LOL, I finally got to meet a real live one. (CBB's)

[Die Judicii]

Hardly a day goes by without hearing or reading about a greenie up to antics of some sort.
Usually with weird or ridiculous views and beliefs.
Well I finally got to meet a "real live one" today.

A woman was walking past my ute and read the sign relating to feral pest management (dogs in particular) and she said to me that the shooting
of the wild dogs was cruel and inhumane.

So I replied to her and said "No lady,,,, far from it,, not the way I do it", and I went on to say that most dog shooters use ordinary bullets but I don't.

That raised her curiosity and she asked me what I use instead.

I explained that instead of ordinary bullets, I use real special ones called "CBB's" which are bullets that have points of cotton wool (a bit like a cotton bud) that soften the impact so that it doesnt hurt them so much.

Fully expecting a tirade of abuse from her, I was shocked when she looked at me and said "Ohhhh,, that's so good, you are a nice man".

I guess they really do live amongst us.

Yep. They do.
Cotton tipped bullets.
Good one.
Johnson and Johnson do a box of 20 for $9.95.

What a shame you can't be there when the penny drops, or should I say, IF the penny drops.

FMD ! YOU'VE MADE MY DAY MATE !

Mate, you've always been good at telling jokes. For a minute, I really almost believed that!
It's gotta be impossible that people that deficient really live amongst us, and influence opinion. And vote.

A woman who worked for me thought air rifles just fired air. And nothing else...
Uh, huh...so a small lump 0.177 wide of air will knock over a tin can at 50 m, because there's no way air will dissipate....unlike the monstrous Weapon of Mass Destruction known as a leaf blower, those things ought to be banned.

Another joke. You blokes are on fire.

[Die Judicii]

Unfortunately for us all,, I was NOT joking. And for your benefit Wapiti,, she must live much closer to you than me. I believe she lives somewhere between Stanthorpe and Texas.

AND cotton tipped projectiles (and nitrocellulose gumpowder) are PLANT BASED!
