    Would I shoot a fawn?......never really thought about it. I have drawn my bow and aimed at them just for practice. But never let the arrow go. So I guess the answer is no.

    Never will shoot a fawn or a doe with fawns. Theres not enough deer around here and its unethical in my family. I wish some of my neighbors with bait piles out their back doors felt the same... All im going to say is 23 deer in one year. Not just talking about hunting season January 1st on through to December 31st.

    Legal does not = unethical. There is a difference. Now if they are shooting/poaching deer year round I would be calling my local CO

    I've never even considered killing a fawn with my bow...I just watch em

    I'm not saying there is anything wrong with doing so...it's just not something I care to do

    Here is your quote on Sept 11 in the topic of "Carbon....Hip or hype?" :
    "Please people ... don't bite on this topic AGAIN!!!!!:violin:! " For some reason, you felt it appropriate to insert this right in the middle of responses that I was getting and opinions that I considered valuable as if no one else's responses were of any value nor was my personal interest in the topic.
    Seems pretty cut and dry to me. If that was not intented as a topic killer, then I am not sure what you meant. Maybe your would like to elaborate. I dont see how your comment could have misconstrued. but, then as you stated, I am new here.............Let's see you deny it now.

    Listen .... I am not saying I didn't say that ... so the quote was unnecessary .. I am saying I have ZERO ability to affect people from responding on an internet forum .... the reason it didn't get much traffic is that it is the most played out topic on the forums these days .... I realize that you probably didn't know that and I didn't look to even see who posted it ... I was responding JUST to the question .... I apologize for offending you ... rest assured, I did NOT affect anyone from posting those ... I am sorry I typed it.

    There are a few problems with your response:
    Actually, you did engage in what we call an indirect denial. so, yes. you DID try to deny saying it.
    Then you tried to divert attention off of yourself by pointing at me with "You are new here...."
    Then, you say you were just addressing the question, but in reality you were addressing anyone watching the topic or you would not have used the word "people".

    Also, just a tip...when a person responds to an allegation with laughter they are guilty 96% of the time. I will drop this topic for now. You did what you did. Hiding behind semantics will not change anything....I feel bad for you.

    "I encouraged people to not respond??????? LOL I suppressed their thoughts???? lol... you ARE new here :busted: "

    You are so transparent, ....you have my apology .. I did it in public and private .... but you still are looking to one up me .... dude ,,,it's JUST a forum on the internet ... it's OK ... breathe ... if someone on the internet can suppress your freedoms, which must be the case as you have claimed I have done with others, then the problem lies with you ....and if yours can't, then it must be all the simple minds on this sitr that can ...again, according to YOU..
