Dear Uncle Joe,
I hope you (expletive deleted) hit a deer on the
road and it flies through your window and totals your car. would
you rather have a deer hunted for food or have more deer and
other animals die from getting hit by cars? you stupid (expletive
deleted) liberals need to take up tree planting if you are worried
about animals. dont email me back and say " i hope you change
your mind " because I will never. I love hunting and I hope
to pass it on to many generations to come. Why don’t you just
go (whole string of expletives deleted) !

Dear Bubba:
Thanks for teaching me a few new words that I can
add to my vocabulary. Your mother must be very proud of you.
It may pain you to hear this, but deer/car collisions
are the result of liberal hunting seasons and bag limits.
Here are a few facts for you:
In 2001, the Erie Insurance Company had 384 deer
claims on opening day and the first Saturday of Pennsylvania's
hunting season. Why? That's because deer were being chased and
driven into roads by you hunters.
The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration
reports that most car/deer collisions happen during hunting season.
Again, this is the case because deer are scared out of their
wits by you Neanderthals in the woods and they dart out into
traffic.
A spokesman for the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection said, "The presence of hunters in the woods puts
animals, including deer and bear, on the run and often causes
them to leave wooded areas." (Trenton Times, 12/8/98)
Deer can be safely and humanely kept away from
roads. Reflectors installed on the sides of roads can scare deer
away from dangerous areas. The Strieter-Lite reflector has been
tested for years and has been proven to reduce car/deer collisions
from 60% to 100%.
Planting trees is always a good idea. Instead of
killing animals, do something positive for the animals and the
land they live on: plant some trees! When you're done, you can
wash your mouth out with soap (cruelty-free soap, that is).
Peace,
Uncle Joe
