505,
Nothing personal I don't know you well enough to care)-I just get tired of people assuming that because there is a fence around a property that it is a pen (That is actually the definition of a pen). I have hunted and operated ranches that had 10,000 acres in a pasture and in 500 acre pastures that were so thick in brush that you couldnt stick a knife in it. Both are true free range hunts (actually by definition, they are not). Hell- Africa is surrounded by water so they cant get away - no offence to those that put store by such but "Free Range" is a matter of degree. As long as it isnt a small enclousure then I reckon it is hunting.

by the way, that thing you offered me with your wife in Reno; I am not sure that would work out.

hell, Brad, at least he is not threatening to kill you like he did me and a few others on here- then denied he did that too. of course he is a trained killer and i haven't had a good night sleep since he threatened to squash me like a bug.

Post the entire PM you lying little sack of shit. You skipped the part that got you bitch slapped there and here.
I did not post the entire PM because it is just that A PERSONAL MESSAGE", since you obviously have the computer skills of an infant, let me tell you how I would limp through it. Highlight the entire post and hit ctrl-c, then when you start a new reply on this thread hit ctrl-v. If I were you, I would think long and hard before you react the way your emotions tell you to, the response will not be what you anticipate.

You did threaten to have your wife "break my hip" at Reno. Of course I'd pass on that opportunity.
You, on the other hand, I'd be interested in seeing that. What you are, in fact, is a whiner who would need his wife to keep him from getting slapped around.
I didn't threaten to have my wife do anything, I told you that you should ask her in person how you were in bed (since that is what you claim) and then I was going to enjoy watching her "break your hip".

Dollar, silly girl. If I had you wouldn't be talking. Could you please find that post and show the link here?

Two or three people have said that, and keep throwing it up. But nobody ever wants to show the entire thread, or even post it's whereabouts here. An actual threat never existed on here or anywhere else. If it had you would have tried to do something about it.

HERE'S YOUR CHANCE GIRLS CLUB: find the actual post and show a link.

It's a lie, and you are all liars. Can I challenge you any plainer? Cowards to boot, or you would post here that you are all coming to see me in Reno.
Rich, most everyone on this forum have watched you threaten violence and brag about violence done to other people, do you realize that all of your "lie" and "liar" assertions reflect directly on you? This is embarrassing, at least pretend like you are a man and have some pride.

Show me up, or stop whining...

regards,

Rich

So, if I posted pictures; will you then claim that they do not all look like they will score at least 350? Or will it be that I did not keep the racks with my tags on them? Or that I need to post closeups so you can make sure my name and the year are readable? I sell them to a gentleman who comes thru the valley every late fall and buys them for several dollars a pound. There's no pleasing a few of you. Save it for Reno, we can chat then and there.

This is like me asking one of you if you have any nude pictures of your wife. Then asking you if you want to buy some.

Pictures, heck I don't even have any pictures of my ex-wife.

As a disinterested bystander of this (meaning, I don't know any of you) and it is in a public forum I would like to make a comment on it. By way of background, I am a retired US Navy special warfare intel guy and have been teaching critical thinking and analysis to US, NATO, and partner nations for at least 15 years.

The one major critical error in this entire debate was when Rich made the throwaway comment from a PM about the wife. PM's, on any forum, are just that, private. I belong to several other forums on different subjects and commenting or publishing from a PM would (and should here as well) get you banned for a period. To continue to ask for a PM to be published is to compound the misjudgement. Poor form, old boy.

You have not insulted 505, you have insulted his wife. He should, by all accounts, just let his wife read this thread. If she met you at Reno and kicked you right square in the crotch, you would certainly deserve it, regardless of what you think 505, et. al., have said or done to annoy you. If you had said the same to me and my wife read it, oh boy. My six foot Maine lumberjack girl would have your guts for garters if she ever ran into you. She is now a Dr. but they would look lovely decorating her office.

Further, just on a matter of debate, 505 and jdollar have shown a firm grasp on the art of debate without resorting to general name calling and profanity. I'm not saying that they are necessarily correct, only that they say it better. I think Rich needs to come to some of my classes to learn the art of critical thinking and debate.

At this point the score would be:

Forty/love - 505/jdollar.

Well, it was a thread about oryx (fenced, penned, fair game or otherwise)....

My PM was remodeled to suit an agenda, but that was approved of by my fan club here.

We'll try it again. That offer you made to have your wife break my hip at Reno is hereby declined. I instead, request that you have her hold the camera while you attempt that feat yourself. No use dragging your wife into the discussion. like you did mine in the first line of your PM. That is why I want to post the rest of the PM. Apparently his comments were all in the spirit of good clean fun.

Rich

I love this thread...
