It's tough out there !

Any dumbass who'll pull his firearm over a gopher, ON a road, in front of a line of cars, needs a job as a Walmart Greeter.....

I can't believe actual shooters think this is "funny."

If you actually believe the critter is a gopher, we might have found the dumbass. Would have much more chosen to see a video of a treehugger pick him up and put him in his pocket.

I really do respect police officers for the most part. It’s a dangerous and thankless job. There’s no way that I would touch that job for their salary. With that said, their is an idiot in every bunch. This guy shooting the ground hog after dancing around in the highway was the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a while. He has to know there is at least one cell phone in every car and someone is recording his dumbass.

should have shot a NUT BLASTER

In these days of PC: Should I feel bad if (while driving down one of our back country roads and come upon a groundhog in my lane) I aim for the head?

Goodyear tires would have been a better option..
Pull a gun on a ground hog? Stew- pid..

Dude, dunno where you're coming from assuming I have no experience with animals or life "in the eastern states"......

I've "tangled with" groundhogs and squeerrels and marmots and porcupines and otters and mink and beavers and skunks and coons and coyotes and possums and all sorts of dogs and cats with my bare hands...pulled live mushrats outta' their houses and bonked 'em on the ice.....well, mostly I wore gloves but, yeahhh, you could say we're acquainted. As far as road injuries, busted up deers and bears, yes, we shoot 'em gener'ly, one a' my guys shot one with the cops gun just a couple wks ago...... altho I'll never forget watching my buddy Stubs cartwheeling thru the headlites after straddling a liddle doe trying to cut it's throat..........

We called ditch-bears "lightsuckers" and only if you've pistolwhipped them under a Kel-Lite will you know what that means. It's all teeth..... heat, poppin' and white flashes.

"Pissed off??"

His OPTIONS??

"pound it with an asp???"

"DRIVE AWAY??"

Only an idiot would drive away while traffic's stopped. His JOB is to direct traffic until the poor wandering puppy gets off the road. Or help it.

Jeepers.....

That's a frickin' WOODCHUCK there on the road. About as scary as a line of ducklings......So huff it off, shoo it, kick it, push it with a stick. Open the trunk, grab the shovel and scoop it into the ditch.



just



wow


The guy's on his knees squared off against a charging WOODCHUCK!

I stand by my original statement, if this sort of thing constitutes a "shooting encounter" then the guy's probably not qualified to be a Walmart Greeter

I take it all back

Boy, Talk about an arm chair quarterback. I wish people like YOU (high and mighty) would have to walk in the officers shoes you are so ready to condemn. If you did,there would be a LOT less lip service. You would be thanking these guys instead of constantly complaining about what they did wrong. Just my take on your post and I REALLY DON'T Care IF YOU Like IT OR NOT.. Do me a favor. Go be a ride along with an officer in a high crime area. After that, I'd be interested in what you had to say.

LOL



just hard to argue with that, me .......

Tire iron or shovel to the head - no danger to others but darn dangerous to that silly groundhog.

A public road with ...who knows what???... on the other side. Bullets skip off things to their own rules. Absolutely unsafe to discharge like that with no real personal danger immediate.
