FreeflyChile 0 #2 March 7, 2008 That's pretty good aim (even if it took several tries) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 35 #3 March 7, 2008 QuoteThat's pretty good aim (even if it took several tries) Yeah, and he's a PGA golfer to boot. What gets me is that he got all excited after he nearly hit the hawk, and kept trying until he did. THEN he's crying and remorseful and apologizing afterwards... Those kinds of people don't get my sympathy, I guess..."Mediocre people don't like high achievers, and high achievers don't like mediocre people." - SIX TIME National Champion coach Nick Saban Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

base428 1 #5 March 7, 2008 It's just a bird. Big deal. Humans kill and eat birds everyday (chickens, turkeys, etc.). I had chicken for lunch, by the way. Tasty.(c)2010 Vertical Visions.

kelpdiver 2 #6 March 7, 2008 if his goal was really just to scare it away - running at the bird would have worked just fine. Probably could have sent the film crew to do it for him. For a guy that can't keep his PGA card, not the kind of publicity he needed. No sponsor exemptions coming for him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was rasied not to kill what you are not going to eat. Disrespect to animals is just that and it really shows a person for what they are.www.greenboxphotography.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was rasied not to kill what you are not going to eat. Disrespect to animals is just that and it really shows a person for what they are. I agree, mostly...just not sure PETA would care about the rat. Still, there can be situations where a balance needs to be maintained. We're already seeing a backfire effect to some conservation efforts....especially wildlife. Overpopulation of predators means big trouble....the PA Game Commission has proven that. Oddly enough, I don't see the same degree of interest in protecting domestic pets, that there seems to be in protecting food-source animals and wildlife. As far as I'm concerned....anyone who would harm a trusting, loving animal...would not hesitate and is also most likely, to do the same to a child."T'was ever thus."
