There goes her NFL career. Maybe she should have handcuffed and tazed it....that seems to be an ok thing to do.

Deer: "Don't taze me bro!"

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!

:lmao:

[Amber Lamps]

I think that this is another of those, It's a "cute" animal so it's not okay situations. If they old lady had killed a snake, rat, mole, or other less liked creature in her yard, no one would say shit. Why is a deer more precious than a mole? She could coat her lawn in mole poison and nothing would be said. Of course since I've hit three "horned rats" on motorcycles and my brother lost his football scholarship and almost lost a leg to a deer accident... I may be biased.:lol: Hell, I've killed two deer by hand myself, one with a baseball bat and one with a pick axe. FWIW, they were both injured and I was trying to "put them out of their misery.

I'm not saying what she did is okay but it always amazes me how people will be outraged about the death of one animal and condone the killing of another under the same basic circumstances. I mean one guy on here killed a snake in his garage and it was all, "Good for you dude" but someone kills a fawn and they are the devil.:idk: Hey we all put out rat traps and most of us would kill a bat without a second thought but a FAWN?!? Monstrous!:panic:

As usual, you're wrong. :lol:

What separates humans from most animals, is the ability to be humane. It's not so much the outcome of Grandma vs. Bambi, that would bother any decent person, but more so, the method in which Bambi was dispatched.

What I find ironic, is that many people would pay $39.95, for a fake plastic yard Bambi, yet when when crazy pants granny gets a real one for free, her first instinct is to slaughter it with a blunt instrument.

With that in mind, let's look at some of her options:

1. Name it Karl, and build it a guest room by the garage.

2. Take a picture of it for the grandkids, in the hope that the grandkids will stop sending letters that start: "Dear GrandaMa, Are you dead yet? Daddy says you can't be, because Vampires never die."

3. Yell, "SHOO!" in a calm, yet assertive voice.

4. Call animal control, or a neighbor who is reasonably accurate with a rifle.

5. Beat it to death with your dead husband Karl's, ex-favorite shovel.

Options one and five, are sure to get your picture in the paper, because either way, you're a fucking psycho.

Huh what? AMJ thinks that I am wrong? OMG, I may expire from surprise!:lol:

Nah Pops, I'm exactly right because you were one of the people praising the premeditated murder of a poor defenseless snake a few weeks ago. So if he finds a snake in his garage, it's okay to kill it but if it's something cute, well that's a different story. Well, see if you can agree with this, deer are responsible for more human deaths and injuries than any other animal in this country. It's not even close. As far as I'm concerned, Granny can go ahead and kill them all! Although, I would perfer she use a more "humane" weapon also... I forget, did they say how many strikes it took to kill the fawn? I mean if she got it in one, a rifle wouldn't be much better... just saying.:wink:

Norman Bates mother IS alive! Who'da thunk it?

What the old bitch should have done is just leave it the fuck alone. Go back in the house, brush Fido for a while and spread the hair around the garden.
Momma comes back, eats a few flowers and takes the kid away and doesn't bring it back where the dog hangs out. No harm, no foul.

Then if she wants to non-accidentally kill a deer, she can put on her orange hat, grab the old 45-70 Henry, a half pint of lickka and go deer hunting on opening day like everyone else.

The bitch is 75 years old, you think she "nailed it" like a Ninja assassin? :lol:

But you're right. The number of people killed every year, by baby deer hiding in flower beds, is truly cause for alarm.

If I do kill something, even if it's something I have an irrational fear of,(I'm looking at you, snake boy) I do it quickly, and without malice. Believe it or not, I actually take the time to consider how much suffering will be involved, and do my best to make sure it's as little as possible.

