Harvest this!

Tina Nixon aka Busted Blonde aka Brunette posted the other day in support of heli-hunting.

She also said that hunting on foot, in thick bush was not really hunting but flying around in a chopper was somehow “sport”. Apparently hunters who hunt on foot are “bush assassins” and it isn’t a sport as the deer has “no comeback”. She clearly was just trying to get in a cheap shot. She obviously didn’t know that I carried out those two animals on my back after field dressing them, then butchered them and took them home for the freezer. Shooting deer is the easy part, getting the meat out is the tough part, unless you are a big girls blouse who slaughters deer from helicopters. Someone the size of her though wouldn’t know hard yacker if it bit her on her enormous padded trough-fed arse.

When she wrote that blog post she forgot to tell everyone that wehe was really shilling for her son’s current business which involves flying said heli-slaughterers around.

The second part of her post was doing a big skite about how many oily, greasy, disgusting mutton birds. She uses mutton-birding as an example of her food gathering prowess. According to Wikipedia:

In New Zealand, about 250,000 mutton birds are harvested for oils, food and fats each year by the native Māori. Young birds just about to fledge are collected from the burrows, plucked and often preserved in salt.

Its numbers have been declining in recent decades, and it is presently classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN. In 2009 the harvest reported record low catches, on average a trapping cage would yield nearly 500 birds, in 2009 the number was estimated to be closer to 40 per cage.

So, me killing 3 deer which are actual pests, and carrying them out myself, butchering them myself and filling the freezer for the family to enjoy the meat in the coming months is evil, but slaughtering 250,000 baby birds per annum in an unsustainable manner of a Threatened species is honourable food gathering.

This useless cow has no concept of what hunting actually is, but given her more than 1o0kg weight about the only thing she hunts is pies in Christchurch where she is currently enjoying a government funded job at the trough.

She of course must have forgotten her stupid anti-hunter post when she posted about her own little slaughter of defenseless sheep in the aid of her enormous Christmas feast on Facebook. If I am a “bush assassin” then she is a paddock assassin. Those sheep had no comeback, no escape, herded in by a fence. At least the deer I hunt have a chance to escape my clumsy stumbling about in the bush. Pretty embarrassing considering her “bush assassins” post.

Then to cap it all off there was an article today in the Herald about her beloved mutton birds being radio active.

There are fears radioactive muttonbirds could be on their way to New Zealand after the migrating birds were found to have been feeding close to Japan’s ruptured Fukushima nuclear plant.

Niwa scientists, who in 2005 attached tracking devices to 19 muttonbirds, also known as sooty shearwaters, found nearly half of them were spending months at a time feeding off the coast of Japan.

US researchers have requested samples of dead muttonbirds so they can be analysed, with the expectation that some of them will have absorbed the radioactive isotope Caesium-137, an element that strongly increases the chances of getting cancer.

It is bad enough that Maori are slaughtering the threatened species but now the poor buggers are radio-active because of the Fukushima accident.

Only the dumbest of part-time Wellington/Wairarapa troughers would use the slaughter of a Threatened species of oily fat birds, kind of like her, and the helicopter laziness of bombing up deer exhausted by running from modern technology as the epitome of hunting, harvesting or whatever adjective she chooses to use.

No wonder members of the bro-rocracy think she is a stupid loud-mouth, ungrateful, bludging, odious, three-faced bitch.

This is a woman who bludges off “mates”, never even thanks them for the efforts that they went to on her behalf, lies to the sponsor about the charitable status of the event then only puts out the prize when forced to more than 12 months after she won the prize. Then she even provided the booze to pinkos. I refused to go to the event, for two reasons. The first is that I won’t drink with pinkos the second is because Tina Nixon is a lying, three faced, bludger who craps on her mates.

I think Peter Dunne should look very closely at banning mutton-birding. In fact I’ll let my hunting pals in the Big Game Council know about what she thinks about hunters so they too can lobby for the banning of mutton-birding, it is threatened after all, it is the least they could do in the interests of conservation.

NFWAB. Especially a real blogger not some timid faux-maori scared of her own shadow.

    Goodness..strong words but I agree with the hunting sentiments.

    “Our father  - indeed most of our family have hunted for generations for food to feed their families. The aim is always to do the least damage to the meat to ensure the greatest amount of food for the family. 

    Head shots make heroes of hunters.”

    “They will pay huge money for trophy heads.  A good pilot will ensure even the worst shot will down his quarry.”

    These two lines from her article are contradictory

      Not only that, but she says “Ground hunters cannot guarantee to kill an animal quickly and cleanly.” Further up the page she links to a WO post where he describes his mate taking two deer with a single shot each in the space of 30 seconds. Somewhat contradictory! I’m thinking she’s not the sharpest pencil in the pack.

      Probably she’s never stalked deer from the ground either.

        Bit hard to stalk when you are built like a hippo like her.

    I wondered how long it would be before you responded to this one Whale.  I guess I am a paddock assassin as well because I kill sheep for the freezer.  Part of living in the country.  I am guessing that the shooter in the heli-hunting situation doesn’t even get any blood on them. Some lackey will dress and take care fo the game.

      I don;t have a problem with paddock assassins, just highlighting the inconsistency of the fat tart.

    I would be interested to know what sort of comeback  a Deer has against a heli borne hunter, a witty rejoinder perhaps?

      Flipping the proverbial perhaps?

        The proverbial muttonbird?

  • Honcho

    Heli hunters are the same sort of people who would go to the engravers and get themselves a trophey made.

    Dont get me wrong, Im not against the practice (read; not sport), but dont for a second think that its your average kiwi bloke whos into bush venison taking those opportunities up, because that couldnt be further from the truth.

  • Lofty

    I have hunted most of my life and still do on occassion as work allows.
    The average Kiwi bloke would not be able to afford to flip about in a machine to shoot a feed.
    Like Honcho I am not against the practice of heli hunting, but please BB don’t make it out to be anything other than a straight business practice, hunting does not figure.

  • Petal

    She had that coming.  Well done.  Karma.  Gotta love it.

  • Paul Rain

    While I have no desire to romanticize heli-hunting, it does bring in plenty of money. It does this a heck of a lot more efficiently than hosting the World Cup, and Dunne hates it. Good enough for me.

    That a species is Near Threatened means sweet fuck all.. it just needs to meet one of the five low criteria, which have low thresholds, for being ‘Vulnerable’. The government should be selling licenses to harvest muttonbirds to render em down and sell fishy-bird oil to stupid hippies.

    Does anyone here actually eat Mutton Birds? Yeuch…they are hideous. The only place I knew you could get them was off the bottom of the South Island – is that what she’s talking about? I didn’t even know they made oil or anything else out of them – just ate them like they were going out of fashion.
