![]() AMERICA'S HUNTERS Pretty Amazing! A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and arrived at a striking conclusion: There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin... Allow me to restate that number: 600,000! Over the last several months, Wisconsin 's hunters became the 8th largest army in the world. (That's more men under arms than in Iran. More than France and Germany combined.) These men, deployed to the woods of a single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt with firearms, And NO ONE WAS KILLED. That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania's and Michigan's 700,000 hunters, ALL OF WHOM HAVE RETURNED HOME SAFELY. Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia, and it literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world. And then add in the total number of hunters in the other 46 states. It's millions more. ________ The point? ________ America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower! Hunting... it's not just a way to fill the freezer. It's also a matter of national security. That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed. Food for thought, when next we consider gun control. Overall it's true, so if we disregard some assumptions that hunters don't possess the same skills as soldiers, the question would still remain... What army of 2 million would want to face 30 million, 40 million, or 50 million armed citizens??? For the sake of our freedom, don't ever allow gun control or confiscation of guns. [This was sent by a friend. When you add in the gun nut in southern Maryland, this country gets pretty well protected.] |

Y'all are a trip, Johnny.
It's one thing to prowl around the woods blasting Bambi, Thumper or even squirrels but quite another to have some well armed army shooting back at y'all. |

Is Herring prowling around the woods again? I hope the decent critters have been warned. Or is he heading off to Syria? These gun nutsie assholes think they're like those kids in that turkey of a movie, Red Dawn. But, instead of being Wolverines, they're Field Mice. |

Been there, done that. Have you? Look at the damage a few poorly armed Afghans did to the Soviets. Or what some poorly armed ISIS are doing around the world. Get your head out of your ass. |

I am right in the middle of that culture here in northern Michigan. Lots of hunters here |

Hey JohnnyMop...y'all told us right here in this group that you commanded an artillery unit 20 miles from any danger...unless you call doubles at the Officer's Mess as dangerous. |

I never commanded an artillery unit and never said I did. As an officer I was a Combat Engineer. Get your head out of your ass. |

I never commanded an artillery unit and never said I did. As an officer I was a Combat Engineer. Get your head out of your ass. Since few artillery guns have that kind of range, that wouldn't make much sense anyway. Besides, if you're in range to reach out and touch someone with arty, that means you can be touched as well. You're definitely not out of harm's way. |