I agree with that whole-heartedly! I don't want anything to suffer more than necessary. Oh and baby deer grow up to become highway accidents. That same "aw isn't it cute" won't be so adorable when it crashes through your windshield and snaps your wife's neck! Again I don't agree with torturing the animal, I really don't, but what I'm saying is that if the old lady has a "right" to kill moles or snakes on her property, then she has a right to exterminate any animals on her property. Seriously, if she found a trespassing human in her yard and shot him, you'd be applauding her.:idk: Btw I appreciate the lack of name calling, thanks.:rockwoot:

:lol:

Yea I did, yea I did read some of them...:lol: Besides, it doesn't really matter, I think the old bat has a right to rid her yard of pests. If she considers a fawn a pest, then she has a right to exterminate it the same as she does a mole, a snake or anything else. :idk: I would prefer that she use a more humane method but... The way it sounds, I guess it would have been okay if she had shot it in the head in stead. I can agree with that.:rockwoot: What she really should have done, was wait for the mother to come back and shoot her too!:wink: Come on admit it, if she had killed something "nasty", no one would have a problem with that and you all know it.:lol:

Just gotta nit pick on one thing, I can see the deer and moles as pests but a snake is more of a help in the garden since it will eat some of the aforementioned pests, ok maybe not a fawn unless one of my critters gets loose :lol:

Hey, I'm always sticking up for GSXRs so I guess we all have our crosses to bear...:lol:

Btw whatever she does, she should make sure not to kill black snakes because they kill and eat venomous snakes!!!

Well Iown a gsxr too so I can feel your pain.

Actualy where she is if she kills a black or an indigo snake she will get in trouble since theyre on the endangered species list. I just dont know if they live that far north.

Grandma needs a kick in the azz for killing a scared little baby deer with a shovel.

"How about when it grows up and blah blah blah"...then shoot it. :idk:

All it would have taken was a phone call, to the local authorities and they could have addressed it, either by humanely euthanizing it, or removing it to a shelter to be released back into the wild.

I am of the party that thinks she should have gone running for the camera. I know I would have. But Im a tree hugger.

Incidentally, last time I saw a 6 foot rattler, I went running for my camera.

Last time I saw a pygmy rattler and a bobcat I was pissed I didnt have my camera.

Regardless of the creature, nothing deserves to suffer if someone feels the need to kill it. That was torture and needless. Its not like it was going to attack her. This is the same to me as killing ants with a magnifying glass.

Next time someone in the "kill it with fire" camp is readying to kill another creature, try taking a moment to ask yourself "what has this thing done to me or mine that it deserves to suffer and die"?

On a serious note, why run? This is the biggest thing that gets me about nature and people.

Obviously there are accidents in nature, and some person not paying attention steps on a snake that isnt paying attention and the person gets bit. And there are some animals that are much more aggressive than others, but how often (other than on "when animals attack") do you actually have an unwarranted attack by an animal?

Typically a person is engaging in some behavior that provokes the animal. Like runners that are attacked by cougars or bears. You are in THEIR territory, you are engaging in behavior typical of a prey animal (running) and most people are NOT paying attention to their surroundings.

In all my animal encounters, I move slowly and quietly, I dont provoke the animals and I have never had one flair up at me. I have surprised them and theyve run, but never in an attempt to cause me harm. I've seen big snakes, bobcats, bears, and a few others and I can simply sit and enjoy the chance to observe them outside the confines of bars at a zoo.

As for that big rattler. I saw him crossing the road, I stopped my car, grabbed the camera and slowly walked up behind him. He stopped, looked at me, and then sat and watched me while I watched him. He never coiled, or became agitated. At least not till my driver started jumping up and down hollering and upset him. *sigh*

I walk around my yard with a grill lighter and set Japanese beetles on fire. It's my favorite way to kill them. :wink: :lol:

I am a HUGE gardener. I would never kill a fawn. Hell a baby rabbit ate almost all my beans this year and he's still out there. Don't like deer in your garden? Well they make fences for that - they are light and portable.

Thank you, at least someones on my side :dthumb:

many snake bites are either people who walked too close or idiots like me picking them up.

Surprised the rattler was kinda mellow for a while, he may have been basking trying to warm up since many do go and sun themselves on the road and it doesnt always end well for them.

Exactly!! And on that note, if you screw with it, and get bit, its your own darn fault, NOT the animals!!

Well, that was partially the reason I immediately stopped the car...:wink: I also stopped all traffic if there had been any.

Why did he cross the road? Because I made sure he didnt get runned over. :lol:

It was a balmy Florida 90+ degrees, he was crossing, not basking. When he got agitated he quickly spun his head around at the person making a scene and then hightailed (literally) it into the woods.
