 Duck hunting protester shot in the faceQuote: A PROTESTER has been shot in the face just hours after the opening of the controversial duck hunting season this morning. Protester Julia Symons of Melburne suffered pellet injuries to her face, teeth and hand in a accidental shooting at Lake Buloke, 12km east of Donald in Victoria's west. Witnesses say Ms Symons, aged in her 20s, was waist-deep in water when she was shot by the hunter, believed to be aiming at a low-flying bird.

We hunt turkeys because we want to hear them gobble, watch them strut and all that, and we hunt them with shotguns because we want to be close to them when those things occur." - Jim Spencer |

Re: Duck hunting protester shot in the face Wow! Of course I don't condone anyone getting shot nor take any glory from such a situation, but honestly what was this person expecting? It's amazing what these "environmentalists" are doing these days. And the truth of the matter is, DU, Delta Waterfowl, and other such groups have done far more to provide good habitat for wildlife than any bunch of tree huggers clutching poster board signs ever have. It would be nice if the government would stop funding the organizations that are compromised of such idiots, but we all know that counting on the government to do anything is about as good as spitting into a bottomless bucket.
P.S. Sign me up for a 10 bird a day limit! |
