Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for November 26, 2020

Don’t forget the poachers. I hope you have a good taxidermist.

Why does this strip remind me of John Kerry and his unfortunate decision to go duck hunting in Ohio? But heck, at least no one (save a few geese according to Kerry ) was harmed, fast forward a few years and DICK Cheney going quail (not Dan) hunting in Texas. Here we had even more harmful consequences besides a tarnished image and Cheney’s gaffe merited a spoof on SNL. The moral is politicians and guns do not mix…..

No knife to gut? Not prepared.. not prepared!!!

I have a video game where the bullets home in on the targets without aiming. Now that is what I call high tech.

Wrong holiday.

At least the list doesn’t include a hunting blind!

couple of friends of mine, brothers, go boar hunting with flint locks. I shot, smooth bore. The famous story for them is when one saw a sow leading piglets, waiting for the end of the line knowing the boar was there. he fired, the boar rocked- 75 caliber soft lead ball, turned and charge. Dick’s brother wasn’t in a position for a good shot so dick “in the best tradition of british infantry fixed bayonet and prepared to receive boar.” The boar dropped dead just before he reached the tip-the bullet had gone through both lungs and the heart, it charges on just pure cussedness.

Wasn’t there a video of a rifleman who didn’t have the stock of the rifle firmly planted in the shoulder and Newton’s Third Law of Motion resulted in broken glass?

If he doesn’t brace the stock against a tree or something, that scope will put his eye out. A high powered rifle has a lot of recoil.

Yeah, baby!

He’s going to have a hard time finding lean meat shooting hunters.

Gotta keep down their numbers. Cull the herd, so to speak.

I do not approve of hunting. Except when the target is hunters!

“Raw, savage challenge”? Don’t tweak my whiskers, Portnoy. You’re a dolt out for revenge, that’s all. You’re an anti-human racist, speciesist, bigot.

And, besides, you’re a small game animal….
