESP. It certainly does not go unappreciated.ESP wrote:"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated"~ Mohandas Gandhi

I guess you've never nailed a deer after coming home from deer hunting and taken him home for dinner, mmm, venison, good stuff.basilikon wrote:

And yes, the USA is one of the most violent countries on the earth; after all, we invented the Looney Tunes (which have been banned in certain foreign countries because of the level of comical violence portrayed in them).
big_rig: I can certainly agree with you concerning the euthanisation of animals which are taunted by humans who then get mauled as a result. I hope that man's health plan didn't cover his injuries; he was foolish to put himself in that situation, and other people on the same health coverage don't deserve to have their rates hiked up for his callousness and stupidity.
And while this thread might not have been draughted with the intent to foster boasting rights, it hardly resonates with sympathy over what happens to animals when they meet your bumper or tires at 55 mph. It's a far cry from that.
Things like this happen from time to time. There's no harm in discussing the issue, whether the discussion is either dispassionate or heartfelt. But this thread didn't begin as a discussion, it's an invitation to an virtual abattoir which uses galvanised rubber, aluminium, FRP, or polyurethane instead of a butcher's cleaver, and in which the participants score street cred for killing animals which they claim they couldn't have avoided anyway.
ESP isn't alone in this. I'm pissed now, too.

...i was going to keep off this topic today, but you know what, if we let the little girl mentality over take our lives, pretty soon we are all going to cry when a buy hits the windshield. animals die, people die, get over it. i dont hear anyone cry when moose kill hunters or when poachers are mauled by their prey. over a thousand people will be murdered today, nine hundred and seventy of those people will not have so much as an obituaries, does my heart bleed for them? no, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time and by some act of man or God, their d!ck hit the dirt. why should i care about an animal that ran out in front of me and just so happened to stop the clock on his life under my tires? im tired of being politically correct. think about the religion you choose to believe in im sure that at one point or another, your God asked you to make a sacrifice of your healthiest animals to him... or maybe when you were asked to smear lambs blood over the top of your door to prevent evil spirits from entering your dwelling. man will always be dominant to beast and we continue to exert our dominance over then. have you never worn a sharks tooth? did you ever have a lucky rabbits foot? have you never kept a fish in the prison cell you call its bowl? do you walk past those who are less fortunate than you and ignore their pleas for help, no matter how trivial it may seem? then you are no better than anyone on this forum. i donate time for the humane society, do you? dont just open your mouth and spew about what you think is injustice, get off your duff and actually get out and do it. your words mean less than nothing to me, your actions however mean more than i could ever express.Ranga14 wrote:
