Where I grew up pigeon shoots were common. We raised pigeons and ate squab regularly enough, and had our own pigeon shoots. As a kid, it was a treat.

Hunting means killing.

Chuck Norris doesn't hunt

I agree though, animal cruelty is terrible and the people who do it deserve a taste of their own medicine.

I think the gentlemen at the range should have changed the birdshot out for rifled slugs as that would certainly have put a few holes in the SS Guppie.

As far as cruelty goes.....I would never do that. I would not target shoot live animals ever unless there was an overpopulation issue.

That guy in the boat has made some really shocking videos. There is a video of him as the victim of a hit and run by a hunter he was trying to film. The backward cops did not even charge the driver. That country is a perfect example of a good old boy network if I ever saw one.

What a bad place to put a gun range. Yeah the guy went out there on purpose, but the lookouts should have called a cease fire.

That guy sounds like Dan Akroyd.

He anchors offshore in attempts to stop legal target shooting. He would fucking sue the club if injured by a pellet even though he purposely anchored in the line of fire.

Fuck him. I was hoping the boat capsized or that dude with the 12ga opened up on em!

It's still killing. In wildlife hunting animals get away shot fairly often, and die on their own. One tries hard to prevent it, but it happens anyway.

I wouldn't go out of my way to do a pigeon shoot these days, but it doesn't horrify me. We do far worse to our captive animals than target shoot them, on a daily basis.

I personaly find pretend hunting "preserves" used by rich assholes more offensive then pigeon shoots, which don't pretend to be anything but what they are. In the hunting resorts, caged farm-raised quail and pheasants are released in a pretense of wildlife hunting, carefully arranged so that the rich guys can pretend to shoot them like real wild animals.

Now that's fucking creepy.

Who puts a gun range on a river where people can boat? Seems like a stupid setup, perhaps we aren't getting the full story.

only because there are lots of idiotic hunters. I have shot and killed hundreds of animals, never purely for fun and never has one "escaped" for long. Granted it does happen but i would say it's pretty rare

One hopes it's rare, but you can't be sure, especially wing shooting. One pellet in the body at long range and the pheasant is still going to fly away and die slowly - and unlike a deer you can't be reasonably sure you can track it and finish it.

And I have come across several dead deer in the woods, wounded and not tracked down, dead hours or days later from the wound, so I know that there are idiotic hunters.

I shot one deer that had it's leg nearly shot off by someone else. They never walked up and claimed it. I would just as soon not taken it because it was a spike buck, but I couldn't let it suffer.

The point being, pigeon shoots may seem cruel, but we do crueler things, and more horrible things happen on this planet a hundred thousand times a day.

I think it's kinda sweet that guy was trying to stop a bunch of rich folks having a pigeon shoot. I don't see much point in having some big shots paying $500 to shoot birds somebody else raised. But I've participated in rural pigeon shoots when I was a kid and a young man, it's not a girls sport, no, but it's good training for wing shooting.
