Hunting

He’s the poster boy for bogans, sporting a mullet that would make Warwick Capper blush and has a wife who obviously shares the same hair stylist; however I’d wager there are a lot of guys and girls out there who would love to have Dog the Bounty Hunter’s job.

Business in the front, party in the back. Pic: Supplied.

Kitting out in tactical gear; kicking down doors; dragging bail-jumpers back to prison all for a hefty fee – sure beats sitting at a desk staring at white walls all day.

Dog the Bounty Hunter could also provide the solution to NSW and potentially Australia’s rural pest problem.

    You want to let a bunch of gun-toting maniacs and bogans loose to cull feral animal populations, presumably without causing any collateral damage?  And you want to actually pay them taxpayer’s money to do it? Who, exactly, is living in the political fantasy world here? Read more »

 

Last week The Punch published this piece which is critical of Federal MP Bob Katter and his financial backers, who had been photographed posing with ‘extinct in the wild’ and exotic animals, including a giraffe. This is a response to that article.

My name is Keith Drain, I am a hunter and shooter, I run www.huntandshoot.com.au, a hunting and shooting news website. I am 27 years old, I have a beautiful wife and I work as a manager at a cinema. If you met me you’d think I was a regular guy - that’s because I am.

Like many others, I was introduced to shooting and fishing by my Dad. Hunting to me is an enjoyable and rewarding pastime. I get to go out and do what I love doing, I get to provide meat for my family and my dogs and I get to help the environment by ridding the land of feral and introduced species, which to me is very important.  I have no shame in owning firearms or hunting.

Federal MP Bob Katter is a throw-back nutjob bunker-mentality troglodyte. Well, we’ve known that for a while. But this just in: His close associates and financial backers are gun-toting redneck heartless bastards with a slimy influence on politics.

Today’s Australian unravels the ties between Katter’s backers and the gun lobby.  Including trophy pics of the financial powers behind Katter’s Australian Party with the exotic animals they’ve shot. Including a rare scimitar-horned oryx – officially extinct in the wild – and there’s also the above picture of David Auger, another financial backer, posing with a dead giraffe which, according to The Oz, he has shot.

What kind of fuckwit shoots a giraffe? Or a hippo?

    Why did you have to make all the redneck comments and also why so much profanity? - we don’t even have the “yee-haw Southern Baptist hidey-hole” types that you describe in your article in this country.  Regardless of whether you believe your points are valid or not, your credibility is… Read more »
