Over abundance of Deer in Wisconsin?
24 Jan 2006What do you do when (heaven forbid) you have an over abundance of wildlife in a state?
Why, you lower the legal hunting age!
I guess all the 12 year olds in Wisconsin had younger brothers with itch trigger fingers that just couldn’t wait to get out into the woods. Well they now can, the age restriction has been lowered to 8 years old.
I think that when I was 8, I was probably playing Comander Keen and the closest I came to a gun was Castle Wolfenstein or perhaps Doom I. The critics fear that an 8 year old’s motor skills aren’t developed enough to handle a gun. My question is, have you seen an eight year old do anything coordinated? and just what type of gun are you going to give to someone like that?
Why *play *deer hunter when you can go out back and shoot yourself a 5 point for real!
