Point and Shoot _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorius triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. - Theodore Roosevelt | |||

Now, how do we force every bunny hugger to read that article ? Very well written. Frederik Cocquyt I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good. | |||

During the British run to ban centrefire handguns under John Major and then rimfires under Tony Blair and during Clinton's so-called "Assault Weapon Baan" the jokers at The Economist argued that no private citizen anywhere in the world had the right to own a gun. At the time I sent them an e-mail asking them if anyone in the magazine had as much as run a greengrocer's business when they took it upon themselves to instruct the world on how its affairs should be run. So, it is no guns and let's promote hunting. Yeah! The gang of idiots who form The Economist's editorial board have never dropped their anti gun ownership stand, so they must suggest some kind of modified pig-sticking technique on rhino, hippo, elephant, cape buffalo and lion.

Mehul, you are absolutely right. This piece, when juxtaposed with the magazine's stance on firearms ownership, constitutes editorial schizophrenia. This half of their editorial mind must be the sane one. They have certainly got it right with respect to the hunting issue. Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||
