The answers are A., A., A. Alcohol is the most dangerous drug that is legally used. It has caused more deaths than all of the illegal drugs combined. Yet, it is advertised and pushed on to the next generation of legal drinkers to come of age. Personally I'd like to see it banned at all events including dropzones. Drunk people are a danger to everyone. They are obnoxous, ignorant fools. I never stay at the dz when the beer light comes on. I much rather be far away from those people who get falling down drunk or want to bend your ear for an hour talking gibberish. I actually laugh my ass off when one of them gets a dwi. Maybe they will learn something. It also seems that the biggest drunks on any dz are those who don't even skydive. Go over to the bonfire and take a look at the jump numbers and years in the sport of those who constantly post about how much they drink at the dz and at home. I think those people are only around for the drinking and want to boast that they are skydivers but never actually jump. Being a drunk on the dz makes you look like a moron. Being a drunk on the dz who does even skydive makes you look like, well, just a stupid drunk. If your only there for the booze, go away and take the booze with ya. I should maybe look into what the airport authority thinks about all of the drinking that goes on at city operated airports. Chances are they wouldn't be very happy about it. Likewise with smoking and jumping. If ya want to get stupidly drunk, go home and do it. If ya want to smoke a joint, go home and do it. Safer for everyone.

Can we please keep this discussion out of Speakers' Corner. Please, please pretty please? Feel free to start a parallel topic over there but right now I'm just looking for a little support from my friends in Bonfire. A lot of freaking good your bonfire friend support system will do ya when someone gets in and rape and kills you. If you are unwilling to protect yourself with violence then it is your own fault when you find yourself on the ground bleeding. Get a weapon and learn how to use it. The cops will not protect you as it is not their job to do so. They only come into play after the crime. Your friends on this board are definetly not going to protect you. Feely good support does absolutely no good when someone is splattering your grey matter against your chalky white walls. Only you can protect yourself. If you are unwilling to do that, then you are the one to blame for what happens to you. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

ExAFO, is that you? ExAFO gets banned and the very next day Esquilax pops up with the same posting style. Hmmm. Hmmmm, I was thinking the exact samething. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

It is not the pot that fucks up their lives, it is the law that fucks it up. On the otherhand, your legal drug of choice is responsible for many ruined lives. Skid row is full of those whose life was ruined due to your legal drug. Alcohol is a highly addictive, dangerouse drug. It makes people stupid. It makes many violent. It is responsible for a high number of motor vehicle deaths. Loss time at work. Work related accidents. Health problems. Divorce, child abuse, spouse abuse. The list goes on and on with the problems your drug of choice has cost society. With so many problems that your legal drug has caused, it should be illegal. Just go to near any dz after the beer light is turned and watch how moronic the people get. Some stay up until the early morning hours drinking and then gear up a few hours later to jump. People jump hungover and laugh about it. Fucking idiots. I'm not against drinking a few and calling it quits. I like a cold beer once in a very great while. I also like a shot of bourbon a few times a year. But, there are many who drink every night until they are shitfaced drunk. I've seen so many people leave the dz after downing a crap load of beer. I hope that they kill only themselves if they are to be in an accident due to their driving drunk so that innocent lives are not ruined due to your legal drug.

Why hassle with some shitbag troll. It is highly likely that this sheepfucker has never done a jump. The troll has no info in his/her profile. The only thing the shitsucker has ever posted is hate and ignorance. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

Man, I live for the day when I can bag a Mule deer. Nothing but white tail down here. The buck I got last saturday is the biggest I've seen up on the land we hunt. If I ever get around to it, I'd like to buy a .270 and equip it with a scope. My brother uses a .270 with a dawn to dusk scope. Open sights suck at sunrise and sunset.

he should had done as Mark Mcguire did, just don't answer the questions. Can't lie if you don't open your mouth. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

Some "boobie thread". A grand total of 4 boobies posted, (or 5 if you include the damn bird). Or this one. Just a little something for the ladies "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

My nephew is a cop in Lenexa Ks.. He never eats donuts however, Taco Bell is probably the safest place to be when he is on duty. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

Thank you. I've used scopes in the past and they are fine if the deer isn't moving fast. Open sights are far better when the deer is twisting and turning. Also my Winchester is 88 years old and putting a scope on it would be a sin. That and drilling into her to mount a scope would bring the value down. Not that I am really concerned about the value as I never plan on selling her. Will be back in the hills come saturday morning to fill this doe tag and then again in december for the doe only hunt.

My house was burglarized in San Diego back in 83. A detective by the name of Fellows called me several months later saying he found my Les Paul and my scuba gear. He also knew who who did it. More than a year later he caught up with the guy and made an arrest. The D.A. flew me back to SD and put me up in the Holiday Inn downtown for the trial. Sometimes they really do their job. Now, when my truck was stolen in Mississippi, I was told there was no chance that it would ever be found. I guess that was their way of saying they were never going to look for it.

