irony, kentucky style
I just saw a flyer in the butcher shop next to where I work. It had been put up by some hunters and was protesting a bill before the Kentucky senate that would allow out of state deer to be introduced to the Kentucky eco system, without the consent of the Kentucky Wildlife Commision (that was the gist, more or less, I think). Apparently this increases the risk of some kind of deer disease that kills a lot of deers anually. Deer AIDS or Deer syphillus or something.
Now, I don't have much of an opinion on hunting, pro or con. It's not something I really want to do or think I would enjoy, but I have lots of friends and family who like it and do it quite often.
Regardless of where you fall on the issue, though, you have to admit there's some pretty serious unintentional comedy arising from a bunch of hunters trying to save the lives of deers so they can just kill them, themselves later.
I'm just worried that all the out of state deer will come in and take all the jobs of the local deer. Also, is anyone watching the boarders to ensure that we don't have any deer entering the state illegally?
You know, this is exactly what I didn't want to see happen with this post. I bring up something mocking hunters and you bigots turn it into a conversation about how you'd love to see some deers get hasseled by the cops and a bunch of "protect our borders" talk.
Deerphobes.
I do believe "deerphobes" is being used an inclusive term aquaman, so we should all be careful.
But for the record, let it be stated that I love out of state deer. I've even dated deer from out of state. It's impossible for me be a deerphobe.
Just cause you're an antler-chaser, that doesn't mean you're not a deerphobe.
yeah, and some of my best friends are deer.
but i wouldn't let my daughter date one. it wouldn't be right.
This entire thread has set human/biped relations back 60 years.
I'm rallying to get a million deer to come with me and march through the streets of our nation's capital. We're going to call it, The Four Million Hoof March! (Elk are welcomed to attend, but not allowed to march.)
