There's no end to it. From the issues we have here with puppy farms, putting to sleep of unwanted dogs, the hard life poor old pigeons get with their poor little deformed feet and nobody to help them, fur farms, dog fighting and the use of cats in "baiting", boiling lobsters alive, production of foie gras, halal meat, battery hens, zoos to the likes that China gets away with - selling dogs for meat, keeping bears chained for their bile (last year a mother bear killed her cub and then herself under these conditions) - sigh the list is endless and I try to just help out in my own little corner of the world because when I think about animal abuse as a global issue I get all consumed and over-burdened and can't even function!

Oh and the tearing a calf away from it's hysterical mother so that we can have milk in our coffee and veal on our plates A mother is a mother regardless of species.

Jesus sometimes I just hate the human race.

I'm exactly the same. I can't wait to go home to see my rescue kitty and cuddle him. He's got me and my OH wrapped around his ginger paws

Leave Nicholas Cage alone. Leaving Las Vegas was amazing.

Sure, he has had some good ones. but he has been in a savage amount of crap. Not on his own there, a major annoyance for me is when someone with the talent of Robert DeNiro will star in absolute muck, the man has not made a decent film in years. Ok, steam is starting to come out of my ears, I need to breathe..........:D

Whats with some of a certain Irish TV stations news readers saying the word "Controversy" but pronouncing it
controv-esey, there's a second "r" in it, PROUNOUNCE IT.
Try saying controversial, without using the second r, nuff said.
It's very annoying if not Trivially so,

When people pronounce definately as

Deaf-in-eye-at-ley

I always thought that was a joke phrase, like say the phrase "that's pure mule" but apparently not. People pronounce that like its an actual word

That hit a nerve. I am currently super píssed at whatever inebriate is up my area shooting Bambi every night! (and according to our local ranger, he's not meant to be shooting in the dark er...so to speak)

If the bollocks is shooting deer at night he's definitely illegal and needs a legal Size-12 quaaare lively.

That's because they're choosing to pronounce the 'i' in definitely.

You've misspelled it :pac:

If the guy is shooting at night and you cant hear him, he's using a suppresser or a silencer which are illegal to use here, afaik.
Or as a guy I know who does the culling (legally) it's a grey area, they're illegal if your caught, not if you don't. says it all about them eh?:mad:

Why are different guns used for killing different animals? Surely a gun/bullet is all the same

No. An appropriately powerful weapon/cartridge should be used to drop the creature in question instantly. Cartridges range from .17-cal pistol (small projectile, small amount of propellant) to .50-cal BMG a.k.a. Browning Machine-Gun (large projectile, propelled like a naval artillery round) and very many in-between.

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

So you couldn't use the same gun for killing a deer that you'd use for shooting a rabbit? And how far will the bullet go if it's not shot at a target? I am fascinated with guns but not for shooting at animals

selous

A grizzly bear will laugh at you if you shoot it with a small handgun, so the bigger the animal the bigger the calibre and so you can kill rather than injure it, if you're at distance that it still has the power to do that.

Hi there, Anyway, I lurk, and as soon as I have discovered a TA that drives me mad, someone else posts the very same feckin thing before me!

A powerful centrefire rifle, such as a .220 Swift, a .243 Winchester or, saints preserve us, a .50-cal BMG, is accurate out to a thousand yards in the right hands and with suitable optics. The projectile is lethal out to a mile and more.

The prophet Mo-hammed tells you how and what to eat, who to fcuk, when to pray and how to wipe your ass. But you still need a Texan to show you how to shoot.

Something is wrong with your Tomatoe and/or Pineapple.
Or you just machete the f**k out of everything
Or else I'm teeing you up to sell you something from an American Infomercial.

"No more changing knives when you cut different foods"
*show a person failing to cut a lemon and then a potato
"Now all your cutting needs can be dealt with in one, simple, easy way"

The point is that different tools will implement different amounts of damage depending on the size and the amount of force applied aswell as the resistance to said force.
Big, heavy, pointy bullet flying VERY Fast will hurt more than a smaller, lighter, rounder bullet flying ever so slightly slower.

PHYSICS FOR THE WIN!

I was taught to shoot by a gun toting Vietnam vet in Michigan in the gun range he built on his farm.
The 30-30 was the best gun to shoot.....but by golly, I had no aim with it.

The point is I can cut a tomatoe and a pineapple with the same knife, and do it well. However, you cannot slice a lemon and cut a tree down with the same tool, that is the point.

People insinuating I'm old. Girl in work today kept talking about kids.
Her: have you got any children?
Me: no. You?
Her: God no. I'm only 25!


Cheek of that, implying I'm older
