A cat for Gareth
My mate sent this in from yesterday’s efforts in field.
He suggested that Gareth should put up some prizes for dead cat photos.

Pheasants, Foxes and Night Vision
Found this great hunting video about the South of England. Well worth the time for those on holiday still.
The fox squealer and night vision part using them to knock down foxes is cool.
Pigeon-shooting fanatic Andy Crow is out on a spectacular south-of-England driven pheasant shoot, where he shoots his best bird of the season. He offers his tips for pheasant shooting and how to behave. Meanwhile, Roy Lupton is playing with a homemade night-vision kit. The parts only cost a few quid. He tries the DIY set-up on rats, rabbits and foxes.
When will they learn?
Once again in the US we have seen a school shooting tragedy.
A gunman has killed 27 people, including 18 children, at a US school, an official said, in what was one of the worst school shootings in the country’s history.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is under way.
State police, in their first hurried briefing, said only students and school staff were killed. Police also said the shooter was dead inside the school, and the scene was secure.
It is just awful for the families of those killed by a cowardly psychopath attacking unarmed children. But these situations are preventable.
When will they ever learn.
Predictably all sorts of people are now calling fro gun control without actually considering what they are calling for.
No one has stopped to consider that schools in the US that forbid guns on the campus are creating target rich environments without the remotest possiblity of a criminal having to consider any return fire. In Connecticut their state gun laws specifically forbid guns on any school property
It is unlawful to possess a firearm on public or private elementary or secondary school property. This prohibition shall not apply to a person with a firearm carrying permit, with permission from school officials, or while traversing school property with an unloaded firearm for the purpose of gaining access to lands open to hunting or for other lawful purposes, provided entry is not prohibited by school officials.
How did that creation of a gun free zone work out for the kids?
School administrators have constantly said that schools should be gun free zones so that children can be safe…and month after month we see the proof that their own version of gun control actually makes matters worse.
Children are safe when people have the means to protect them. Disarming them just makes them targets for criminals.
Analyse the stats…there has never been a mass killing at either a gun shop or a gun club shooting range. Why is that? Well mainly because if anyone tried it they’d be swiss cheese in micro-seconds…the chances of them actually getting to kill anyone is remote.
There is a reason that psychopaths go on sprees at schools and cinemas and the like….it is because the chances of someone shooting back are remote.
The answer isn’t more gun control…we have seen how that is working…the answer is less gun control.
Watch Obama miss the boat however and move against the 2nd Amendment.
F*ck off Hippy Scum
Hippy scum take one in the chook with some basic facts and figures:
Outside the context of the Olympics, even shooting using weapons that are still legal in Britain faces strong opposition. Animal-rights groups and environmentalists decry hunting and game shooting as inhumane and a threat to the country’s native fauna—even though some 2m hectares (5m acres) of countryside are actively managed for conservation in order to be suitable for shooting fieldsports, at a cost of £25m ($39m) a year. According to the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust, threatened bird species such as the skylark, lapwing and corn bunting are five times more common on land managed for shooting than they are elsewhere.
He could compete for Australia
Peter Wilson has won Britain’s first Olympic gold medal in shooting since Sydney 2000. With his comments afterwards he could easily qualify to compete for Australia:
And after an emotional celebration in which he hugged almost everyone in the arena stands, many of whom were wearing t-shirts decorated with the legend “Pigeon Wilson”, the new champion revealed how he intended to mark his moment at the summit of his sport.
“I’m going to get very, very drunk, probably do something stupid and have a lot of fun,” he said.
Drones for hunting? Ctd
If hunters don’t use them then wowsers, tree huggers and animal rights activists will…the problem they have though is hunter have guns, and drones don;t fly so well when multiple holes are blasted in them:
An animal rights group stopped a planned pigeon shoot over the weekend, leaving the would-be marksmen to shoot down another target: The animal group’s aerial drone.
A group called SHARK, SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness, went to Broxton Bridge Plantation near Ehrhardt, S.C., on Sunday to video a live pigeon shoot, according to the Times and Democrat of Orangeburg, S.C. The group lofted a small Mikrokopter drone and planned to tape the shoot. Law enforcement officers and an attorney tried to stop the drone from flying, according to the T&D. The group persisted, and apparently the shooters got back in their cars to leave, said Steve Hindi, president of SHARK.
The drone took off anyway, and then several shots rang out. One eventually struck the drone and it spiraled to the ground, to the dismay of the SHARK representatives who were filming it from the ground. The T&D has video of it here.

I bet he was wearing Proline dive boots
The Police are looking for the Tauranga shooter, he seems to have been particularly sneaky, there is probably a good chance he was wearing Proline dive boots:
Tauranga police are hunting for a person who shot a 43-year-old man through a glass door at a Tauranga home last night.
An unidentified person shot the man through a glass door at a Meander Drive home, in Welcome Bay, about 9pm last night, Detective Senior Sergeant Greg Turner said.
The man was taken to Tauranga Hospital with gun shot pellets in the head, but his injuries were not considered life threatening.
Police would like to hear from anyone who was in the area between 8pm and 9pm last night.
