My wife wants me to give up hunting

Is she afraid that you might go out and gun down a lot of people? I know that this episode has probably given a lot of wives something new and frightening to think about, but asking you to give up your guns really doesn't seem to relate to all this.

"This could have just as easily happened on the street somewhere. "

I think it is 100 times more likely to happen in the streets then in the woods. I don't think that I have ever heard of such an atrocity carried out in the woods before and hope to never hear about it again! I understand your wife's concern, but I, for one, refuse to live in fear of what might happen. When God decides it's time for me to go home, then I will go and until then I will live life to its fullest!

This could have just as easily happened on the street somewhere. It is not a hunting accident. This guy had it in his mond he was going to kill that day, and not a deer. JMHO.

Could not agree more. It is a sad tragedy.

In a sense, this guy is a terrorist as well as a murderer. I am sure many people out there are really paying a lot of attnetion to this and surely some will have some really poor thoughts that they will associate with hunters due to this.

Re: My wife wants me to give up hunting

my wife has watched hunting slowly consume my life!!!! i think about hunting while fishing, while camping and just about everything else!!!! she already told me she wouldn't ask me to give it up ever cuz she can tell how much it means to me!!!!!!! my wife also knows that i was qualified expert with an m-16 while in the army!!!!! m-16 is way different from a slu gun but i have this natural ability to hit what i'm aiming at or at least be very close!!!! she isn't worried at all about me getting shot,,, it helps that i have a pair of reversable coveralls (one side camo - other side blaze orange ) during firearms season i show the blaze side!!!!!!! because it is obvious that some people are just plain nuckin futs....please be safe in the woods ya just never know what kinda waco will be there with you!!!!! grin.gif

Re: My wife wants me to give up hunting

Well I love her

But I love to hunt

I spend all day in the woods

And **** is all I get

Today she met me at the door

Said I would have to choose

If I hit that honey hole today

She'd be packin' all her things

And she'd be gone by noon

Well I'm gonna miss her

When I get home

But right now I'm on this woodline

And I'm sittin' in the tree

I'm sure it'll hit me

When I walk through that door tonight

That I'm gonna miss her

Oh, lookie there, here comes a buck

Now there's a chance that if I hurry

I could beg her to stay

But that cloud cover is just right

And the weather's perfect

No tellin' what I might get today

Well I'm gonna miss her

When I get home

But right now I'm on this woodline

And I'm sittin' in the tree

I'm sure it'll hit me

When I walk through that door tonight

That I'm gonna miss her

Oh, lookie there,here comes a buck

Yeah,

I'm gonna miss her

Oh, lookie there, i've got a BUCK smile.gif
