    Thread fork, was Idaho's Definition

    This is why I say "you just don't get it". It's not about "more days in the woods". That's the in-line hunters agenda. It's about the original intent of the season. It's not about more deer or more anything. A forum will mirror the people of the forum, nothing more and that's the reality of...

    Thread fork, was Idaho's Definition

    It's obvious that he's read the other threads that go into great detail as to why some people eant to ban the inlines. To ask the quesiton again does nothing but start the debate all over again. Some of are sick of it! You can;t get half way through a thread now that someone doesn't bring it up...

    Thread fork, was Idaho's Definition

    I've been following this and stayed out of it, but... Nothing personal, but why get involved in this? No one is asking you to "work up" anything. You may choose to stay out of the debate altogether as that is your right. Don't worry about it of it doesn't interest you. "us"? Obviously not...

    Are Muzzleloader's Weapons?

    Yes, I think they are on to something! If I don't call my Cessna an "aircraft", I won't need a pilots license. :crackup: :shake: Let's see, I'll call it a "gravity counter-acting machine". Yeah, that's it!

    Are Muzzleloader's Weapons?

    I'm not attacking you personally. I had to click on someone to reply to and you made a statement worthy of a reply. I'm addressing your comments, not you as a person. In a debate, we address the comments and ideas put forth. That's what we are doing. To answer your question, I agree with...

    Are Muzzleloader's Weapons?

    With all due respect, to say that a gun is not a weapon because you only kill animals with it is ludicrous. By playing this game of semantics, you're actually provided ammunition for the anti-gun crowd. They'll get a big kick out of quoting us... "My gun is not a weapon because it only kills...

    Are Muzzleloader's Weapons?

    if the anti-gun crowd is reading this, they must be laughing their asses off. Is my gun a weapon? Is my weapon a gun? If it falls over in the forest and goes off, but nobody heard it, is it still a weapon? :crackup: If you use your muzzleloader in a crime, you'll find out real fast what it is...

    Defining types of muzzleloaders??

    Flintlocks became more popular than Matchlocks, Percussion replaced the Flintlock, cartridge guns replaced the percussion cap, repeating arms replaced the single shot, etc,, etc., etc. Better design always becomes more "popular". What do you mean by design? (see above answer) "Design" and...

    The best book on Indian beading?

    It's hard to keep up, as terms do change over time. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is squaw a bad word? The etymology is perfectly innocent (see below).

    You just can't resist getting in your jab about "Traditional" vs "Modern" can you. :shake:

    Conflicting views on baiting

    You left out the part where the "guide" (the guy who led him to the blind) congratulates the "hunter" for a GREAT SHOT! The hunter then thanks the guide for the greatest hunting experience he's ever had. It's more like having the local butcher point out a good steak in the cold case than it is...

    Not my gun

    Actually, if you noticed, my post was not in reply to you, but obviouly you took it personally.That's understandable, as you post or at least start most of the funny picture things. My comment was trying to point out that if people are tuning in here for information, it can be very difficult to...

    Not my gun

    Is it just me or does it seem like every friggin' post gets answered by a funny picture? Should there be some level of seriousness affored the new posters? The guy posts a photo, and not one of the 13 replies has anything to do with the original photo or it's content. Is this the Comedy Club...

    Elk hunting

    I guess this is another point we can agree to disagree on. :winking:

    Coning the muzzle

    You guys are great. It's rare that anyone apologizes on a board. :applause: I didn't mean to jump on you guys either. It's just that this board has been the most polite place I've ever seen and I may have overreacted to your statements as well.

    Coning the muzzle

    Can't you and Deadeye disagree with Ghost without being rude. If you disagree with someone, why bother to comment if you don't have anything constructive to say? It offers nothing of value and doesn't add to your credibility.
