Reminds me of my uber wealthy, tree-hugging, anti hunting, "animal rights" (quotes for a reason) loving cousin who constantly looks down her nose at anyone who's ever killed anything....or even drives a pickup for that matter....like they're the underclass. Her wedding a couple of summers ago was awesome though. They served a smorgasbord of prime rib, pulled pork and bacon-wrapped quail.
The quail was the bomb. Of course after congratulating her on the nuptials, I thanked her for her choice of a menu.

I hate the word harvest. Unless it's being used by a farmer about his crops. It has no place in hunting dialogue. Exactly. To be ashamed of the word "kill" is to be ashamed of what we do. I'm not saying I prefer the word harvest over kill, but it's still an acceptable use of the word harvest, going by the definition.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning.

Y'all did read the link right? This was about a paid ad with a dead animal. We can post all the stuff we shoot just fine there with no issue. It is their choice what paid ads show. That was all this was about. Guess they don't want their algorithm to show it to some sensitive type.

TPWD has you fill out Harvest Logs or Data on deer killed on MLD properties.

I read somewhere that some researcher predicts that Facebook will lose 80% of it's users by 2017. I believe it. I've never even opened an account. It just didn't appeal to me. if its not facebook it will be something similar, teenagers and most women CAN NOT function without social media. Says the man with 5800 posts on a social media site.
Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

Great read, thanks for sharing.
This is what happens when men cease to be men. Traditional beings are forced to defend their values, their culture, and their heritage. Factions of man should let other factions live as they please and to live freely themselves. Only within a faction must judgement and critique be found.

My cousins post dead hog and deer and predator photos constantly without any issues from FB. he probably has his security setting set up pretty tight. Maybe they fall under the "East TX" exception. That's like FB Rivercrest, the monitoring authorities don't care what goes on and are a little scared to check it. Lol

That's fine with me, I'm just pointing out the definition of the word harvest. Doesn't seem like something to split hairs over when the definition is readily available.

Harvest implies the animal was killed to provide a meal, rather than just killed like a rat as a nuisance. So I can see why someone who shoots a deer deer mostly for its antlers might take offense with the word "harvest". Personally, I like to say that I harvest or "take" deer and kill fire ants.

So I get to be the one to point out the comparison/analogy to NP?
Whut, y'all afraid?
NP, you draw the line at hunters yielding to social pressure and apologizing for hunting, adjusting their behavior and language to keep other hunters and the public from "looking down/forming a bad opinion" of us.
And then, you lose your own mind over hunters who won't give up their chosen methods to meet your and other anti HF hunters and the publics need to "clean up" hunting.
Now, I know you'll deny the analogy, but it's pretty obvious to most.
Back on topic, I also find it funny that some folks here are going nuts over one form of social media, while using a similar one..

One topic regards apologizing for hunting itself, while the other regards a discussion about what is hunting and what is not. In both cases I am defending hunting. And I am not alone - which begs the question as to why you constantly call/single me out other than just to start a fuss. It is true I draw the lines differently than you. Actually,from reading your posts,it seems that you have no lines. You hate game wardens/laws, love any method as long as an animal dies, bait quail with corn and skillet shoot them on the ground, etc.,etc.,etc. I guess life is easy when you have no lines, but IMO easy is not always best.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

I choose to HUNT quail and other animals in HFs legally. You would deny me that privilege. So yes, the analogy isn't perfect. You are opposed to somebody merely apologizing for killing animals the way you do, yet you would totally deny others their chosen legal method of hunting if it doesn't pass your muster. The analogy isn't perfect because your views are much more dogmatic.
