An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.

Understandable. That's why we tend to avoid Hondas and other such disposable cars around here.

Yup. If your vehicle ain't running after the "hunt" is over, the meat will spoil before you get it home. Hell, I wouldn't take even take a Honda out for Rabbits :roll:

When my friend Jack moved to NH from PA many years ago his Ford pickup had this huge bumper on it. Since it was a 2wd I asked him what it was for. He said "Between the deer and driving on the Ho Chi Minh Trail a guy's gotta have some protection!" I forget what highway he called the HCMT, but it sounded deadly. Somewhere near NJ.

And a not sober driver! I thought I and backed into a tree. Only when I got out to check for damage did I see the fur on the road, and the deer stumbling towards the woods.

Didn't get to eat that one :(
