True Sportsmen Need to Speak Out Against This Kind of Thing

[tucker301]

Guilty by association.
That's what animal rights groups and anti-hunters think when they look at this disgrace (http://news.fws.gov/NewsReleases/showNews.cfm?newsId=799CC638-0566-687B-7A5647D6471A953D) and then at us.

We, as sportsmen, need to do whatever we can to let the non-hunting world know that this kind of thing is just as wrong in our eyes as it is in anyone's.
In many ways, we should be even more outraged than PETA and other animal rights groups.
They see it as a means to their end... an opportunity to sell their product and gain more control over us.
We see it as a direct threat to the very things that we enjoy the most.

PLEASE. If anyone knows anything about this case, call it in, and let's make sure that anyone who'll listen to us understands that we are against the senseless and wastefull slaughter of game.

Sportsmen didn't do this, but we can do something about it.

thats just a bunch of crap. no matter what you are into there is always idiots that try to ruin it for everyone. it makes me sick when people kill wildlife just for the heck of it. these people are NOT sportsmen or hunters they are slobs. poachers are NOT hunters.

wow!
that ****ing pisses me off
screw the **** people that did that i shoud shoot them and ask them how it feels

[waterfowlhunter69145]

that is just ****ing disgusting with a hunt like that they should be proud to take that home not what they did with it

[Super Sport]

It sort of reminds me of the old west. The many buffalo sitting out in the plains rotting with only their tounges cut out. It's disturbing to see so much wasteful, senseless killing.

[Butch-M]

Did anyone say HOW they were "killed?" Before we blame ourselves or "hunters" do we know they weren't poisoned, netted or trapped & killed by somebody with a vendetta or sick of walking in goose guano? They only said "Hunters MAY have killed them."
