I grew up in far northern Minnesota (100 miles N of Duluth, almost 250 miles N of the Twin Cities) in the country (well, thats really about all there is up there).

I had access to guns from the time I could hold one, mostly for target shooting.  One day when I was about 8-10 years old a friend and I were out in the woods with our .22's.  We saw a squirrel and one of us took a shot at it and missed.  It was hilarious as we chased the squirrel through the woods with the squirrel always one step ahead of us.

I thought I'd get him once as he dove into a hollow log.  I put my barrel into the log and just as I was about to fire he bolted out the other end just like in a Looney Toons cartoon.

Not long after he went up a tree.  I was standing about 20-30 feet away looking up into the tree when he poked his head around the trunk and I dropped him.

I felt so bad that was the last time I killed anything (except in Aces High... I never feel bad about killing here).
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Psychological studies have shown that individuals who take pleasure in inflicting harm on animals are more likely to do so to humans. This should not be confused with people who simply kill or harm animals for practical purposes (such as food, lab experiment, animal husbandry). One of the known warning signs of certain psychopathologies, including anti-social personality disorder, also known as psychopathic personality disorder, is a history of torturing pets and small animals, a behavior known as zoosadism. According to the New York Times, "[t]he FBI has found that a history of cruelty to animals is one of the traits that regularly appears in its computer records of serial rapists and murderers, and the standard diagnostic and treatment manual for psychiatric and emotional disorders lists cruelty to animals a diagnostic criterion for conduct disorders. [1] "A survey of psychiatric patients who had repeatedly tortured dogs and cats found all of them had high levels of aggression toward people as well, including one patient who had murdered a young boy." [2]

Cruelty to animals is one of the three components of the MacDonald Triad, indicators of violent antisocial behavior in children and adolescents. According to the studies used to form this model, cruelty to animals is a common (but not with every case) behavior in children and adolescents who grow up to become serial killers and other violent criminals.

It has also been found that animal cruelty in children is frequently committed by children who have witnessed or been victims of abuse themselves. In two separate studies cited by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), roughly one-third of families suffering from domestic abuse indicated that at least one child had hurt or killed a pet.

I love to watch boxing, martial arts, fencing ect.

I remeber seeing a fight on tv, cant remeber what it was but these two guys beat the **** out of each other. yet at the end when one was declared the winner the shook hands and hugged.  

I have no problem with people slugging it out in a ring, I have no problem with extreme viloence such as ultimate fighting. SO LONG as the people doing it want to be there.

When someone harms an animal, I am sure that it does not want to be there.....

Beef Boullion base, 4 cups of water. 3 carrots and 2 cups of diced onions. 2 Taters cut into quarters and 1 clove of garlic... bring to a simmer.

While simmering bring up one MossBerg 12 Guage to shoulder height and peer out the backdoor... bag 3 squirrels.  Skin and quarter said tree rats and place evenly into the boiling pot.  Add a bit of flour to thickin the broth once the meat has turned a nice soft texture.

In a small pot add 3/4ths cup of water and instant rice... Place the stew rats on a low heat for 15 minutes.  Turn on Top Cops on TV while rice cooks.

During commercial check on Rice and Stew...  Fetch clean plates.  Answer the door and deny to the police of any gunfire in the area.  

Check stew...  Open up the best TV Dinner table thingy and place remote strategically...Rice on plate, add heaping helpins of said stew upon rice.

Kick back and enjoy...

My wife took one in as well, with me bichen the entire time that he's just gonna grow up & wreck the place up a bit. She felt bad for it because it was hairless & injured after being blown out of it's nest by a T-storm. Everyone feels bad for babies (nearly everyone) regardless of what it is, a rat or a human.

She asked what I thought she should name it & after much cursing under my breath I said "Lucky" because it's lucky I didn't find it first. Well, it was too hypothermic & dehydrated when she found it & it died after a couple days anyway, so I had to watch her bawl like a little girl & bury the danged thing. Stoopid rat.

Hurting an animal just for pleasure, and gloating about it reveals a lot about someone's personality.:(
