    and I'm getting a little burned out on your self-rightous look at me bullshit and the hay look at Godfather. he's a bad guy, you yourself have issues to fix in your own life so why don't you take care of you before you try and tell the world what meanie I am :lol: it's a big world out there chad and I clearly see it different than you in some respects and maybe the same in others but I don't need to attack you to show everybody what a wonderful guy I am but if it makes you sleep better at night then I am glad I have done my part in my own little indirect way to make you feel better about yourself ;) enjoy your sunday.

    easy does it big guy. facts are facts, that is all & nothing more. all i do is read posts and react on them. this might mean that i respond. it might mean that i type up nothing. on here (this message board) we trade & toss around ideas, plans, thoughts logical or illogical & we debate.

    many here other than myself store in our memory files fellow 10c members' behaviors, views, beliefs & such things. many of y'all are embedded forever in my mind.

    supporting ted nugent and the like on their murderous rampages on bear, wolf, elephant, rhinoceros & other majestic beasts and rubbing it in my face for one's own shits & giggles is one definite way of getting under my skin

    I think 'guiding' the shark away from the beach waters might be a little more difficult than you think.

    Crew members of the USS Indianapolis might beg to differ with your assertion that sharks do not snack on or enjoy people.

    That 'nibble' you speak of has a devastating effect on human tissue.

    I still want to think that this policy will not lead to wanton shark killings. And although I disagree with the policy, I understand its rationale. I agree that it would be better to instate more spotters, clear the beaches and allow time for any rogue shark to get back to deep waters.

    But again, what if the shark refuses to leave? Realistically, whether right or wrong, I don't think it's within our capacity to abandon beaches because a shark or sharks have taken residency there.


    the sharks that fed on the crew of the indianapolis were oceanic white tips. they are opportunistic feeders and according to eyewitnesses fed on the dead tho they did nibble on a few live sailors.

    and yes a nibble from a shark can be devastating but thats still all it is...a nibble. if it were otherwise victims would have zero chance.

    please take him & leave him in the far outback perhaps? ;)

    i am very sorry uncle ted lives here. haha. i want him to live somewhere far away and without his guns, ammo, and other killing tools. we could ship the fucker to a distant planet beings nasa is getting better and better at traveling into deep space. sad fact is he'd then kill aliens and gigantic worms living inside deep huge craters ;)

    fare enough my friend.
    about Ted...I don't support his hunting but I am guilty of supporting his music(the guy rocks!) but if he invited me on a hunting trip I couldn't go..killing animals unless I needed to eat just aint my thing but if he wants to do it (and he eats what he kills btw "kill it and grill it") that's his business,if I aprove or not will not change his mind but this is a thread about killing sharks to protect swimmers not Ted's hunting and as far as I know he's not a shark fisherman.
    I have a weird draw to the ocean I can't explane but I support ocean drilling....weird aint it :shock: I believe that there is no such thing as too much money spent on enviromental protection while drilling and untill we have a new form of energy without fossil fules we have to di it...it's a double edge sword.
    I also believe in the end that we will pay for the damage we've done to the earth and we are all guilty for supporting its distruction in even the smallest ways,my big thing that really bothers me is plastic bag's...I know it seems small but but those dang things end up in our land and oceans and in huge piles and they are killing animals and fish alike and we don't need em...paper ..recycled paper bags make a much smaller foot print on the earth, I know that there are many things we can do and many other things that make bad impact on our planet but I picked plastics :lol: ...I know they also require oil or fossil fules as well to manufacture, it seems to be a vicous circle.
    and by the way all is forgiven as far as I am concerned..grudges are just too much needlessly spent energy especially for a few words,be well my friend.

    But going to another country and killing there inocent people is ok right? Just as long as they're Muslim....
    Killing ANY LIVING thing, human or animal is bullshit. But I find it funny/sad that you're ok with killing Muslims but not ok with killing sharks. You're thought process is intriguing to say the least. But I better watch what I say so I dnt get suspended from this forum again.

    Let me reiterate again, killing sharks or any living thing is NOT OK.

    where you picked on in school as a child ?

    Godfather.

    From reading your posts, it seems to me that YOU ARE that child being picked on.......or maybe lost a gf to a Muslim, mite explain some of your hatred towards them.....dude, you're a fraud.

    we have guns... just not an overabundance of unnecessary guns. which correlates very nicely with our extremely low death rate from shootings. 8-)

  • I find it sickening that we as a species tend to destroy an animal that is well within its right to be where it is, its own habitat, because it's getting in the way of our recreation.

    does anyone not see how sick that is? killing other beings so we can have fun in the sun?

    i see it as very sad and unnecessary that this action needs to be taken. great whites travel vast distances on their treks. one had even been tracked crossing the indian ocean from sth africa to australia. nicole as she is known was then sighted back in sth african waters. thats a hell of a journey.

    I hear ya. We are the ones that are supposed to be the reasoning animal on this equation.
    ...
    Of course, if the sharks came onto land and tried to bite me while I'm watching T.V. in my living room... well, then I would be all for going after the bastards. But, they don't... so let them be sharks and do what sharks do. We should be the ones be on the lookout when we go into their homes.
