I'm not sure where to go with this one yet. Perhaps a lawyer might be a good idea to contact but I'm not in any financial situation to pay for one. And I'm still unsure about GoFundMe and donations as of yet.

I'll think over it but I think it's worth just going through with a mental checkup as they ask and hoping they respond back to a letter I sent to them a month ago. I don't want to become a center of attention.

Oh, and they did have a minor attack at my personal facebook page (which I've cleared out since and keep mostly private.) This was what they determined to be someone saying I was 'Obsessed' with guns. How mind you, is beyond me. Police being police, having a sense of humor is not in the code book.

And I had one picture from late 2016 where I posed with a shotgun. They spit the dummy over that too.

I have seen much worse even on this site there are some pics that go could be considered well beyond the line of good taste. I refer to the ones where animals have been shot and the photo is of a gory and graphic nature. To a hunter and someone that butchers their own the blood and gore is a normal but to a first timer it could have a very shocking impact.



What else is one to expect? A forum where people take and post pictures of their hunted game isn't going to be all pretty pretty.

We dont have to post pictures that show half the head missing and the brains lying next to it. If you need / want to post a picture of that kill move the brains out of shot place the animal in a position that minimizes the gruesome or shock horror part. As a group of hunters we don't want to labeled and thought of as sadistic killers. The label we are looking for is humane harvester of meat and humane vermin control.


Gruesome photos are very important when determining what projectiles are sutible.
Expansion rates, energy transfer, fragmentation, penetration ... it's all very important stuff.
Gun control requires concentration and a steady hand
