It is the same impulse that makes some people catch and eat Octopus, another marvel of nature. And more threatened than birds that can be bred and released.

I don't catch or eat Octopus; I hate the taste and smell of fish. Now shut up Nikitas and admit that you're a horkatos barbarian! :lol:

YOu dont eat fish, I am betting you are also a vegetarian?

In Greece they criticize me for taking up a sport associated with royalty, which makes me a peti bourgeois, in Cyprus I am a horkatos (peasant). YOu antis gotta make up your minds!

Professor Louis Leaky the anthropologist said that we owe our humanity to the fact that we evolved as hunters. Professor of Psychiatry Liakos says that once you analyse human nature you should be more suspicious of non hunters rather than hunters.

Who do I belive then, Leaky, Liakos or GR? Some problem huh!

Just a small addendum for GR-

Shakespeare, Verdi, Hemingway, Gromyko, and many other great minds were hunters. By the way so is the current president of the Hellenic Republic, Carolos Papoulias. For a horkatos I am in rather good company wouldn't you say?

Remind those professors that some 10,000 years of time has passed from the days of hunters & gatherers and humans have since EVOLVED into bigger and better things like the McDonald's mutant chicken factory!

As Nikitas says, why do people make such a fuss out of a minor being injured hunting yet ignore those killed on the roads every day…


well that is because hunting can be avoided and not necessary at all.

Professional hunters wear flourescent jackets ovet there "Now you see me now you don't " kit! Also correct safety wiith a shotgun is to keep it broken until just before use.