Props for not having using the deerstand over the corn feeder like most "hunters". BTW-Why didn't you shoot him when he was close? I didn't know he was coming up in back of me until he grunted. The area he was coming thruogh was very thick with brush and trees. I was set up to watch the treelines and the pasture. He came up alongside of me and stopped and then stuck his head into the brush I was in. That was when he noticed me. Had i tried to get a shot off before, he would had bolted back into the brush and trees the split second I would had moved. I was waiting for the clean shot as he would had stepped right in front of my rifle had he not noticed me. Spent all day from 5am till near 5pm back up in the hills. Even though rubs and droppings were plenty, not one deer did i see. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

Obvious that you do give a shit, one way or the other, you posted your opinion. The battle to change the law has been going on for well over 30 years. There are many well organized grassroot groups that have overturned convictions and have changed laws concerning mj for personal and medical use. I see by your statement concerning spray cheese and teletubbies that you are one who buys into stereotyping people. Many of the worlds most intelligent minds were pot smokers. Maybe you consider that Carl Sagan was a moron? Hmmm you should pull your head out of the sand and look around you. I guarantee that on a daily basis you come in contact with at least one person whom have just smoked a joint and you have no clue that they had done such. The stereotype that pot smokers are lazy dropouts is so far from the truth it cannot be explained. Honestly, I don't even know why I am responding to your post as I feel you are but a non-skydiving troll.

Doors don't move like greased lightening, twisting and turning. Not to mention that there was cattle also present in front and in back of the target that were also spooked and moving. I'm happy you can hit a door at fifty yards. If I ever need someone to kill a door for me, I'll call you. I'll use my rounds for the deer. Besides, I can hit a moving deer at over 200 yards and I use open sights (I'll never put a scope on my Winchester). I get the feeling your a city boy. Have you ever actually went deer hunting? Do you know the signs that tell you how the deer are moving? Do you know how a buck sounds or how a doe sounds. Do you know how a yearling sounds? Can you call a buck? How about a doe? Deer can hear the faintest sound and can see and smell anything out of place in its home, the woods. So, have ya ever deer hunt? If not, you know nothing about what it takes to bring a big deer down. I've placed a round in the kill spot and still have had to track the deer for near 3 to 4 miles. Not easy to follow a blood trail through the woods, up and down the hills, through creek beds and thick brush. Even harder to do when the shot is made at sunset and you spend the next 5 hours tracking it. Unless you know how to do that, best you do your hunting in the meat section of the grocery store. To the folks who dispise deer hunting, you should be glad that it happens. Over popukated deer herds cause major crop damage, property damage, as well as car accidents that kill people. Thinning the herd helps to keep produce cost down, keeps property safe and makes the roads safer (I see deer everyday on my road). Thinning the herds also reduce the chance for certian illnesses to flourish that cause havoc amongst the deer population. Hunting is the balances that keeps them healthy. Deer season also puts meat on the tables of a lot of people. People who would not otherwise have much to eat. A lot of venison is donated to the needy. Deer may look all cute and friendly but, it is a wild animal and they can be mean. A cornered buck will charge you with antlers down. I know several guys who have been badly hurt by a pissed off deer. I'm going back out on wednesday and then again in December.

And I assume you are a vegetarian??? Uhhhhm...no. I have been known to consume a herbivore or two. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

Well you deserve the flack for taking a nice firearm representing military history, and chopping it up to sporterize it! . . . Just kidding... Nice buck. Thanks John. The rifle was probably sporterized not long after WW1. From an arms collector website, Springfield Research, I found that it was manufactured in Jan. 1919 and never saw combat. It went to a base in New Jersey and disappeared from there. Most likely a soldier took it as many of the 1917's were being sold to surplus or shipped overseas. Many of the soldiers returning also kept theirs and sporterized it. Harry S. Truman was one of them. He hunted his whole life with his. I bought mine in 1987 at a gunshop in Indiana. I paid around $150.00 for it. A few years ago I took it to the gunsmith at Bass Pro shop over in Springfield. He valued it at more than $1000.00. I've seen a couple of them with the same stock. One guy rtold me the stock was from the early 20's to early 30's. The same with the sights. Most likely was a kit sold by someone to sporterize military weapons.

Southwest Missouri Ozarks We typically don't see very large deer in these parts due to lack of crops. These deer feed on acorns and clover. "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

N/A

Shot him at just past 9 on openning day. He came within 3 to 5 yards before he noticed me in the brush. He turned and ran about 20 yards then swung back and bolted up the rise in a pasture. 2 shots to get. The first entered above the shoulder on the rightside. He dropped and immediatly got back up and started to go to his left and up the rise again. The second shot entered at the same location but, on the leftside. The round traveled up his neck and slammed into the bottom of the skull cap. It cracked the cap, busted the bottom of one antler and then came to rest under the hide on his nose. Both shots were at near 50 yards. Winchester Model of 1917 30-06. Oddly this deer dropped just yards from where I dropped a doe last year.

It seems so few know of this great bourbon. JD is merely a soft drink next to the Mark "...And once you're gone, you can't come back When you're out of the blue and into the black." Neil Young

So much talk about JD... ahemmmm... (just clearing the way for another smooth roll of the Mark... my choice for fine bourbon)...
