Imagine what the cia can do with the cartel and other enemies of the state allowed in by the 100's of 1000's the last 3.5 years?

It's a smorgasbord of options for them now..

I’m a flat runwayer.   
Shuttle landing facility is compensated for the curvature of the earth so it’s flat.

There are just have many 'outdoorsmen' who have seen a bigfoot that have misidentified someone as a deer and shot them.

It always boggles my mind how that can happen. 

They have to be shooting at mere shaking of branches without seeing what it is.

But if there is any doubt possible, you don't pull triggers.

Wouldn't you know it. A couple of clowns decided to do a crop circle last night, interesting.

I didn't see any flying saucer in that vid.

Why don't they just send a radio signal from orbit?

They do.  I've seen it.

There was an incident some 30yrs ago in my parts where some idiot Deer hunter shot another idiot Deer hunter.  Now, perforated-hunter being the duller of two knives had thrown the Deer (he'd previously shot) over his shoulders to carry it back to the truck.  So, it's understandable that someone at a distance might confuse a moving deer with it's head flopped over as "alive".  However, how one could miss a human being moving along ~under~ said Deer while wearing a blaze orange vest AND hat, is a little perplexing, without factoring in basic stupidity.... unless they knew each other, there is that.

That is an interesting edge case.  Never thought of that.  But that would be extremely rare. 

I read one article a guy got shot basically in back yard out cutting back tree limbs and such at the edge of his property.  He wasn't hunting so wasn't wearing a vest.  Probably did expect to get shot in his backyard.

I like fishing. ;)

Less than 150 yards...

Bigger mysteries to be concerned about imo...

You hear about the two flat earthers out deer hunting and they actually managed to kill one? They're dragging it back to camp and happen along another hunter. The hunter notices they are dragging the deer and the antlers are digging into the ground making it hard to drag. He suggest they drag the deer by the antlers instead. So they do. A while later one says to the other, that guy was right. This is a lot easier. The other one says yeah, but we sure are getting a long ways from camp.

Yeah there have been instances of people getting shot at less than 50 yards range. We can hunt here all year round, but during Feb/March we have the roar (deer mating season) - all the people after trophies come out and they have tendency to shoot at anything that moves. Blaze orange can also be a bit of a problem, as in low light it looks a bit like red deer colouring.

I don't hunt during the roar. Rest of the year is really for meat hunters, we tend to want to see what we are shooting (female/age/condition) and want good shot placement for best meat recovery.

That was my thought. 

Exactly what shot placement are they thinking they are going to get. 

How many crippled deer do these smooth-brains leave in their path if they are not unlucky enough to hit a person.
